More 3DS news? Yessir. It is 3LL's most anticipated game (system) of 2011, after all.
In the most recent "Iwata Asks" feature, Shigeru Miyamoto mentioned that Nintendo president Satoru Iwata was interested in implementing 3D video recording into the 3DS. Here are the money quotes:
But Iwata-san also wants to include 3D video in the future! (laughs)I think it will be fun if we're able to include video recording capabilities with future updates.I have no idea, but when you take 3D photos and videos, is there some kind of capacity limit?An SD card goes in this slot.Oh, an SD card! Like two gigabytes?It comes with a 2-gigabyte card, but you can, for example, use a 32-gigabyte one as well.Oh, okay, I see. So you seriously can take as many as you want.Yes. Long videos, lots of photos, they'll fit."
It isn't clear if the "future update" Iwata mentions is going to be a downloadable firmware update or a new hardware iteration (a "3DSi", if you will), but it's cool to know that the brain trust at Nintendo are thinking about every possible way they can maximize the enjoyment people get out of the glasses-free 3D device.
