Nintendo 3DS Leaked Photo (or B.S.?)
June 12th, 2010
With Nintendo’s likely E3 reveal of the 3DS coming this week, it was only natural that supposed spy shots of the new handheld would start to surface around the web. So here goes… Apparently, a Chinese blogger first came up with this rough sketch of what the 3DS might look like:
Then, the guys at Kotaku created a mockup of what the system might look like based on numerous bits of information they’ve gathered over the last few months. I really like the idea of the larger widescreen for the top half if that’s really the case – since the bottom touchscreen on the DSi has always been less of the focal point than the top screen.
Now, an image has surfaced on another Chinese website which looks a whole heck of a lot like the Kotaku mockup. So, is this the real deal, or just another bit of clever Photoshoppery? You guys be the judge:
I’m calling Photoshop, but I could be wrong – I certainly have been before. Chances are that all will be revealed this week at Nintendo’s E3 press conference, which will be carried live at e3.nintendo.com starting at 9am Pacific time on Tuesday, 6/15.

I think this could very well be it other than the fact I don’t see a analog stick. I hope to God it has at least one huge 3D screen like that because that will be sweet. I saw someone post questioning how 3D would work with a touch screen because how do you precisely touch 3D and that really gave me the idea the bottom screen won’t be in 3D and now that I see this it all begins to add up.
Am I the only one that noticed how the AXYB buttons are oriented ala gamecube, not ala Xbox, like the othes DS’s? It seems kinda hard to pull that off with photoshop.
I noticed it and I think there is something to it. I mean the buttons would probably be more accessible in that orientation and lack of an analog stick kind of suprises me but we will see.
u’d have to be a fuking retard to think that the bottom pic was real. LOOK at the fuking buttons, its a fuking diagonal shit positioning. And the FUKING CONTROL PAD IS NOT PARALLEL WITH THE CONSOLE. JUST FUKING LOOK AT THE LINE OF THE HINGE AND THE LINE OF THE CONTROL PAD. THEY ARE FUKING OBVIOUSLY NOT PARALLEL. FUK ITS NOT REAL
The top screen totally looks Photoshopped in. This is NOT the real deal. I’ll bet that Nintendo has something quite radically different in store when they reveal the REAL 3DS (or whatever they eventually call it)…
And how many freakin’ F bombs do you really need to lay on us here?
that’s pretty cool.
but I reckon it’s fake, it looks too much like the other DSes.
and what’s with the button above the d-pad? I couldn’t imagine them putting the power switch back up there. (the old one is actually still there in the pic aswell.)
and weren’t the screens going to be connected?
doesn’t look like much though was put into it.
Wow Its Not Fake.
And Lets Have NO Debate Over It. :/
