Re: 3DS May Be Beneficial to Young Players' Eyes, Actually

"...it's still encouraging to hear that the 3D effect isn't going to blow kids' eyes up as soon as they look at it."

The image that springs up with those very words...

@slapshot82 - That's rather a bit dumb on the parents' part, I mean, Nintendo has advised certain playing times... If that actually happens, like lawsuits and stuff, then... well, I really have no comment.

Re: 3DS Could Cause Eye Problems in Later Life

I already have astigmatism (family trait) and I'm short-sighted of my own accord. I'm only 12 too. What worse can be done? This never came to me because I strained my eyes; it's something that came to me naturally. I'm a pretty cautious person.

Anyway, I limit my game time. I won't be on the console for too long. Maybe a few hours a day, then stay away from anything with a screen. 3D effect intervalled too. Spaced out, gaming time should be. Relaxed, eyes should be.
