I thought I had read someone saying the New 3DS can display 3D Youtube videos, however there does not seem to be much talk about it.

Yes it can, I have one, tested it and works perfectly fine.

That's good to hear since I think Youtube is now using HTML5 when possible. Another words, my desktop web browsers can't even display simple cross eye 3D videos or have any menu system to change the 3D format like before.

That must mean the New 3DS is only using flash, or something else that's able to pick up on the Youtube 3D format. In either case, I think it will be fun to watch 3D movie trailers and any other 3D content on Youtube when I get my New 3DS XL this Friday.

I Have the new 3ds for a while. It can definitely do 3D on the browser,
because youtube supports html5. if you google html5 games, youd be able to find some online games.
HTML 5 works, but flash does not. i tried it out

It's really good to learn the New 3DS can play Youtube 3D videos. That means for me some really cool fun watching 3D movie trailers!

The part about the html5 that confuses me is both my browsers on my desktop are capable of html5, however it's Youtube that does not support 3D in html5 mode (as far as my desktop browsers are concerned) as is apparent when I try to watch a Youtube 3D video in Explorer or Chrome. Or at least in the way that it used to.

When Youtube stopped supporting Flash, the 3D functions (options) disappeared when Youtube switched to html5. Maybe the New 3DS is capable of html5 3D video in a way my desktop browsers are not.

Here's a list of 3D videos https://www.youtube.com/user/3D?feature=html5_3d They will play on my desktop however the menu has disappeared for options such as red/blue, cross eyed etc.

In the case of the New 3DS, I'd be interested to know if the 3D videos in the above link will play and display in 3D.

It probably does if you try it out. Still, I'd still like to have the options that used to be there (such as cross eye viewing) when I'm viewing it on my desktop. Even though this part is off topic, I'd really like my browsers to also support html5 3D modes (like it used to when Youtube supported Flash.)

when you are on the 3ds, search for stereoscopic 3d on youtube browser.
the videos you get look awesome.

Thanks that helped! At least I was able to cross eye view some high quality 3D videos. On Youtube there was even the 3D menu for cross eye and others.

I can't wait to see those on the New 3DS XL without having to cross my eyes!

The above link has some really high quality 3D.

The YouTube 3D options are now under the gear icon. The dedicated "3D" icon has disappeared, though.
