Is there anyone else here who REALLY likes the 3DS's 3D?

A lot of people seem to trivualize it as a useless gimmick or just some minor feature but, for me, it's pretty much the coolest thing I've seen in a long time.

I've had a 3DS for about 6 months now and I simply love the 3D... for me it adds more immersion than the Vita's exceptional graphics and brilliant widescreen.

I realize that a lot of people disagree with me, but having spend a fair amount of time with the Vita, I can honestly say that I enjoy the 3DS's graphics more when the 3D effect is on than the Vita in all it's HD glory.

A side point - I've read some reviews / opinions that criticise the 3D for being useless but for me it's a simple matter of immersion. Ocarina of Time 3DS doesn't use the 3D in any meaningful way but the effect still adds a lot to the game for me. It makes everything feel a lot more real. It gives the world a sense of actual presence, rather than just bieng pixels on a screen.

I always play with the 3D on 100%. Though I only have Ocarina of Time 3D so far.

Depends on how well its done. In SM3DL and MK 7 its amazing, in RE:R its annoying and makes everything really jaggy so I turn it off, and in tetris: axis it doesnt really change anything so i turn it off just to save battery. Like all things, it depends on the implementation.

To me it is a gimmick. I usually play with 3D on for the first 30 minutes if any new game I buy just in case, but each time it doesn't add anything more than a gimmick to me.

he is meaning the 3D effect, not the graphics as such. Also ps3 in 3D is just as gimmicky as 3DS in 3D.

Personally I like the 3D effect, being 17 though, I can't afford a 3DS but the few times i've used one I thought it was great. I love 3D in general tbh.

It hurts my eyes, and I can't look at the screen from different angles.

I play with 3D off. I think it's pretty lame.

I think it looks great and usually play with the 3D at 100%, some games it isn't necessary but I just find the image to be impressive when the game has a large amount of depth. As for RE Revelations, I wasn't as impressed at first until I changed the 3D setting in the game to the highest setting and it looks very impressive. The only issue is that it is a little more sensitive to ghosting, but I only really notice it when in a really dark area of the game.

Not really. Maybe I haven't bought a game that takes good advantage of the 3D effect yet.

I've only got Ocarina of Time at the moment and haven't got round to playing it. My first impression was that the 3D destroyed my eyes tbh, but then I stopped being a dick and took it off 100% 3D and optimised it properly...

Mii Plaza looks sweet in 3D :P

Hate it on 3D games, looks awesome on 2D games.

Yes it is a gimmick on the ps3, it adds very little to the gameplay.

I like to play my games for hours on end, i have the 3D turned on for about 10 minutes just to see what it looks like and then i turn it off.

I used to be highly critical of 3D until I started playing on a 3DS, and now I actually like the technology when it is used properly. I always play my games in 3D with the 3D Effect at 100%, and I think it looks amazing with most games.

exactly TC...beyond graphics is my words..

In a game like MK7 it just helps it look cooler, in a game like SM3DL it makes the game play cooler.

Ya dig?

I never use it.
