@Tasuki: to add to what Mickeymac said, if we remove this part of the conversation, chances are someone else will pick up on it and go down the same line of thought you did :3

either way, let's let it get back on track. :3

Off the top of my head, Vanilla Ghost House only has one exit.

Also, after getting all the exits, you can either defeat Bowser or play a ghost house if you like... basically all you have to do is save the game.

@DarthJobs: as far as i know, there is still the reader reviews function in the works, as well as the promised forum revamp, chat eventually coming out of beta, a better search function, and other features. rolling out Movemodo and Kinectaku has taken up a lot of dev time over these past few months, however. the only thing we can say for certain is that we appreciate everyone's patience. :3

You can apply that to anything, though. Spending too much time in front of ANY screen is bad for developing eyes.

I'm not saying 3D isn't a potential risk, but in moderation, I don't think the typical child is going to suffer

'moderation' is the key word, there -- yes, we all got those long warnings packaged in with every game while growing up about not playing for too long and be careful if you're sensitive to bright flashing lights and blah-blah-blah, but how many of us really paid any attention to that? and how many of our parents actually came in once an hour to remind us to do something else for fifteen minutes before playing again (i think that's what the recommendation was last i paid attention to it lol)? 3D images messing with your depth perception is a trickier thing than just staring at a 2D image for prolonged periods of time, i would think; if kids were to play a 3D game for as long as they'll sit in front of a television or their DS watching a 2D show/playing a 2D game, it could do more damage to developing eyes.

@WaltzElf: Color images are one thing, but stereoscopic viewing is another. little ones with their young eyes need to learn to focus on normal things IRL and have their vision stabilize (in case they honestly need corrective lenses) before they get used to looking at fake 3D stuff all the time.

we already get nailed for giving out the occasional 10... i can hear the screams now when everything from 8 up gets lumped in as a 5.
