A survey has found that more than a quarter of 3DS owners think that the 3D effect makes games worse. 28% of those surveyed said the 3D gimmick detracts from the gaming experience, whilst 22% said they thought 3D improved games. 13% of respondents always played their console with the 3D turned off.
The survey also revealed that only 28% of respondents who had not used the console were aware that you did not need to use glasses for the 3D effect.
The results were released at the 3D Gaming Summit where keynote speaker Vince Zampella revealed that Respawn Entertainment was not assigning any resources to 3D development. Describing 3D as ‘interesting’ he said that ‘it’s not something that’s a focus for us’.

I am really not bothered about 3D whatsoever, no matter what guise it comes in.
Just a gimmick as far as i am concerned & in some cases can spoil the subject matter.

Never tried a 3DS as I’ve never wanted one.

The 3DS gimik was good for a few weeks but i just got bored of it and it gave me some mild eye strain.
