[hudsonzero]

Thank you UK for having newspapers that are worse than our news stations.

BAHAHAHAHAHA those pictures were awesome! You KNOW that they said to him, ok, hold your head like it hurts. Perfect! Now try really hard to go cross eyed. Wonderful, here's an extra 50$

Don't Studies usually have more than just one person for a reason?

Nooooo, this study is all legit. This is scientific proof that the Nintendo 3DS is Nintendo's way of killing everyone in the world.

Wouldn't this be easily fixed by turing off the 3-D effect on the 3DS?

Would not that just make it a DS? As loosing the entire point of this device..

it's graphically more powerful then the Psp (hell, the Wii) and has a analogue control system, as well as improved online functionality and game carts up to 8 gigs.... theres PLENTY reason to still have a 3ds even if you disable the 3d

Such as Paper Mario... Yes, I am serious, I love that game. I would have bought it for the games alone easily, the 3D is the least of my concern. the graphics are sort of important, also Resident Evil: Revelations. Must have those 2 games.

And yeah, this study totally proves that there has been a massive return of 3DS consoles... One guy they tested it on didn't like it so that means everyone returns it to the store. Yah...

I messed around with a buddy's 3DS for a bit and it started to give me a headache. Beyond that though I wasn't impressed with the 3D at all. It looked more like those old 3D stickers you used to be able to get in quarter vending machines. It looked far more like it had three layers of depth but everything on those particular layers were in 2D. Very poorly executed if you ask me.

I know it's been said before by fellow UK residents, but haha the Sun. Seriously, multiple warnings etc. everywhere and the option to turn the 3D off AT ANY TIME means that if you're getting sick from the 3DS, it's your own damn fault. Without the 3D, the thing is still a damn super DS well worth the money.

Doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose of the device?

 

[BrunDeign]

What's really at issue here is that these jackholes haven't been sued yet. I mean seriously this is just slander that they're putting out, and it's totally bogus slander at that. The only headaches I experience while playing the 3DS are those from the gaming headphones I'm wearing during my play session. And that's just because I have them on for so long.

 

[jack583]

And I declare that The Sun is retarded.

I second this motion. All in favour?

AYE!!

there isn't much else i can say that hasn't already been said.
read the directions.
the 3D isn't really needed, just turn it off if you want, plus it really only works at a cretain angle and distance.

 

[The-Epicly-Named-Man]

Can you please stop reporting on what the British newspapers are saying? It makes me embarrassing about being the same species as them.

Dont be a dick, the Sun's nothing compared to the rubbish Fox vomits out. And no I'm not British either.

 

[TheRightToArmBears]

Point or not, I'm not listening to The Sun. I wouldn't even use that crap for toilet paper.

 

[Silent Biohazard Solid]

That would kind of defeat the purpose of the 3DS wouldn't it?
But they did make me think... Did Nintendo at all test long term effects of this particular type of 3D on the eyes? I mean, even in 3D movies, they're 3 hours at most. And let's face it, we're gamers. We'll be gaming for 5+ hours sometimes, sometimes for a whole day. That can't be very good for the eyes, I imagine, to be forcefed depth perception where there isn't any.

 

[Canadamus Prime]

No, whatever shred of legitimacy the report may have had went out the window as soon as the words "The Sun" were attached to it.

Actually Rubert Murdoch owns them both, so they're pretty much equal.

 

[Rotting Corpse]

One test does not a sample make. What does the Sun have to gain by trying to bash on the 3DS anyway?

 

[revolutionaification]

Its also common practice in the UK to take every word in the Sun with a fist of salt

Only a fistful?
I take a trip over to the Dead Sea every time I hear their name. Half the stuff they print is just bloody hilarious xD

OT: I really don't see what their problem is. The amount of Health and Safety advice that thing comes with is more than enough, but I guess that's just how they roll, spreading rage throughout the land.

 

[SextusMaximus]

This article became invalid when the words "The Sun" showed up.

Umm... no? Where did you get that information from?

 

[funguy2121]

Was this before or after the page with the needlessly topless woman?

Bastion of journalistic integrity.

Does playing one of the HD twins on an SDTV defeat THEIR purpose? If you say "no" then turning off 3D does not defeat the 3DS' purpose.

Aye x1,000,000

The Sun is ridiculous tabloid bullshit and I will die before I ever work for it or any of it's fellow bastardising hell-spawn.

I also propose an amendment to the original motion - we travel back in time and stop Rupert Murdoch from ever having been born. Honestly, society would be a LOT better off if that old bastard never existed.

Now THIS is a motion. I back this shit.
