During the recent Nintendo Conference 2010, Craig Harris from IGN learned that the price for the Japanese version will be ¥25,000, or $298 in good old US money. We have yet to learn how much the 3DS will cost in either North America or the UK, but we do know that the color choices will be aqua blue and cosmo black to start.

That was not the only thing announced during the Conference, there is to also be a special edition Super Mario DSi LL. Do not get too excited as there is no change to the hardware; we can tell you that the release date will be October 28th and the price will be ¥18,000.

I am still not certain how popular the 3D version of the Nintendo DS will be, and I also have doubts about how long a child or adult come to that should be playing a 3D device. Every time I go to see a 3D movie I come out of the cinema with a headache, and I know that I am no the only one.

Daniel Chubb has written an article on the “PS3 3D and Wii 2 3D Gaming”, it is certainly worth a read to draw your own conclusions about the future of such technology.
