3DS Impressions
So I tried this thing today at Best Buy.

I have to say, I was a nerd and closed my eyes and turned off the 3D function. I was impressed.
Then I turned the 3D to medium. WHOA. Something happened and my eyes felt like they just crossed...I turned it down for a bit and played a little. It was...alright, but I felt like glued to this thing. Minimal 3D actually looks nice.
Then, out of curiosity I turned the 3D to maximum. Big, big mistake. While WHOA I AM IN THE VIDEOGAME THIS IS AMAZING, happened, Within 3 minutes I felt nauseous and got a pretty nasty headache that's still buggin' me as we type. My eyes hurt like hell too right now. And this was eight hours ago.
I feel like a total whelp that can't call himself a serious gamer anymore because I now have motion sickness from a stupid portable Sad

Played Pilotwings Resort and it felt like a crap tech demo. You know, like EVERY Nintendo launch game - half-finished demo game with endless, repetitive gameplay. I actually liked the analog stick and the metallic, extending stylus. I liked the improved graphics engine as well - but really, the one thing I can't stand is that you HAVE to hold the console close to your face (well, about chest level) to get the full effect. And once you're doing this you're so intensely focused on the screen that it's hard to pay attention to anything else around you. I like how I can just pull my face out of a DS with no repercussions - but the 3DS really sucks you in! Which I guess is good, but at the same time that's a big flaw. I'm not going to want to play the 3DS out in public for this reason. I'll become a weird, cross-eyed social introvert :/

Personally, I'm gonna go for the second-model 3DS standard and wait until they announce the newest 3DS model (chances are it'll be a 3DS XL). I'm pretty sure I'll be getting one of these suckers down the line if not just for Super Street Fighter IV 3D Edition (which makes this a day 1 console purchase alone; however I'm short of cash, too)

I can't wait until newspapers and television reports start making ugly news reports on it, esp. on the declining eyesight and eyestrain the 3DS is causing children.

Yeah of course Nintendo warns the public about young kids using it, but no one listens to warnings anymore

esp. americans and some english people :{
