It is pretty much confirmed that the headache thing was a myth. I am not sure how it started. The only way I can think of people getting headaches is if they have a neurological disorder or are Sony fans.

Anyway, if all you see are Zelda and Mario Kart, then you are ignoring a lot of games like Kid Icarus, Phoenix Wright vs Professor Layton, Super Mario 3DS, Assassin's Creed, Kingdom Hearts 3D, Cave Story 3D, etc...

The headaches are not a myth.  3D just has that effect on some people and isn't exclusive to just the 3DS.  Of course, I'm not sure if the glassless 3D increases this.  Or maybe people leaving and re-entering the 3D sweetspot several times while playing perpetuates this for some.  Either way, it is definitely not a myth.

@ OP

Well the NGP is definitely not going to be cheaper than the 3DS.  It will probably either be the same price or ~$50 more.  And it seems the 3DS is going to be getting about the same amount of ports and games in familar series as the NGP will, so that shouldn't be an issue.  Just depends on which franchises you like more.  If I were you, I'd wait til E3, when price for the NGP and game line ups for both are revealed, to make my decision.
