Forget it...I don't like things that are optional.

....are you kidding?

I think disolitude may have the same feeling as me about this.

 

The fact it is optional means that there won't be any gameplay mechanics or overall game design based on the 3D feature because people may want to turn it off. Worst than that, it means that games instead of being made with the 3D effect from the ground up, will be 2D stuff then adapted to 3D, resulting on poor depth or awkward 3D. In the worst case scenario, there might games not supporting the 3D at all, since it is optional.

 

That's a kind of throwback for me as also.

 

I hope that there's another detail to make it worth purchasing then. But being it named 3DS, it makes sense that the main buzz about it is the 3D.

that is, unless, game devs make it a requirement to have 3D on to play their games rather than making it optional, depends on the game maker.

I dont think that its gonna be THAT optional , cuz i think nintendo will come up with some amazing 3d gameplay concepts , and well if turn it off, there will be no gameplay , what i think that this 3D turn off/on means is that depending of what are you doing , you cant turn it off, or depending of the moment of game or into the menus... well to keep it short , i think that this has more to with the tech aspects of the screen itself more than about the actual games.
