I fall into the #4 category. More often than not I can't find the precise distance to see it in 3D without any doubling of the image, and if I do get it the slightest movement ends up shifting my sight enough to throw everything off. It's been so long since I've used it that, despite it making up 2/3 of the console's name, I often forget it's a feature on this thing. It's probably just a problem with my eyes - those magic 3D image things that were big a decade or two ago never worked for me. Like literally never. --- This is LinksLiege's signature.

There are a couple pipes you can go down in that game which lead you to an isometric room that has a star coin (or whatever they were, I can't remember), and it looks like it's just a matter of jumping up and grabbing it, but turning on the 3D reveals that it isn't placed where you think it is.
