The 3DS gives me headaches. I always just turned the 3D effect off (an absolute requirement on such a headache-inducing device), but I'm sure the kids will love it. Kids are obsessed with 3D.

But will the kids get headaches too? That's the question...

I'm on the fence about handhelds, sometimes I love them sometimes I don't but they sit around collect dust unless I'm traveling and I rarely travel.

I'm not really much of a fan, to be honest. I bought a PSP like 6 years ago, but sold it when I realized that all the games I was buying on it were on the PS2 and were 100x better on the PS2. :lol: And that I preferred listening to music when I was travelling.

Handheld consoles are not for me...

and especially not the 3DS.

Some pretty superduper fun games on them, though.

I got a major headache when I tried one, and even without the headache I'm more excited for the NGP than the 3DS.

I've read that it's like a lot of these kinds of things. Some people don't get headaches and some do. The part of the brain that is used to process this fake 3D is different from the part of the brain that processes real 3D, which is what can cause the headaches. The warnings say not to let young children play a 3DS because it can damage their perception of real 3D.

I love FPSs and have played around 200 FPSs by now. :lol: (probably WAY more than that). But my ex-girlfriend would get dizzy and flustered whenever she tried to play a first-person game or watch me play one.

FPSs have never had an effect on me like that, but the 3DS really does give me headaches.

It takes a bit of fiddling with the dial to get it right, but once you do it, its cool.

I tried one last night, and I'm gonna hock my 360 and the games and shit and pick one up. I've been lusting after it since. And it has SSFIV on it, one of my all time favorite games. All they have to do is put borderlands on it, and i'll be set for life. :lol:

You're gonna sell a 360 to buy a 3DS? :lol: That sounds like a colossally bad idea. Possibly the worst idea I've heard in the last year. :lol:
