I use it sometimes for Animal Crossing, SM3DL or Mario Kart7. But not for very long, or I have a headache :meh:... And I never use it for NSMB2. (it's so useless in this game :()

No, I haven't played that game at all xD, I can't even find it. But I have played the console version and it wasn't that great, imo.
I found the console version to be great. There were so many intense moments that simply made the game amazing.

Half the game was scripted :/ We should probably get back on topic, though xD

I only use it for sometimes while playing, i was surprised that the flying scene in pokemon Y was in 3d when i accidentally triggerd my 3d switch ( after over 200 hrs into the game :p ), and when i "Befriend" other pokemons in Pokemon Rumble blast also, the 3d effect in the game is really cool.

yes,that's why buying a 3ds! but some game really don't need to make it in 3d.

No, unless it's a cutscene or something. 3D on the 3DS doesn't work well, imo.

It's more like drunk vision than 3d vision. I try to avoid using it, but I have more than once accidentally flicked it on, and when that happen, it ruins my gaming experience, so I'm quick to flick it right back off.

I rarely use the 3D. I only turn it on full blast when there is like an "ultimate moment". Other wise, I keep it near a low level. Honestly, the 3D doesn't work well with the system.

I don't really like the 3d, tbh. I use it once, whenever I get a new game, and that's about it. :)

I guess many people here use it only occasionally. :thumbsup:

i use it a lot but not on some games like pokemon X and Y because they hardly use it so i dont bother doing it unless it is a battle. but in AC:NL i use it all the time, it looks so awesome when it is snowing or raining because it looks like you will almost get wet :p.

I have the bar about half way up, I want the 3d feature but it rapes my battery.

Kind of surprising to me that not many people here seem to use the 3D on the 3DS. :confused: Personally I always have it on, and all the way up regardless of the game I'm playing. Took me a couple hours to get used to the first day, while I figured out how the thing worked. These days I can run it from a fresh charge til the battery dies without it bothering me in the slightest, unless I'm playing at like 4 am and I'm falling asleep. :p I can understand not using it if it hurts your eyes or something similar, but I don't get why it'd get turned off otherwise. Seems to me it'd be like getting an HD screen, and only ever using it for SD.

It does bother me that it didn't get fully used properly in Pokémon X/Y, not sure why they didn't just take the time to do everything in 3D instead of doing only parts of it here and there. You can even clearly see how the 3D stuff was going to be used in places, and just wasn't done for I can only assume time reasons. Doesn't bother my eyes flipping it back and forth, just bothers me from a development standpoint.

I only use it when I start up a new game. It usually just becomes distracting for me within a couple minutes.
 
  • #36
I never use it, mainly because it eats up battery life faster and I don't need it.

3D, Nintendo 3DS. Of course I use the 3D its like the main code of the system! It doesn't hurt my eyes at all and I enjoy the whole new depth it gives to the player!

I very rarely use the 3D, so I selected Never. It doesn't hurt my eyes or give me headaches, but you have to hold it very still to even see clearly, otherwise it's a complete mess to look at, and I move around a lot, so it doesn't really work for me most of the time.

When I use my friends 3DS, I always have it at full. It's a cool feature.

I went with Occasionally, I don't like it that much

On some games it really works well, but if I'm on a nightshift then my eyesight isn't at it's best, so I'll turn it off or I'll get headaches.
