That the future of gaming will go towards the implementation of the much talked about 3D technology, is something the folks at EA have no doubts about, but they don’t think we will be seeing its full impact until late next year, or even 2012.
This fact was stated by Electronic Arts CEO John Riccitiello, who enjoyed a few round of 3D gaming at the popular E3 event. Besides the fact that the experience was in his words unbelievable, the CEO is also worried about the hype that is created around it. This may produce a barrage of badly coded 3D games, which will also be “unbelievable”, but then in terms of headaches.
The reason the world isn’t ready to fully embrace the new 3D technology yet, is the lack of gamers owning 3D capable devices, but with giants like Sony and Samsung pushing the technology ahead, this could change in a very short period of time. Until that happens game developers are holding their breath, before to fully unleash the power of 3D technology.
But not all developers in the industry are sitting still while the 3D craze is starting to take shape. One company, known for taking its own course, and has a track record of going against the stream is Nintendo, and they might just have the thing for pulling off bringing 3D to the people, before everyone else has the chance. That company, as many of you may already have guessed is Nintendo, who is to release their new handheld: the DS3D, a new addition to their line of DS portable gaming consoles, and this new addition is fully equipped with the 3D gaming technology, which makes it just about the only gaming device that is capable of playing 3D without the need for any additional equipment. This in turn may enable them to gain a strong grip on the 3D market, long before anyone else gets the chance
