Nintendo is going to launch officially its upcoming 3DS handheld console today, which offers 3D gaming without the need for glasses, at an event in Amsterdam.
The 3DS' screen uses a special layer that allows each of the user's eyes to see a different set of pixels, producing a stereoscopic effect. Like previous iterations of the DS, it also has a second screen, in 2D with a stylus, and WiFi internet access.
The 3DS' stereoscopic capability is viewed as a weapon for Nintendo in its battle against gaming on smartphones, which have become more sophisticated since the launch of the highly successful original DS in 2005.
