任天堂已经透露,它将在即将举行的E3游戏节目中展示DS手持游戏机的下一次迭代,它将发挥出惊人的新功能:无眼镜的3D显示器技术。这是击败苹果在手持视频游戏领域中越来越多的主导地位的尝试。
DS 3-D(暂定“ 3DS”)将与上一代游戏具有后退兼容性,但是将有一些新的标题来利用其3D功能。三维系统的惊人之处在于,您可以享受“无需任何特殊眼镜的效果”。任天堂’s not revealing the technology behind how this works, but it’s clear that the company’s been working on it for a while–as Kotaku notes there were rumors earlier in the year that the next-gen DS would have “highly detailed graphics” and motion sensing, obviously tapping into the Wii’s vibe.
3-D is a tech that’s about to hit the big time in a number of ways–3-D TVs are soon to be common, 3-D movies are coming out in increasing numbers, and 3-D monitors for desktop gaming are already on sale. Hence Nintendo’s cleverly bringing this hot new tech into its market-leading portable console to maintain the attractiveness of the DS.
但这显然是对苹果的拼命行动。最近的一项研究表明,iPhone和iPod Touch成功地从Sony的PSP和Nintendo的DS中成功偷走了20%的手持游戏市场,从上一年的5%增长。这只是热门销售的iPod和iPhone-apple,以iPad的形式在途中获得了范式定义的新手持式。
Flurry Analytics已经在iPhone/iPad开发人员人群中进行了研究,并发现了一个统计数据,该统计数据将使Nintendo的高管对他们的未来收入更加紧张:似乎有44%的应用程序正在为即将到来的iPad进行测试。This makes sense, of course, since the iPad’s larger screen can make for a more complex and visually-arresting game experience than the iPhone, while still coming with the multitouch and accelerometer controls that are often utilized for iPhone games–and its beefier CPU will help matters too.
但是,对于游戏机来说,对iPad有一个明显的反驳,这就是它的价格。尽管iPad的入门级价格实际上是$ 500的惊人便宜,但这远远超过了DS,甚至PSP的成本都要多。它将iPad置于许多父母认为可以接受给孩子的礼物的价格范围之上 - DS显然已经缝制了一个市场。But we are as yet clueless about how much the DS 3-D will cost, and it seems likely that it won’t be cheap–the specialist hardware will be custom-made for Nintendo, and there will be increased processing requirements to support the more complex graphics. The timing of this 3-D console news is also interesting, since theDSI XL甚至还没有出售,而且已经花费了190美元。
