Savii It's been a year since the 3DS was realised, and thought to myself, what browser is better?
Was the 3DS browser a waste of
precious time, or does it look over the DSi browser?
A couple of days ago, I went in a chatroom and announced that the 3DS browser was.. crappy. But it turns out that it was alot faster, and can support a few more file types.
It could also be possible to view websites and apps on websites in 3D one day, (I'm sure HB said he was going to work on that?)
We could also view photography in 3D from most file types, and save several to the Photo Gallery on our SD cards. It is also possible to upload photos, such as on the 3D photo gallery on here. (Only can upload photos on the 3DS for this website, in case anyone wanted to try)

But however, despite having alot more functions and space, we still have no flash player. Neither can we listen to music, play games etc. It also appears (this ruins it ALL for me), that for some reason, website pages do not fill up the screen. such as on some pages you can still scroll down and off the page.
Try this on our chatrooms!
We were used to being able to stay fixed in chats, but now we have to scroll to the right place. Now for some reason I find this incredibly annoying >.> To be honest i wouldnt care less what the browser did it if it didn't do that, but thats basically ruined it for me. I know it isn't tragic for you guys, but seriously?
I can't seem to find internet history, and the shortcuts on the menu are gone.
You could search, go back and forth pages, refresh the page, search from the google menu, open a little menu in the corner to find through the page, look at history, type, settings etc; but most of that is gone.
If anyone knows where/how to get/stop these things, please do say and i'll love you forever.

In my point of view... I despise it.
Except certain things c:

But what do you guys think, the 3ds or DSi browser was better?

Two years later, the browser on the New 3DS is getting HTML5 video.

3DS.It has the highlight searcher thingy and it supports more websites.

The DSi has the highlight-search thing too.

The 3DS automatically scrolls to chat for you on DSiPaint, so I think it's 3DSPaint's flaw not the 3DS's flaw. But if it really annoys you that much press and hold the down button on the +, when you enter a chat and it will scroll using the textbox.

Basically, the Nintendo3DS Browser was for users to quickly access the internet browser to search for education articles, or to cheat on some of their games. As for me, I sometimes use the web browser to access some cheats for some of my games. Plus, within the DSi Browser. you couldn't stop what you were doing real quick to look up a few things. If you tap the power button. It will restart the system. Which means you have to save your game real quick before closing it.

After all, I think the only thing I loved doing on the NintendoDSi Browser was painting on here. I usually use my brother's DSi whenever I wanted to paint. Even though, it was pretty cool painting pictures and 3-D. But I think it was harder to paint on the Nintendo3DS Browser. Because you had to hold your stylus on the screen for two seconds and use the highlighter to paint.

To top it off, I think their even. But that's just my opinion...

Thanks for sharing!

Combine the speed and file handling of the 3DS browser with the features of the DSi browser. Poof! An awesome browser!


I'll call it... Epicol!

Weird, I can watch videos, listen to music, and take screenshots. Maybe Safari's better.

The thing is, the browser was made to be able to run while other applications, namely games, were running as well. Thus, it had to be more limited. However, it having a flash player would be a terrible idea.

I still reckon Opera should've developed the browser for the 3DS.

My 3DS browser is better to me. From what I remember [my DSi is dead], the 3DS's browser is a lot faster.

Yep, the "Lawl your memory is fail, delete history for better web surfing"

The 3DS barely does that.
If nintendo is good enough with us, they may eventually add HTML5 and support youtube or Sound.

I like the 3DS browser MUCH better than the dsi one :/
The DSi sucks anyways.

Quoth Unknown Crazyman:
My DSi browser is fine.

BUT.




No matter how many times I delete history and cookies, I will get the low memory warning.


AND I never get the low memory warning on my 3DS unlike the DSi browser.

I have to say 3DS here. For me, it is way faster than my DSi browser ever was. Does it have flaws? Yes. But the advantages overpower them for me.

I think the dsi browser is best. My dsi connects WAAAY better than my 3ds. That is all I care about.

Flash will never happen for the DSi or 3DS browser.

However, HTML5 media is a possibility in the future for the netfront browser.

DSi

My router is crappy. So I dont get a good signal.
On the DSi it would just view what it could receive. but atleast it attempted to get it.
3DS will just say "Communication Error" And not do anything at all.
