Gamecube Could Do 3D

First Nintendo says they could have had the Natal, but they didn't want it, now they say they could of done 3D, but they had no wish to do that either.


The Gamecube, first released back in 2001, apparently had the capability to do 3D built in. The technology that has suddenly become the latest fad could of been used by Nintendo almost 9 years ago, but they chose not to.


Nintendo president, Iwata, was quoted as saying, "To tell you the truth, GameCube is secretly designed to load graphical circuits which display graphics for right and left eyes respectively, for a future possibility of realizing 3D gaming experience" Nintendo already "had interest in this technology,"


Nintendo however chose against using it. Nvidia currently has a peripheral that allows you to play games in 3D on your PC, and Sony is working on a similar item for their Playstation 3. 


So, was Nintendo right in not utilizing this feature? Probably. A lot of people already get dizzy playing video games, I'm not 3D would of helped out.
