The Nintendo 3DS is the true successor to the Nintendo DS while keeping some of the upgrades introduced with the Nintendo DSi.
Features
This 3DS's most notable new feature is the ability to display games in stereoscopic 3D without the need for special glasses. A slider controls the amount of depth that's viewable, even go so far as to turn off the effect altogether. It's based on the design of the DS with many improvements. The upper screen is now slightly wider and the touch screen is now slightly smaller. An analog stick, called a Slide Pad, is above the D-Pad. The 3DS also boasts both gyro sensor and motion sensor technology. The 3DS charges by setting it inside a cradle which then plugs into an outlet.
Backwards Compatiblity
The Nintendo 3DS is compatible with NIntendo DS and Nintendo DSi cartridges. It is currently unknown but highly likely if it is compatible with DSiWare.
