Last time I checked, laptops don't make great 3D machines. But that's just what I thought. I guess newer laptops are about as powerful as desktops. (Is there a reason you're picking a lappy over a desktop?)

As for that laptop, it looks okay. You may not be able to run the newest 3D stuff...but I'm not positive. It probably will, but it won't be fast. If anything, that laptop has 2 SO-DIMM slots for memory that can each hold 256mb. I'd recommend putting as much RAM in it as possible. According to crucial.com, 128mb for that system is $35. Not too bad. Using at least 256mb RAM would be good.

Overall, it's a decent system. Not spectacular, but I think it will run 3ds. Someone who knows more about the sysreq on 3dS might want to say something.
