It will be, if they can figure out how to deliver a good glasses-free affordable experience for a shared screen.
Thus far, it's only been single user screens that have been able to do glasses free at an inexpensive cost like the 3DS and even this article is about a monitor.
For big shared screens like TVs it's always glasses or glasses-free, but prohibitively expensive. And that's what kills 3D every time, the fucking glasses.
Probably faster to just wait for holodeck-like tech
Holography, the real kind, not the Star Wars kind, is probably the way forward. The display would be about as flat as current ones, but the image would appear three dimensional from any angle and wouldn't require glasses. You could even lean side to side to change your perspective. I remember reading ages ago that a lab was working on it, but I think they had a frame rate of one every few minutes and it was monochrome and I haven't heard anything since.
