As a fan of Nintendo's attitude towards innovation over graphics I was impressed with the idea of 3D on a handheld.
As many people think, at first glance it wont look much different than a DS Lite, or the many remakes of the DS. With only a new layout and an analogue pad it hardly seems worth it, but then the 3D comes into play and the game changes.
I was sceptical if it would work as well as the people on the adverts exclaimed.
First impressions were mixed, the 3D takes getting used to, but once my eyes adjusted it was very impressive.
Pick of the 3D
Out of the launch games Pilot Wings stands out. Even with a similar island (and indeed one we've seen before in Wii Sports Resort) and gameplay as the N64, the 3D makes the game new. Flying around Wuhu island is the best way to experience the next generation of handheld gaming.
