	I'm not too sure about American version of the Nintendo game 
machines, but the Japanese version has 3-D glasses for quite a while
now.  Several games that I've seen in my friend's collection has a
3-D logo on them, so I'm pretty sure they're still being produced
(in Japan, that is.  According to my friend, softwares for American
version of the Nintendo still lags the Japanese version by about
two years [the Japanese version uses a cartridge about half as 
small as the American version]).  

	Anyway, the glasses that my friend has use those ancient 
blue/red filters to accomplish the 3-D effects.  And the results
are abysmal, understandably.  I remember hearing my friend
mentioning that there's LCD-shutter type glasses out now, but I'll
ask him more about that before I make a fool of myself...  8)
