Nintendo 3DS

Apparently Nintendo intentionally made the contrast lower when playing GBA games to reduce blocking. It would be nice to be able to disable that though.

If you forcibly disable the scaling by holding Start on boot-up, I think it disables this contrast reduction too.

Yeah i noticed this, just sooo tiny.....ah well its free just thought it was strange as i never notice ghosting in anything else on the system.

Either some people are waaaay too fussy or you have faulty machines.

I've tried Kirby, Wario 4 and Yoshi on mine since yesterday and to me they look great, much better than the ****ty job Nintendo have done with DS games!

Guess i'm waaaay too fussy then......also have you actually tried yoshi's island yet? thats the game thats being fussed over after all.

Metroid fusion looks fine though too.

All the new model 3ds consoles have duller screens than the launch models, Did you do a system transfer?

I'm on a launch day 3DS. It's not the 3DS, it's how the GBA games are being displayed.

No I've not tried Yoshi's Island yet on mine, PaTaito. I've only used the OTHER free Yoshi GBA game we got....

To be fair though, what were people expecting exactly? The 3DS is **** at emulating previous gen games, this is not new information!

Its not about emulation, its about ghosting. Something that considering nothing else ghosts, came as a suprise.....any go try it for yourself

Glad you are so happy overall though fella.

I have tried it myself (first level at least) If there's ghosting beyond that then it would strike me as very odd, but there certainly wasn't any ghosting from what I experienced - certainly not ghosting on a PSP (ie noticeable) level.

I think it's just a haze caused by the scaling issues.

It actually reminded me of psp1000 ghostiing, but as its such a bright game it stood out. Funny thing is i dont notice on some of the other equally bright games.

Anyway just an observation.

Black launch day model....makes me feel glad i kept it though knowing the screens got worse.

The only noticeable ghosting I get is on badly done 3D games and on the odd stand out sections of OoT.

Press start or select while it's loading and you get the native resolution

[Dogg Thang]

Yes but it's postage stamp size unfortunately. Not all that different from playing on the GBA Micro though!

Just got the 3D remake of Kid Icarus it's pretty spiffy, one of the nicer freebies.

If anyones qualified for it & wondering how you get it, you have to goto your club nintendo account & select it from the goods shop. You will be given a code to enter, go into the e-shop on your 3DS and goto the account options & select the redeem code option, put the code you got in there & it will allow you to download it.

You're using a Japanese 3DS, right? Can't find it on my UK machine/account.
