Any other 3D Vision users pick up a 3DS?
  2 / 2    
I just bought SSF4 yesterday and you're right, oblivioner, it does have a pretty decent amount of AA. It's still not perfect, but it's heaps better than Pilotwings or the 3DS's menu objects.

Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars also appears to have no AA, which I'm disappointed with since the game is otherwise looks pretty good. It seems to take more inspiration from Fire Emblem than Advance Wars for its combat (I miss the whole capture-to-get-funds thing from AW though) but the dialog is typical mediocre Tom Clancy game material, which I found disappointing. I was hoping for a meatier story with dialog I could get into. I think I was overall just hoping too much for a game exactly like Advance Wars. I really hope Nintendo is working on one of those for the 3DS. Otherwise, though, the gameplay of Shadow Wars is probably the best of the launch games if you're into turn based strategy.

More games definitely need to employ AA though on a system with such a meager resolution. Jaggies really stick out like a sore thumb on the screen no matter how far away you hold it.

So far just Pilotwings, Ghost Recon, and SSF4 for me - with Rayman 3D on the way from Amazon thanks to their great $25 credit offer from pre-ordering the 3DS. I wonder why it would have ghosting though. I didn't think ghosting was possible on the 3DS as long as you held it at the sweetspot since your eyes are receiving separate images and the usual reasons for ghosting (LCD shutters not syncing up/not completely blocking the white/polarized lenses not completely blocking out everything) are absent. I wonder if it has something to do with the level of separation used.

Got mine last night. So far I've only played pilot wings and I have to say I am impressed. I keep forgetting I'm not wearing 3d glasses, it's so weird. Man, kids these days
dont know how lucky they are! Anyway, while the 3d effect is great, and some things literally appear to jump out of the screen, I noticed a heavy amount of ghosting in pilot wings.
Maybe it's just this title, but it happens at every level of separation. Maybe its just my eyes? Who knows I didn't think ghosting on this device was possible either.. I'm going to pick up a new game or two today at work and see if they fair better. SSF4 sounds promising.

Remember that the 3ds has a sweetspot for 3d that besides sideways also goes depthwise. Mine works best at ~25-30 centimetres from my eyes.

Anyone mess around with the 3d photos they took? You can use the analog nub to adjust depth vs convergence. Pretty neat depending on the picture. I had a friend give me the finger and you can really get his hand popping way out of the screen this way, really cool.

^thanks for the tip! Picked up street fighter yesterday and have to say I'm really impressed. The quality is much better than pilot wings, hardly any cross talk and the game itself is quite fun. Got my arse beat 10 times in a row but it's till fun! I think I'm just tripping on the 3d right now and not focusing on gameplay. There is a HELL if allot depth in this thing though. It's awesome. I want more pop out but I guess that will depend on the title. Loving it !!
