Because it feels embarrassing and I fear that people would think I'm a nerd.

When I sit at home I think, "hey, I could do that. There's nothing wrong with gaming in public" but a few days ago I brought my 3DS to the mall and was going to check on StreetPass (where Miis meet I think lol) but as soon as I had opened the device I got the feeling that people would see my as a nerd so I immediately put it back in my pocket and I couldn't force myself to pick it up again until I was outside the mall hidden behind a wall.

I know what you mean, I felt that way before, as a teenager.

If you use it a few times you realise that people really don't pay any attention to you (sad but convenient in this case, lol), you're just one among the hundreds of people they see doing different stuff. They're not even gonna remember you three seconds after they see you..

You'll get used to it, if you do it a few times and see that nothing happens you'll stop caring.

I'm pretty self conscious when wondering around in public, but I happily sit down and play games when I'm waiting.
