Nintendo 3DS Hardware Includes Optional 3D Toggle, Stronger Anti-Piracy Measures
by Chris Faylor, May 10, 2010 9:00am PDTThough Nintendo is waiting until mid-June to properly debut its new portable game machine, the Nintendo 3DS, the company has confirmed a few new details about it.
The portable's three-dimensional visuals--achieved without the need for glasses thanks to a specialized display--can be toggled on and off due to health concerns, Nintendo president Saturo Iwata told Forbes during a recent chat in a Tokyo hotel.
In addition, the Nintendo 3DS--due to launch no later than March 2011 and confirmed to be backwards compatible with the software of both the vanilla Nintendo DS and the camera-equipped Nitnendo DSi--will also include stronger measures to prevent the use of pirated software and games, though Iwata refused to elaborate on the specifics.
"We fear a kind of thinking is become widespread that paying for software is meaningless," he said. "We have a strong sense of crisis about this problem."

I guess I was just trying to say making fun solely of the DS for having different versions is kinda silly with all the different variations of other systems out there, like say the PSP. Plus, at least each new version of the DS (up until the XL) honestly seemed like an improvement over the previous version.
