Nintendo 3DS

The Nintendo 3DS is capable of projecting stereoscopic 3D effects without the use of 3D glasses or additional accessories. It features backward compatibility with older Nintendo DS. The handheld offers new features such as the StreetPass and SpotPass tag modes, powered by Nintendo Network, an augmented reality, using its 3D cameras and the Virtual Console, which allows owners to download and play games originally released on older video game systems. It is also pre-loaded with various applications including: an online distribution store called Nintendo eShop, a social networking service called Miiverse; an Internet Browser, the Netflix and YouTube streaming video services; Nintendo Video; a messaging application called Swapnote and Mii Maker.

The Nintendo 3DS was first released worldwide beginning on March 2011 but a larger model of the console, the Nintendo 3DS XL, was released worldwide beginning in August 2012, featuring screens that are 90% larger than the original Nintendo 3DS. Also, an "entry-level" version of the console, the Nintendo 2DS, was released on October 12, 2013, while still playing Nintendo 3DS and DS games, it removes the autostereoscopic (3D) functionality and changes the form factor to a fixed, "slate" design.

  • October 16, 1962. The President of the United States received word that the Soviet Union had deployed nuclear missiles in Cuba. The world trembled in fear as the prospect of nuclear war loomed ever closer. After days of tense negotiations, the Soviets finally agreed on the 28th to withdraw their missiles from Cuban soil. With the resolution of this incident, later to be known as the Cuban Missile Crisis, it seemed that humanity had survived yet another threat to its existence.

    However, there was a secret condition in the deal that put an end to the crisis. Nokolai Stepanovich Sokolov, a Soviet scientist who had defected to the West, was to be sent back to the Soviet Union. The U.S. government agreed to this stipulation, and returned Sokolov back to his native land. Little did they know that Sokolov was to be the designer of a nightmarish weapon. Now, with Sokolov back in their hands, the Soviets are ready to resume its development. If this weapon is completed, it will mark the beginning of a new age of fear.

    August 1964. Realizing at last the urgency of the situation, the CIA forms a plan to recapture Sokolov. They dispatch the covert FOX unit to Sokolov's research facility, located to the south of the great Soviet fortress of Groznyj Grad. Led by former SAS member Major Zero, FOX is a next-generation special-forces unit that operates both as a specialized combat group and as a covert intelligence outfit. The FOX unit's modus operandi is to send a single agent, backed by radio support from afar, into enemy territory to carry out solo sneaking missions.
