Stephanie Ethier, senior analyst of In-Stat (News – Alert), said the upgrade of 3D technology in handheld game consoles will happen faster than any other segment such as mobile phones in the coming year.
This is because of the two leading handheld game companies who want something different and new to attract customers and differentiate from one another in the fast growing hand held game console market. 3D technology will be a big differentiator in this category.
Every game console manufacturer is now taking the transition from 2D technology to 3D technology very seriously. The rise of games with 3D environments such as Star Fox and Virtual Racing made manufacturers sit up and take notice of the potential of 3D environment.
The 3D environments in games from different manufacturers were widely marketed and they opened doors to more complex games which prove to be as realistic as possible. Now consumers have games made from movies such as Legend of Zelda and Golden Eye 007.
There has been a decline in cartridges with the rise of CDs and after some time there will be no use of CDs as games will be in built-in hard drives of the game consoles.
TMC (News – Alert) had also reported about how the interest of the users in 3D gaming goes beyond the avid gamer. The gamers require more 3D education.
