I started out with it cranked up, just cause it looked so sweet. Now I'm playing more at 33 percent. I'm noticing that you don't really need it up all that high at all to still get a good sense of immersion while improving the picture quality.

It's a fun system.

If it's a dark game I'll put it low.

If a really colourful game then full.

Full.

Until the battery starts to go into the red, then I switch to zero.

I use it at full. Couldn't do that at first but my eyes adjusted and now it's pretty awesome :)

I just keep it at full. The only one I can't play at full is Xevious, but it has options in the menu to adjust the depth of the 3D field and I just put it down one notch from default and I'm good.

It actually annoys me to leave it on, I only turn it on during cut-scenes.

I put on full just once in a while when I play a new game to see what the 3D is like.

About halfway. I can't really tell the difference between that and full.

Wow. Im surprised so many of you play at full. Not that there's anything wrong with that :P.

I find that playing with it lower makes the 3D in the game seem more "natural" if you know what I mean.

I tend to adjust it very frequently, but rarely turn it completely off.

Almost full in OoT, ~80%.

Like someone else said I had to adjust first so I started with 30-50% but now I can handle full aswell.

I usually have it completely off. I turn it on occassionaly but have found almost all the games I own, or have owned, look much better with it disabled.

0. I usually can't get it "just right" and then keep it still while playing an intense game or in an intense boss battle.

Full 3D, except for Dead or Alive which is always on Zero. I can't stand 30FPS in that game.

I play everygame with the 3D setting maxed out. The awesome 3D effect is why I bought the system in the first place. It makes the game so much better. But now I have a hard time going back to plain old boring 2D displays, like the one hooked to my TV console.

Spinnerweb

Same..

Zero .. I dont like playing games in 3d.

I only turn it on full for like 20 secs or so when playing a new game just to see what it looks like in 3d.

I bought mine for the look and feel, not cause it has/had 3d feature.

It's always on full when I play Ocarina of Time and Shadow Wars. I've never gotten a headache, nor do my eyes feel strained, but that's probably because I put the game down ever hour or so. Whenever I'm not playing, it's sitting on the cradle, so you won't be hearing me complain that the 3D drains the battery to fast. I have it off when I play Devil Survivor Overclocked though, since that games only uses 3D in the opening and when fusing demons (even without the 3D, it's still my favorite game of the three).

I usually have it set at half when I use 3D, but sometimes I'll turn it up full blast just to see the cool depth effects.

Zero. I don't care about 3D at all in the first place so, using an inferior version doesn't interest me. I bought the 3DS just to play games on it regularly.

Slightly above off for OoT (The only game I have at the moment) It looks really good, but when the cutscenes come on I turn it up to 100%) Also some things like Nintendo Video I turn it up to 100%

I usually start by only playing with it 50% up, then turn it up to full within a few minutes.

Full! That's why I bought the dang thing. I had to turn it off for some of the AR games but who plays those after a day or two?

I occasionally leave it on full 3D if its a new game, but usually its off. For me the graphics look better with the 3D off.

I usually put the slider about halfway. If I do too much 3D I have to hold it way back for the "sweet spot".

At first I had to play at about 50% because it hurt my eyes, now I play at 100%. I read also that it doesn't do anything to your battery, and based off experince, I have to concur with that. Sometimes however, in like a boss fight in OOT or if I'm feeling restless and cant get comfortable, I turn it down to like 50% because I cant keep the screen still

Full, it took me a full day of play for my eyes to get used to it, now I feel no strain or tiredness at all.
