Fine. I'll find someone else and make this a rectangle of peer pressure. Geometry is on our side.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

I'll wait myself. I'd want to play with one first to see if I get a headache.
If you aren't having a good time, why are you playing?

I just have to ask, am I the only guy who didn't get a headache while playing the Virtual Boy?

You guys are lucky to only spend $250 on your 3DS. Thanks to region locking, I am forced to buy the Japanese version, which will cost me $500. $300 MSRP + $200 because demand far outweighs supply.

3D sucks if you have to wear glasses. I am looking forward to trying out the 3DS later this month.

I'm confused... I thought you lived in the US?

I'm guessing he's into the Japanese games.

It's pretty awesome that someone was able to hack this into the PSP, buuuut...

I've been a stereoscopy fanatic for most of my life, starting with the ViewMaster my parents got me as a kid. I've tried and loved all sorts of stereovision techniques, from stereoscope (ViewMaster, VirtualBoy), to lenticular lenses (3DS, 3D DVD covers), to active liquid crystal shutters (most 3D TVs), to stereograms (MagicEye), to polarized projection (modern 3D movies). Anaglyph 3D (two-colored lenses) is the only method that has ever given me a headache, and that's what this hack is using. There was probably no other choice available, which is unfortunate because anaglyph is generally crap :(
