Nintendo's need to gather information and feedback about the current 3DS so they could make next iteration; so probably taking some time though.

3DS confirmed to have MP3 support.

I hope Nintendo doesn't do what they did with Wii. Launched with MP3 support then removed later with an update.

Where the 3DS does trump the PSP in terms of control, however, is with its new analogue nub – officially called the Circle Pad. While Sony’s first handheld had a flat nub with imprinted grip, Nintendo has opted for a concave surface, which acts as a nest for the thumb.

We find this analogue nub responsive, with a quick and definite snap back to centre once it it’s released. We had three handhelds to play with, however, and one did notice one particularly sticky Cicle Pad, which didn’t come all the way back to the middle if pushed to its boundaries. It’s important to say that only one device demonstrated this problem – but it could be a sign of nubby problems later on in the 3DS’ lifespan.

Out of the games we play, Nintendogs + Cats boasts some of the most profound depth, as our pets roam around a large living room. Accordingly, the slightest sideways rotation – even by as little as a degree – causes flickering of the image and the occasional split-second blackout.

Had a chance to test this out during my Hong Kong trip this week. Pretty interesting 3D this thing can generates but I gotta agree with the 3D slider. Its really really flimsy. Even a new one dat came fresh out of the box was a lil wobbly. Zzz

The 3DS doesn’t feel quite so expensive or solid as something like the Sony PSP. The D-pad, face and shoulder buttons are small with that distinctly ‘clicky’ feel, with clearly little room to move inside the body.

sadly, still no. even I'm waiting with bated breath. huhu.

if you want to talk about hardware, Sony NGP is better by leaps and bound. The only
reason to buy 3ds is 3d and also Nintendo game ler.
