Just stating flaws.
The 3ds is no one near a godly device.
No matter what it was on, 3d had always been useless to me.
Who wants to see some dudes magified sweat or one odd gray hair and actually pay MORE for it.
Same opinion here.
I hate 3D in general (movies, games, TVs, etc.), and I feel like the 3DS' 3D is a bit more gimmicky than any other 3D out currently.
And people keep saying "well, just turn off the 3D then," and here is where I would feel cheated. I would approximate ~$50-100 of the system is due to the research on 3D, as well as the components themselves. So basically, without the 3D, I would be paying $250 for $150-200 of hardware. I would have rather that they spent the last $50-100 on research for the performance of the system itself, since performance will benefit everyone, while 3D only benefits the target audience that actually enjoys it.
The difference between the DS/Wii and 3DS is that motion control/stylus control are both gimmicks that anyone can enjoy, while 3D has a much smaller audience. Seeing as how Nintendo has always loved to cater to everyone, I'm not sure why they chose the latter, but what's done is done.
