Nintendo - Review: 3DS - View Post

I am starting to have second thoughts about buying one tomorrow...

I have a 3DS pre-ordered at Gamestop, but I have been looking at the release games and its hard to pick any of them, they just don't seem to be my flavor. I guess I will get Super Monkey Ball 3D???

And, I went to Bestbuy to try a demo unit. The system loaded up Pilotwings and I turned on the 3D; my reflex was to turn my head away because my eyes did not like it at all (the image seemed to bow inward and blur) which is strange, because I have watched the 3D TVs at Bestbuy and they didn't have any such effect (maybe it was a defective 3DS demo unit? I dunno).

Anyway, I still would like to have some of the upcoming exclusive games for the 3DS, but I hope there is a way to permanently disable the 3D effect.

Also, is there any higher capacity battery options for the 3DS? I have heard it is quite a bit shorter than the PSP Slim's battery life with the stock battery included in the 3DS.

P.S. Who was the oh so wise designer that put the power button DIRECTLY where your hand rests when using the stylus?
