It probably would of helped in the fact of cheaper price. 3D isn't important. I go to Nintendo World a lot. No one, and even the stations don't have it enabled. And if it didn't have 3D it would of been titled something else.


Those people don't know that there is a 3D functionality. They think it refers to 3D graphics. For example, at Best Buy; someone was p,along Mario Kart 7 on the 3DS XL kiosk, the 3D was disable, so I turned it on, and she said wow, I didn't know it could do such a thing. She continue playing the 3DS XL on display, with the 3D Enable. There was another time when I was on the bus, and a guy was playing Kingdom Hearts 3D with his sunglasses on, on his gold Zelda Lonk between worlds limited edition 3DS XL, and went up to him and said you don't have the 3D ON, and I turn the 3D half way up for him, and he said thanks, I didn't know it could do such a thing.

So your example only shows that people don't know anything about it, except that it's the only way to play the new popular games, that they are into. But the 3DS wouldn't get a lot of these titles if it wasn't for 3D anyways. No top-down Zelda would have ever been made, for example.

EDIT:

Another example is when I was in the DMV waiting in line, and there was a 5 year old kid with his mother in the line, and I said he doesn't have the 3D ON, and then I turn the 3D all the way up on his 3DS while he was playing Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, and he played for a couple of more seconds before he shook his head in disbelief, and then he continue to play the game with the 3D ON like it was normal, all after just several seconds.

I'm talking about personal friends. We all know what the 3D is. No one has it enabled. I've gone there when events are going on. Still can't recall anyone having it on. Even the people who work there are always informing people at the stations about the 3D. Videos play on screens about the Wii U, 3DS, 3DS XL, and 2DS functions and features. You can't walk into the store not knowning what the systems do. I do see some people try it out. Do the wow thing too. But it's all too often its eventually forgotten about. I think it also doesn't help with the whole need to be certain age to use 3D. I see parents get confused and worried on this.
