So I've been really excited for the 3DS until I found out that you still need two eyes to see the 3-D effect without glasses. I was born with only one eye.
Anyways I was wondering if it's still worth it to buy one.

Simply put yes. The games that are coming out for the 3DS look incredible and to be honest I'm not gonna use the 3-D anyway. Games like street fighter 4, LoZ:OoT,Mario Kart,Kid Icarus, and to many more to mention. So once again yes it will be worth it. Now if only the price would get announce in NA that would be nice also.

Seriously? That blows. Yes it's worth it for the games lineup if you're interested, backwards compatibility, and the virtual console.

you can always try it out in the store too, but it should be (well, better be) great even without the 3D effects

Well my right eye is perfectly fine but the left one looks, not so great and I can't see out of it. I accept it and I'm just thankful that I'm not completely blind you know.

The 3D stereoscopic effect is just an extra. The fact that it can be turned off the entire game is proof that it's not a necessity.

Is the DS worth it without the 3D effect? Exactly.

Launch date is 2011 march, so it's still to early to say yes or no..

Honestly, I dont even care about the 3D. I just want the games. Animal Crossing, Resident Evil, and Zelda
