An Overview of Nintendo 3DS

2011-02-24T21:23:00.000-08:00

Market of Gaming consoles is again gear up with Nintendo 3DS. Game lovers are much excited for it. The launch of 3DS is scheduled for 27th March, 2011.

Recently, Game Hunters gave an exclusive analysis about it, “…The 3DS is very close in size to the DSi, which is impressive considering how much Nintendo has crammed into the 3DS. It's just over 5 inches wide and less than 3 inches thick when closed. It also weighs about 8 ounces.

Readers are likely aware of the two external cameras for 3-D images, the internal camera, circle pad controls, motion and gyroscope sensors, and the widescreen 3-D display with adjustable slider.

But the 3DS also sports some subtle yet interesting tweaks to the device's design. A flat panel sits underneath the touch-screen where the home, start and select buttons reside. Since 3DS cartridges are slightly bigger than regular DS titles, the cartridge slot is larger too. The device also plays standard DS games for those users with a large DS collection. The 3DS adds a nifty extendable stylus, making it a bit easier to work with the touch-screen.

The 3DS home screen experiences a slight overhaul as well. Software choices are laid out a lot like apps on a smartphone, and users can tap certain icons to pull up the game or software they choose.”

About the playing experience of a game it writes, “…The 3DS will also include augmented-reality cards players view through the device's cameras for additional mini-games. The cards feature a block with a question mark, which users might recognize from the Super Mario Bros. franchise. After locating the card with the cameras and maintaining a certain distance, a box pops up initiating the game.

The game was brief but fun to explore. A series of bull's-eyes pop up that players must shoot, culminating in a showdown with a dragon. Through the view of the 3DS, players will see the surface beneath the card move and bounce around. It's not clear how many of these cards are included, but the AR games are promising.

Of course, all this is happening in 3-D, so viewers will watch the dragon lunge toward the screen or the goofy flying faces in Face Raiders zip back and forth. The glasses-free 3-D works great, and the slider lets users tailor the 3-D experience to their liking.” It is the most impressive gadget after Sony Successor to PlayStation Portable.

Sony Unveiled Successor to PlayStation Portable

2011-01-28T07:55:00.000-08:00

Recently, Sony revealed the first details on a long-rumored successor to their struggling PlayStation Portable platform.

An online news portal - content.usatoday.com/communities/gamehunters, writes about it, “The next generation portable, code-named NGP, is scheduled to hit stores later this year.

Revealed during an event in Japan early Thursday, the NGP will feature a 5-inch OLED touchscreen, front- and rear-facing cameras, gyroscope and accelerometer, Wi-Fi and 3G support, and built-in GPS.

The device includes two thumbsticks, addressing a big complaint against the PlayStation Portable.

NGP will also introduce a new software format for games. Each title will be released on a small card using flash memory, and allow users to store downloadable content and their game saves on the card.

Further it adds, “Along with NGP, Sony also announced the PlayStation Suite, a PlayStation store of sorts that will deliver titles -- such as classics from the library of the original PlayStation -- to Android-based devices. The Suite requires Android users to have Android 2.3 operating system, code-named Gingerbread.

Sony did not offer details on what the device or games would cost.

The NGP enters a very competitive portable gaming market, with Nintendo's DS dominating the field and Apple's iPod Touch continuing to gain ground. Nintendo will release a 3-D capable DS in March.”

However, Sony had revealed features of NGP on its blog - blog.us.playstation.com. It had written, “Today in Tokyo, Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. announced the next generation portable entertainment system (codename: NGP). NGP will make its debut at the end of the 2011, but here’s everything you need to know right now.”

You can read the features of NGP at the official blog of Play Station. Announcement about the launch of Sony PlayStation Portable had been made earlier.

Sony Portable PlayStation To Be Launched in Next Week

2011-01-19T05:38:00.000-08:00

Today, www.bloomberg.com, an online news portal reported the plans of Sony to launch PlayStation Portable in next week.

The news portal writes, “Sony, the world’s second-largest maker of portable game players, will also outline a strategy to use its networked entertainment services to share games, movies and music among handheld products, TVs and other devices, said one person, who declined to be identified because the plan isn’t public.”

Further it writes, “With the updated portable player and the Sony Ericsson touch-screen smartphone to be shown at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, the Tokyo-based company aims to gain market share in markets dominated by Nintendo Co. and Apple Inc., according to one of the people, whose company makes mobile-phone software and was briefed on the plans.”

The news portal quotes a statement of Patrick Seybold also, “Patrick Seybold, a Sony spokesman, declined to say whether the Jan. 27 briefing will include the announcement of a new portable product.

The company has had trouble gaining traction with the PSP, dubbed the “Walkman of the 21st Century” by former PlayStation head Ken Kutaragi. Introduced in late 2004, the PSP has failed to catch up to the popularity of Nintendo’s products, selling 18.5 million units in the U.S. to the Nintendo DS family’s 47.4 million, according to researcher NPD Group.”

In the review the news portal writes, “Sony rose 0.3 percent to 2,961 yen as of 12:47 p.m. on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, same as the benchmark Nikkei 225 Stock Average. Nintendo added 0.2 percent in Osaka.

The original PlayStation Portable required retailers to stock, and consumers to buy, a proprietary storage format called the universal media disc. With the PSP Go, released in 2009, Sony did away with the disc drive by offering only wireless downloads of games. We had heard about Sony Ericsson PlayStation phone also recently.

Gran Turismo 5 of Sony to Be Launched in November

2010-11-14T21:29:00.000-08:00

Recently, Sony announced the release date of Gran Turismo 5. It is the much awaited racing title Gran Turismo 5 of Sony. The company already has announced the PlayStation 3 exclusive is slated to hit stores on November 24.

The game will ship in three different editions, standard, collector’s and “signature.” Signature edition of the game comes with the chance to win a real-life Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG in ‘Obsidian Black.’

The most popular gaming portal - content.usatoday.com, writes about it in its gaming community, “The latest edition of Sony's racing franchise will feature 950 cars, including NASCAR rides and sports cars such as the Mercedes Benz SLS AMG.”

The portal quotes a statement of Kazunori Yamauchi, president of studio Polyphony Digital also, “When we created the original Gran Turismo back in 1997, we wanted to set a completely new precedent for the racing genre. With the technological leap onto PlayStation 3, our objective with Gran Turismo 5 was to create another great revolution which would not only satisfy our own high expectations, but would meet or even exceed the anticipation of the fans.”

Further the news portal quotes Yamauchi apology statement also, “I can only apologize to everyone for making you wait so long, and I hope that when you try out the wealth of driving experiences available in Gran Turismo 5, you will not be disappointed.”

The news portal analyses the Gran Turismo 5 as, “Fans of the series have been waiting very patiently for a new game. The last title, Gran Turismo 4, was released for the PlayStation 2 in 2005. Sony did release a shorter version of the sequel in 2008 called Gran Turismo 5 Prologue.

Last month, Sony pushed back the original November 2 release date to give developers some additional time tweaking the game.” It is one of the best moments in gaming technology like Sony Ericsson PlayStation phone.

Sony Ericsson PlayStation Phone Coming

2010-10-30T20:46:00.000-07:00

Recently, the news came in light as a rumor that Sony Ericsson PlayStation phone is coming. So, we can say that Smartphones have been entering into the portable consoles market.

Now, it is not the rumor because there are many evidences for it such as photos of Sony Ericsson PlayStation phone. The console will come with a 1GHz Qualcomm CPU, 512 MB of RAM, 1GB ROM and a microSD card slot.

Price of Sony Ericsson PlayStation phone is yet to be declared now. Currently, the device has not been announced officially.

The most popular tech news portal - www.engadget.com, writes about Sony Ericsson PlayStation phone, “…The device snapped up top (and in our gallery below) is sporting a 1GHz Qualcomm MSM8655 (a chip similar to the one found in the G2, but 200MHz faster), 512MB of RAM, 1GB of ROM, and the screen is in the range of 3.7 to 4.1 inches. Looking almost identical to the mockup we hit you with this summer, the handset does indeed have a long touchpad in the center which is apparently multitouch, and you can see in the photos that it's still bearing those familiar PlayStation shoulder buttons. For Sony buffs, you'll be interested to know that there's no Memory Stick slot here, but there is support for microSD cards.”

Further it adds, “The particular model in these shots is still in prototyping mode. As such, the unit doesn't have a custom skin (not even SE's Timescape design seen on the Xperia devices), and is said to be rather buggy. We're digging into more facts as we speak, but it's likely that much of what we reported earlier is still accurate, and though the device could still be headed for a 2010 release, 2011 is looking much more realistic. Still, there's a lot of time between now and the holidays... so keep your fingers crossed!”

It is really an amazing news story in the gaming consoles segment like HP Swing motion sensing game console.

Microsoft Will Launch Gears of War 3 in April 2011

2010-04-11T18:31:00.001-07:00

Recently, Microsoft announced about the next series of Gears of War, a third-person shooter video game. The game would be released in April 2011.

About the announcement, www.wired.com, reports, “Things were supposed to go much differently: Gears of War designer Cliff Bleszinski was scheduled to appear on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon Thursday, where he was expected to announce the game. But his slot on the show was rescheduled to Monday.”

About the availability the news portal writes, “Unfortunately, nobody told the person in charge of Xbox 360 dashboard updates about the postponement of the game’s big reveal. Gamers who turned on their Xbox 360 this morning saw an ad touting the announcement that was never officially made.”

“Gears of War” is the most popular video game on Xbox 360 and PC. It was the most popular and fast-selling video game of 2006. Gears of War sold over three million copies in just ten weeks in 2006.

“Gears of War” is known as the most popular third-person shooter game. About the release of Gears of War, 360.kombo.com, reports, “Everyone is human, and humans make mistakes. Microsoft made it clear today that their staff is no exception. It appears that whoever manages the ads on Xbox Live let an announcement slip a little early, and a big one at that. The ad (pictured above) confirms the release of Gears of War 3, which is set to conclude the "epic story" when it allegedly hits stores one year from now.

As many of you know, Cliff Bleszinski will be making an announcement on the Jimmy Fallon show Monday night. However, he was originally supposed to be on the show Friday night, but was rescheduled for Monday at the last minute, so it's easy to see how a lack of communication within Microsoft's Xbox Live ad team could result in this little mishap. Unfortunately someone is going pay dearly for this error. Communication is key!”

Now, the series of the biggest action and adventure will be introduced within a year by Microsoft as Gears of War 3. Background scenes, action and weapons are very live of the game.

Nintendo Announced To Launch Nintendo 3D Portable Game Console

2010-03-24T01:36:00.000-07:00

Recently, Nintendo announced to launch Nintendo 3D portable game console. The new video gaming console will be known as Nintendo 3DS. The console will unveil by March next year.

On this game console, games can be enjoyed with 3D effects without the need for special glasses, according to the announcement of company. Nintendo Co. Ltd. is the gaming giant of Japan.

Nintendo has announced to launch Nintendo 3DS which is a portable gaming console with three-dimensional graphics.

We already have seen the use of 3D graphics and visual effects in the US entertainment. The biggest effect of 3D came in light recently with Avatar and Alice in the Wonderland.

In the press releases about Nintendo 3D portable game console, the company says, “Nintendo 3DS will succeed the company's popular Nintendo DS series of game consoles, the collective sales of which reached 125 million units in 2009. Nintendo was quick to assure its customers that that the Nintendo 3DS will be backwards-compatible with games designed for the Nintendo DS as well as the Nintendo DSi.”

Nintendo 3DS will be held in Los Angeles in the US on June 15 this year in the upcoming E3 consumer electronics Show.

In the comparison of Nintendo 3DS, news.yahoo.com, an online news portal, writes, “Sony is also aiming to make its PlayStation 3 compatible with 3D games but, unlike Nintendo's planned device, users are expected to have to buy a new television and special glasses to enjoy 3D images.

Many experts think consumers are unlikely to rush to buy the premium-priced 3D TVs due to the need for special glasses and because many people have already upgraded to high-definition sets in recent years.”

We already have shared our opinions about Nintendo DSi XL console and PlayStation 3. Now, Nintendo 3D portable game console as Nintendo 3DS will try to grab the market of gaming consoles.

My Opinions about Nintendo DSi XL Console

2010-03-07T08:28:00.000-08:00

Recently, I went through some review of Nintendo DSi XL Console. At first, I went through Telegraph.co.uk review about Nintendo DSiXL console. The news portal writes about the console, “…The XL’s outward design is clearly aimed at a more mature crowd than before, tapping into the success that Nintendo’s handheld has had over all ages. But there’s one thing that would get even the trendiest technophile drooling: those lovely, lovely screens. Flipping the XL open is a quite splendid surprise, as you’re greeted by two massive displays. The original DSi’s screens measured in at a respectable 3.25 inches, but the XL’s 4.2inch displays really do make a lot of difference.”

Further it writes, “One downside is that the face buttons remain the same size as on the DSi. They were fairly small -and compacted a little too closely together- on the previous console as it was. On the bigger XL, they looks a little odd and are made a little more awkward when in use by the larger surface area of the console. Due to the device’s chunkiness and extra weight, it is naturally not as easy to play on the train, or carry around in your pocket. Those who prefer their handhelds for gaming on the go are still probably best served by the smaller -more portable- original DSi, as the functionality of the XL is exactly the same.

But for those who enjoy their DSi more as a home console, there’s a lot to recommend the XL. The luxurious, chunky stylus that comes with the console borders on the indulgent. It’s also more comfortable to use over long periods than the dinky original. The console also comes pre-loaded with the majestic Flipnote Studio, and some free Dr. Kawashima’s Brain Training exercises. With a RRP of £159.99 the XL is only £10 more expensive than the smaller DSi, and the overall quality of design and those wonderful screens make that a reasonable price difference.”

On the other hand, dailymail.co.uk writes about Nintendo DSiXL, “…There still isn't any sign of a snazzy motion-based game that takes advantage of this feature. Instead the cameras take decent close-up images, which can be customised with one of the 11 amusing lens effects.

You can slot in an SD card to backup your pictures or listen to music via the DSi sound application.”

We already have taken a look of Nintendo DS Lite and a market analysis of Nintendo Wii and Nintendo DS. Now, Nintendo DSi XL console is the biggest achievement of Nintendo.

Microsoft Unveiled New Controller for Xbox 360 Consoles

2009-07-29T23:01:00.000-07:00

It is not new news in gaming consoles world but it is one of the most popular news. In the month of June, 2009 Microsoft has unveiled its new controller for Xbox 360 gaming consoles at E3 in Los Angeles.

It is fully hands-free control system gaming consoles which will make users to use face recognition and motion sensors that allow playing games.

According to the Microsoft, it is still in the early stages and has been sent to all prototypes to the main game developers.

Mr Spielberg said about it,

"The video games industry has not allowed us the opportunity to cry, because we were too busy putting our adrenalin rush into the controller, or wherever we swing our arm with a Wii controller to get a result. Because of that, there is no room for a video game to break your heart. We now have a little more room to be a little more emotional with Natal technology than we did before."

In other statement he said,

"I think the technology looks very interesting but its success depends on the content and how easy it is to use. The other aspect is cost and how they will get it out to the user base.”

BBC.co.uk writes,

“The company unveiled 10 new games for the Xbox 360, including Beatles Rock Band, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Tony Hawk Ride and Final Fantasy XIII.

And in a follow up to the news that Microsoft had signed a deal with Sky to show content via Xbox Live, Microsoft said it had entered a joint agreement with Facebook and Twitter to create what Mr Kim called "full integration" between three of the largest social networking sites on the planet.”

It was already leaked as per the bbc.co.uk. It is the new aspect in gaming consoles industry. We are seeing as an upgrade version of Xbox 360 consoles. Still it is in the hand of developer to finalize.

A motion-sensing video game controller announced by Sony

2009-06-04T08:43:00.000-07:00

A motion-sensing video game controller announced by Sony. PlayStation consoles had complicated buttons and joysticks but now user will get a motion controller video game by Sony.

Richard Marks who is the Sony Computer Entertainment researcher provided a glimpse of the prototype controller in a press conference in Electronic Entertainment Expo in Los Angeles.

Marks said to the ET, "It's more distinct and cool feature is a glowing sphere on the end that the PlayStation 3 eye can track. We want to enable gamers. We expect very casual players.”

Now, Nintendo Wii offers controllers shaped like television remotes. It is just like car steering wheels, guns and bathroom scales.

About it Economics Times online magazine writes, “Xbox 360 consoles equipped with Natal will be able to respond to spoken commands for actions such as playing movies or connecting online with friends for video chats.

An expected completion date for Natal was not disclosed, but Microsoft on Monday released a software kit for video game makers interested in designing titles to take advantage of Natal's capabilities.”

Now, it seems in the gaming consoles industry Sony has taken one more step to attract customers. This feature will surely increase Sony market again. However, Sony is already world’s top gaming consoles seller.

No New Gaming Consoles Arriving Earlier than 2013

2009-05-10T00:37:00.000-07:00

In an analysis, PCWord.com announced that till 2013 no new gaming consoles are arriving in market. It is the analysis of Michael Pachter of Wedbush Morgan who says that next round of consoles is not arriving earlier than 2013.

According to Pachter, “fiddlesticks, calling the notion video game software sales always peak in a console cycle's fourth year an "urban legend." The magazine also analysis that till 2010 a new console can launch in market but next generation gaming consoles is not arriving before 2013.

In the reason it has given some solid logic but last one is impressive, “...publishers will resist the introduction of any video game hardware technology that requires a refresh of software, as the publishers have as yet to capitalize on the immense investments made in being competitive in the current cycle. We therefore think it is likely that the “next” generation will begin after 2013, meaning that software sales are likely to grow by a compounded annual rate of 6 – 10% for another five years. Because R&D costs are likely to flatten out with the benefits of a learning curve, we expect earnings leverage as the publishers are able to exploit R&D investments. In brief, we think that investors have it wrong so far this cycle, and think that investment in video game publishers will bear fruit for many years. However, pessimism about software sales in April could limit share price.”

It is truth that the age is competitive for all the products and market. In the competitive age if a company launch only stylish hardware without updated software then surely, in the market it would be fail.

In other news there is a rumor of Apple’s game consoles. It is being said that in coming future Apple is going to launch a game console. If it is true then analysis is not true because it ignores Apple.

If Apple launches a new gaming console then it surely will be a new hardware with updated software for new generation. That will be different from earlier and in market it will get huge popularity.

Xbox 360 gaming consoles Prices slashed by Microsoft

2009-04-18T22:29:00.000-07:00

It is not new news but I went through bbc.co.uk online magazine where I found some great news about gaming consoles which was prices down. It was September, 2008 when the news was published and according to the news Xbox models will drop by $50 its prices. Basic model will be cheaper than Nintendo Wii.

The price of Xbox 360 will be about half of PlayStation 3. It will be only for US then after for Japan but according to the Microsoft there is no plan to down prices in European country.

According to the Microsoft, “We wanted price of the basic model to dip below the psychologically important barrier of $200. About 75% of all console sales have been made below that price point.”

According to the above mentioned magazine, “The $199 price applies only to the Xbox 360 Arcade which has a 256MB memory unit on board rather than a hard drive. Adding a 20GB hard drive could add up to $90 to the total cost.”

In last August Microsoft had already announced that prices of Xbox 360 would fall in September in Japan. About the European country prices cut Microsoft announced, “Pricing is handled on a region-by-region basis. We do not have a price drop in this region to announce.”

Michael Pachter who is an analyst at Wedbush Morgan said, “They've got to make it up by penetrating more households and selling more software.” According to him it is the decision of Microsoft.

After the announcement it is being said in gaming consoles industry now, Nintendo and Sony will be out from the US gaming consoles market in competition of Xobx 360 consoles.

Halo 2 most playing game on Xbox gaming consoles

2009-02-13T04:57:00.000-08:00

In a review of gaming consoles I found that Halo 2 game is most playing game on Xbox gaming consoles. I want to share that on gaming consoles blog. The news is from an online gaming reviews blog. Below is the news:

"Introduction:

Halo 2 is the sequel of one of the most successful X-Box game Halo: Combat Evolved. It was a major hit in USA and other countries after its release on November 9, 2004. As it was the much awaited by game lover who were stunned by its prequel Halo 1, 1.3 million copies already been ordered before its release. Due to this record anticipation by game lovers it became the most popular video game of X-Box after its release.

Development:

Bungie Studio developed Halo 2 for X-Box initially. Later on Microsoft developed PC version of Halo 2, which was released on May 17, 2007. Pi studio also worked on its and developed editing tools, which helps players to create multiplayer maps.

Plot:

Story of Halo 2 starts in continuation with its prequel Halo: Combat Evolved. Storyline depicts future of twenty-sixth century where humans have colonized a large part of galaxies and are engaged in war against an alien race called “Covenant”. Player portray role of “Master Chief”, a cyborg and main character of game. In addition to this there is one more playable character, “The Arbiter”. Some changes had been made in gameplay of Halo 2 which are pleasing to the players especially who have played Halo 1 before.

Thumbs Up:

Although Halo 2 is equipped with every thing that a normal gamer loves; excellent graphics, superb gameplays and many more but the most impressive thing is game’s story. In many ways it is superior to Halo 1, especially actions in game are outstanding. One thing that is worth noticing is its great multiplayer support with many customization options, which was unavailable in Halo 1. Graphics and game designing are so excellent that sometimes players can just look it at some point of time when they are clueless about where to proceed. Music and soundtrack of Halo 2 is again a winner to its prequel. Soundtrack of Halo 2 makes use of Ambient Sound technology and Dolby 5.1 Digital surround sound. A perfect blend of action and story gives you a great experience when you will fight to survive and to save the earth.

Thumbs Down:

Although there is no major down point of Halo 2, yet there are some cons such as short campaigns, minor graphical faults at some points and co-op mode of game is limited to split screen only. At some point repetitive gameplay as in Halo 1 may bore players. But, inspite of these shortcomings Halo 2 is a fun and a great adventure.

Response:

As Halo 2 was much awaited by game lovers due to huge success of Halo 1, it got great response soon after its release on November 9, 2004. Halo 2 grossed $125 million within 24 hours of its release in Canada, Australia, New Zealand and USA. During first week of its launch in UK, around 260,000 copies were sold thus making it as third fastest selling title in UK. Up to May 2006 it was crowned as best selling X-Box game of all times with more than 8 million copies sold throughout the world. Halo 2 was also appreciated by critics for its great soundtrack and included multiplayer option. Halo 2 grabs many awards such as Game Critics Award for best console game in 2004, Game Developers Choice Award and Interactive Achievement Award for best audio effects and sound design in 2005."
