I played with it - and will probably buy it in the next week or so, if only for the novelty value... (There are no games out right now or coming out very soon that interest me.)

The 3D effect is pretty interesting. Nothing "jumps out", instead there is added depth to the screen, making it seem like you are looking into a box instead of at something flat. I was impressed that it *didn`t* make my eyes hurt, like all the other 3D technology I have played with so far.

I also have to say that I`m pretty impressed with Nintendo for making the 3D an option and not a requirement for play. My son only has one properly working eye, so 3D that is forced on you sort of drives me crazy. I had to try to keep him from crying when his kindergarten had a "3D movie" day... and with the glasses on, everything just "looked red" with no coolness. *sigh*
