    I like 3D. I wish 3D would catch on, and technologies would advance. I’d LOVE to watch sports, on a 90 inch projection screen, in native 3D.

    But 3D seems to be the “fetch” of the tech world. It’s just not going to be a thing.

      I’m with you there. It was very frustrating when Nintendo made the most successful iteration of this so far to hear a bunch of people crap on it only to turn around and go nuts over VR tech that had all the same drawbacks AND made you puke.

      I pull out a 3DS every now and then still and man, after not using one for a while it still feels like a magic trick.

        With VR an important aspect you’re not mentioning is the 3D movement you are now able to do, inhabiting the played character in a more true to form way

      It’s just not going to be a thing.

      It will be, if they can figure out how to deliver a good glasses-free affordable experience for a shared screen.

      Thus far, it’s only been single user screens that have been able to do glasses free at an inexpensive cost like the 3DS and even this article is about a monitor.

      For big shared screens like TVs it’s always glasses or glasses-free, but prohibitively expensive. And that’s what kills 3D every time, the fucking glasses.

      Probably faster to just wait for holodeck-like tech
