UPDATE: Corbie, our man at E3, has just been in touch with his first thoughts on the 3DS:
Played the 3DS in person and it's unreal. The level of depth and clarity on the screen is incredible. And the graphics potential has to be at least on par with Wii, maybe even better. Analog stick was smooth and responsive. I can't wait to get more time with it. Heading back to the LA Convention Center for booth visits and interview. I'll post more stuff later this evening.Today at Nintendo's E3 2010 press conference we got the first look at the company's new handheld, the 3DS. No alternative name was announced for the machine and there was no suggestion this is a temporary name, so we can assume that Nintendo is sticking with the 3DS name until launch.
