3D option on 3DS

[JCnator]

I used to leave 3D effects fully on for 70% of time before I got my Japanese New 3DS. After experimenting the head-tracking 3D adjustment function for a bit, I've found it much more difficult to come back on any of my older 3DS models, to the point I only use 3D effects for 10% of time.

Also, the vast majority of the games didn't needed 3D effects anyway, so it wasn't worth for me to leave the 3D on all the time. It would also make Super Smash Bros. for 3DS more annoying to play because its fast-paced antics cause me to unintentionally move my 3DS and render the upper screen less view-able.

I use it very rarely because it just doesn't interest me :/ Sometimes I take a look out of curiosity but not for very long. The only reason I bought a 3DS was because if I stuck with my old DS I wouldn't be able to get any more new games.

I used to use it all the time but then I stopped using it and I haven't used it since.

I almost always play with the 3D on max. The only time I ever turn 3D off is when I'm playing Pokemon X or Y.

 

[Alyx]

I rarely have the 3D setting on. Hurts my eyes and makes me a little sick to my stomach.
Which is why I can't really get my head around why they came up with the 2DS. With a 3DS you can just turn off the 3D setting or disable it completely with parental controls.

I use it from time to time.
Mostly in Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon & Ocarina of Time 3D.

Other than that, it kills the battery life and framerate...so no.

Occasionally, depends what I'm playing. Usually just in cutscenes or small parts in games that look better in 3d. Most of the time I'm sitting in a position where if I turn on 3d it will look horrid so I tend to not use it a lot.

I actually hate it. Headache comes in like 10mins with it. Feeling dizzy just thinking about it...

 

[Frances-Simoun]

I don't use it because of my eye sight, ends up giving me headaches if I focus on the 3DS feature screen for more than a 2 mins or so, If the 2DS would've come out before the 3DS I'd probably would've gotten that one just to save money since i don't use the 3D xD but I love my Yoshi 3Dxl so I'm good.

 

[pengutango]

Never use it since I tend to get headaches when I look at 3D for too long. And I find it to be more of a gimmick, than anything useful. Hmm, I might as well disable it since it's annoying when I accidentally activate it when I offhandedly push the slider up.

 

[Luna_Solara]

I used it some when I played Mario & Luigi: Dream Team and then I use it once in a while in Animal Crossing New Leaf. Other than that, no. It gives me migraines.

 

[Astro Cake]

I turn it on occasionally when I'm curious what something looks like in 3D, but never leave it on too long because it strains my eyes.

 

[ElysiaCrossing]

I almost never use it. On the regular 3ds it's really hard on the eyes and it tends to give me headaches if I use it for too long.

 

[Alyssa]

I don't like using it, it gives me a headache.

 

[Sawyer2030]

I've only ever used it during cutscenes

 

[Geneve]

It makes my eyes burn and is barely 3d enough to be enjoyable, so I never ever use it.

 

[chuchoo]

I use it for games like Super Mario 3D Land but otherwise no.

I have trouble putting the 2 images together, so no.
