Nintendo Repairs - 3DS
The world is now ready for 3D technology. 3D has been around for a while
however it is not until now that it has become feasible for it to be
implemented for ordinary use and at better quality. In the next 5 years
we’ll see more of 3D televisions, 3D cameras and of course 3D gaming.
Nintendo is the first to introduce gamers to 3D, with the release of 3DS in
March 2011. Even better, Nintendo 3DS means gamers are able to see their games in
3D view without the use of bulky 3D glasses.
The Nintendo 3DS feature two screens consistent with the Nintendo DS series;
the top being a stereoscopic 3D screen and the bottom screen non-3D, and 3D
camera made up of two outer cameras- the WQVGA cameras produce auto
stereoscopic 3D effects, meaning 3D glasses are not needed and enable 3D
photo and 3D video capturing.
The 3DS is backwards compatible with DS and DSi software so gamers can still
play their DS and DSi games on the 3DS, though they will of course be only
featured in 2D.
Quite a few new features have come on board the DS series, including the
3-axis accelerometer (motion sensor) and 3-axis gyroscopic sensor similar to
that used by Apple in its iPod Touch, iPhone and iPads. The Circle Pad
allows for analog control and the SD memory card capability allows users to
store 3D photos taken with the 3D camera as well as store music and sound
recordings. The Augmented Reality (AR) games feature as well as Street Pass
and Spot Pass are also cool new features of the 3DS.
Differing also from the previous DS models is the 3D depth slider button
which allows gamers to adjust the intensity of the 3D settings, and all 3DS
games can still be played in 2D when this button is turned down.
We provide all repair solutions for Nintendo 3DS. All repair services
include assessment of the problem/s, repair or replacement of parts using
genuine parts, and post-repair console testing.
