A source from developer N Space has told Go Nintendo that Nintendo is hard at work developing a Nintendo 3DS headset which will launch sometime close to the debut of Heroes of Ruin. Nintendo has yet to confirm whether or not it’s developing such a peripheral, but it doesn’t sound too far-fetched if they are.

pakanaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!
There already is a 3DS headset but there isn’t any use for it yet. I think it’s made by BDA.
^This. It’s a headset that doubles as audio headphones. They have a square shape and a detachable microphone.
there is already a headset for 3DS
yes because wii speak was such a big success
yeah cause derp tiddly derpy derp
Yes because it is impossible to learn from your misstakes.
@Last, they better make good use of it, so i can rage against you noobs (6)
If they add video chat (like the one on the Wii U, and/or even connection between the two systems) this could be huge.
It definitely won’t convince CoD or BF players to buy the system though, so I guess Nintendo will choose a casual approach.
I actually never thought of Video Chat on 3DS, that would be amazing.
Do you really want CoD or BF players to buy this? I like not having 12 year olds screaming profanity at me while playing a game.
I never said that I wanted that. But for Nintendo’s sake I hope they sell the system to as many as possible. And you know well that you can easily mute the little bastards.
SKYPE 3DS…wait isn’t skype owned by microsoft…shit
Shit the Fuck
Microsoft hasn’t got a handheld
CrateBox 180 Portable, 3G only. Subscription $100 USD
=P
I remember having Skype on my PSP so I think it’s possible to see Skype on the 3DS. But I think this headset may be used in the next system update which may include the Nintendo Network. which would be very cool.
Probably. The original DS had one and the only thing I remember with voice chat for it was Diamond and Pearl, and I think Black and White. They should patch Uprising to work with this.
I used the original DS headset for in between games of Metroid Prime: Hunters. Still felt a bit useless, but they could make it work with the 3DS.
sounds cool. Id get it.
Now we can only hope for a voice chat application.
Unfortunately having tried heroes of ruin at pax and wanting to love it, I was bitterly dissapointed. The quest text was bland, and it was annoying having to use mana to even use a basic strike attack which ran out quickly. Maybe the game just wasn’t for me personally.
Monster Hunter 3G with online capabilities and this would be sweet.
A headset already exists and its made by power A. Check out my review here:

Nintendo had better make some of their online multiplayer be entirely competitive at some point, so as to not have the problem of constant angered shouting that shooting games with headsets have.
Nintendo is planning a lot of big things for us this year. This will be the year of Nintendo.
Leave luck to heaven.
