Your Netflix Instant Queue Arrives on 3DS Today

Because we all need new places to rewatch Party Down.

Unless you're a shareholder, conversations about Netflix this week haven't been positive, as the company decided to raise subscription prices by decoupling streaming and disc price plans.

If you're sticking with Netflix, though, there's one more platform to stream through. Nintendo and Netflix are following up on a promise from the Game Developers Conference to deliver an application for 3DS. Today, the eShop brings Netflix.

The entirety of your content will, obviously, be available in 2D, but given the 3DS' fancy non-glasses 3D gimmick, there will be 3D content available through Netflix...eventually. As of right now, though, there isn't 3D content available through Netflix Instant--period.

When that switch happens, maybe we'll see 3D content available for 3DS users, too.
