seriously though... i really really hope this is true. 256x192 TFT on these current models just really grinds my nerves... especially when jumping back and forth from my psp and nexus one]]>Apr 2nd 2010 1:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/02/nintendo-3ds-to-feature-3-4-inch-sharp-parallax-barrier-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/02/nintendo-3ds-to-feature-3-4-inch-sharp-parallax-barrier-display/Apr 2nd 2010 1:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/02/nintendo-3ds-to-feature-3-4-inch-sharp-parallax-barrier-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/02/nintendo-3ds-to-feature-3-4-inch-sharp-parallax-barrier-display/im interested in seeing how the 3DS processor will handle two 3D screens and still provide a quality gaming experience....I know I would never buy it, but hey its still interesting non-the-less. Should be great for the little kids though, theyll drool over it in my opinion]]>Apr 2nd 2010 1:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/02/nintendo-3ds-to-feature-3-4-inch-sharp-parallax-barrier-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/02/nintendo-3ds-to-feature-3-4-inch-sharp-parallax-barrier-display/

People still think only kids buy Nintendo handhelds? Maybe back when it was just the Game & Watch but I'd say around 80 percent of all Nintendo handheld owners are adults. Anyway Nintendo is probably partnered with nVidia and gonna toss the Tegra 2 in there.]]>Apr 2nd 2010 2:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/02/nintendo-3ds-to-feature-3-4-inch-sharp-parallax-barrier-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/02/nintendo-3ds-to-feature-3-4-inch-sharp-parallax-barrier-display/Apr 2nd 2010 3:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/02/nintendo-3ds-to-feature-3-4-inch-sharp-parallax-barrier-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/02/nintendo-3ds-to-feature-3-4-inch-sharp-parallax-barrier-display/Apr 2nd 2010 4:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/02/nintendo-3ds-to-feature-3-4-inch-sharp-parallax-barrier-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/02/nintendo-3ds-to-feature-3-4-inch-sharp-parallax-barrier-display/

Then dont scale at all. 1:1 pixel mapping can work, and that's what's done on the DS right now. Looks as good as it did on my GBA.

And as for 3D rendering, you don't HAVE to go 3D. Just leave it in 2D.]]>Apr 2nd 2010 9:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/02/nintendo-3ds-to-feature-3-4-inch-sharp-parallax-barrier-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/02/nintendo-3ds-to-feature-3-4-inch-sharp-parallax-barrier-display/Apr 2nd 2010 11:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/02/nintendo-3ds-to-feature-3-4-inch-sharp-parallax-barrier-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/02/nintendo-3ds-to-feature-3-4-inch-sharp-parallax-barrier-display/Apr 2nd 2010 1:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/02/nintendo-3ds-to-feature-3-4-inch-sharp-parallax-barrier-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/02/nintendo-3ds-to-feature-3-4-inch-sharp-parallax-barrier-display/WOOT!!!

Funny, because most of the people you hear play MW2 sound like they're 12 too, so I guess thats a "kids" game also.

Does any of that make sense? I remember reading somewhere that there was a glasses free 3d solution that would have whatever the resolution of the screen in order to project in stereoscopic.

Technically this would be cut in half for 3D mode. But still, that'd be pretty impressive. Especially going from 256x192 (per) on the current DS models. I kinda doubt Nintendo will though.
