Glad to know that won't be a problem for the rest of us, but I wonder if the 3DS will produce the same nauseous feeling I get from 3D films or IMAX theaters. That's probably the biggest reason I'm uncomfortable with pre-ordering one...right after the fact that we still don't have a real price tag for it yet.
This will probably require gaming in moderation. My eyes hurt after playing for an hour on my regular DS.
Just tape the slider shut. Kids' fingernails can't get remove it if you use a strong enough tape. Problem solved.

How about instead of anime eyes, we get anime hair instead? I've always wanted to have the same hairstyle as Yugi. If I did, I would be the coolest kid in school! *day dreams*
Anyways, this doesn't concern me. I'm not 6 years old or younger, and 3D doesn't give me a major eye and/or headache.

Hmmm... Touché! I'd finally have fangirls following and worshipping me if this were to happen! I'd be the manliest *arguable* man in school if this were to really happen. Bwa ha ha ha!!... Anime sure is weird...

After getting told for four fucking years to put on my wrist strap and watch that I have enough space to play, I'd rather my eyes fell out thanks.
this is quite silly, gameboy was a kids handheld and now you cant even give it to your kids without it losing its greatest assist?
3ds is going to be fail

The worse thing that can happen is your child ends up with no depth perception. It's pretty messed up.
I'm even more interested in the 3DS now I know I can turn the gimmick off :P

@Letters etc.
I think you meant asset, not assists. Anyway, "kids handheld" is a stupid term nowadays, and thinking that the 3ds will fail because of this is quite naive.

You really think that the 3ds will fail? Nintendo pretty much own the handheld Market (aside from small games like most apps) and the gimmick alone shift units. We just need to look at the Wii for evidense of that. The excellent launch titles won't hurt either.

Now if only they would put up similar warnings in cinemas so I could go without having to wade through a sea of little shits every time Pixar shit out some more CGI bollocks.
it really depends if the use of this will accelerate eye detereoration and if the eyes can heal themselves, if this is causing permenant damage, no safety warning is gonna save nintendo from the lawsuits. vision is win win cash cow in court.
i do really hope the system doesn't fuck up peoples eyes.

"What are the odds parents buy this for their kids anyways & their kids become blind & they try to sue?"
That's why they do these warnings, so that they won't get sued later. This is the same for all 3D though, not just the 3DS. So by now it should be common sense to people to not let their little kids use 3D anywhere.

@ brainderailment - What did you expect out of 3D?
3D is simply taking 2D output and making it pop a little bit more. I'd expect as much new gameplay ideas out of it as I would from HD; by that I mean, none what-so-ever.
Although I am curious to know if you think HD is boring too. Personally, neither HD nor 3D seem like a big deal to me, but I find that a lot of gamers tend to have paradoxical views on HD and 3D.

of course it'll mess up a child's eyes when they are at a crucial development time. still doesn't mean it isn't wicked cool.

Do you OWN a Wii? I lost several years of my life waiting for games to start up thanks to all the retarded warnings that you can't opt out of and that you can't skip past.

"Nintendo says that kids' vision is still in the developmental stage, and viewing 3D content of any kind could impact their eyesight."
3D content of any kind.... Of ANY kind?
Like, say... oh, I don't know... THE FREAKING -WORLD-?
