(+) Yeah! (+)

Surprising great use of the effect.

3D as a whole is incredibly underrated. It enhanced a lot of games and gave interesting advantages in depth perception. It also acted as pseudo AA and made a lot of games look better.

I can understand people who can't view 3D, but I've seen people just say they see it for like 10 sec and just turn it off and formulate their entire opinion on it. I guess it's not a thing exclusive to 3D but it irks me that it gets so heavily bashed when it was pretty fucking cool even considering modern technology

I find 3D in most games is just a gimmick, although I havn't tried Shovel Knight so I'm not judging it. It makes the games a bit laggier and doesnt add to the experience imo. Although there was one puzzle in one nintendo game (3D land?) that was quite neat, where there was a bunch of blocks and stuff you had to navigate, and it looked impossible in 2D but once you switched to 3D you could see it was cube shaped, which impressed me. But thats the only time Ive been impressed with 3D on the 3DS

In general I prefer 3D, but it does make my eyes tired after an hour or two. Especially since a lot of games have their frame rate tank when you have 3D going like Zelda.

It is mechanically useful for monster hunter and kid icarus.

In monster hunter it's so easy to judge the distance between you and monster due to the depth.
