    I had the Virtual Boy system when I was a kid and I feel like I’m the only person who actually enjoyed it lol I don’t recall ever getting any headaches but then I wasn’t on there all day or anything

        I too am a 3D screen enjoyer on the 3DS. But I don’t really play fast-moving games where the 3D would create vision issues.

        I really did but the framerate in almost every game that used it dropping by half killed me.

        I enjoyed it, although I’m not sure it really added much. I mainly played Mario Kart 7.

          @lord_ryvan @atocci I liked it too. Unfortunately my 3ds broke and I ended up replacing it with a late 2ds, which is mostly fine since most of what I play are old GBA games, and I got a bigger screen that way. But someday I might want to redo Ocarina and then I might care.
          Has anyone had any luck with 3D emulation? I tried Citra with colored 3d glasses once, but didn’t get too far. But I think frankly I just needed a better computer.

      I really thought it was cool but was way too expensive for what it was.

      A friend of mine whose parents were divorced had it. He let me play it a ton and I didn’t get any dizziness or eye damage.
