3D Video Recording Comes To The Nintendo 3DS

Nintendo 3DS owners will be able to capture 3D video as part of today’s Nintendo 3DS System Update.

The Nintendo 3DS System Update gives Nintendo 3DS owners access to a range of new features and enhancements. This includes 3D video capture, able to record up to 10 minutes of 3D video.

The Nintendo 3DS video function also features some special filming options, including the Interval Shot feature, which allows you to record images in short timed intervals, producing a piece of time lapse footage.

There’s also the Frame Pick feature, which can be used to take many still images and join them together to create stop motion footage, in the same way an animation is created.

Nintendo 3DS owners will also be able to transfer content between their Nintendo 3DS systems. Software purchased from the Nintendo eShop, Nintendo eShop account funds, and save data including photographs and audio can now all be transferred between Nintendo 3DS consoles.

The Nintendo eShop will also receive an upgrade. Users will have the option to play demo versions of select Nintendo 3DS releases, enabling players to try a game before buying. There is also the option to conduct downloads whilst the system is in Sleep Mode, allowing multiple downloads to conveniently occur the next time users are not actively using their Nintendo 3DS.

Laurent Fischer, Managing Director Marketing & PR at Nintendo of Europe, said:

“We are always striving to enhance the features and functions of the Nintendo 3DS to bring new fun experiences to our fans and this upcoming System Update brings some of the most exciting updates yet.”
