Gaming News - G4TV: Nintendo 3DS May Get Chat

​

Nintendo's 3D handheld the 3DS may get 3D video chat. According to Nintendo's Satoru Iwata speaking to Forbes, "Technologically speaking, a variety of different things are possible with the 3DS, for example, 3-D video chat."

Hmm, it may be technologically possible, but design-wise, it will present a challenge. As Kotaku points out, the camera for the 3DS is on the outside of the device, so it's mysterious how that chat would work.

It's possible, though, definitely. Here's proof: The MasterImage company makes displays that use a similar technology to the 3DS, and they already have 3D video chat. Check out this interview with MasterImage's president. He details how his device already offers 3D chat:
