Nintendo 3DS Fresh News Head ache problem!

Written by Jamie Gordon

I've been using the Nintendo 3DS for 2 days now (not straight!) And believe me it is amazing! Incredible in every way. However one big big big issue with the device became apparent after playing with it for only a mere 15 minutes. It strains my eyes and always gives me migraines/head aches. I was curious to find out whether or not it was just me, so i took the device to the 'Cheadle Hulme School' to test it out on some students. They all loved it, but agreed it gave you eye strain within 10 minutes on average (10/13 students agreed).

As well as this the 3DS repeats itself and emphasises the importance of not over playing on the 3D mode. Hmmmm maybe this might be the fall of the 3DS...keep checking out this spot to see for a full review on the device.

The company that brought you Angry Birds also said in a report: "So far, we have hesitated to create multiple versions of Angry Birds for the Android platform. But judging by the feedback we have received, we feel that by providing a lightweight solution, we are doing a favor for our fans. We are currently developing a lighter solution to run Angry Birds on lower-end Android devices."

The Angry Birds developer 'Rovio Mobile' sent an apology out to the public, mentioning words such as 'are efforts were unsuccessful in delivering optimal performance'. They are trying to provide an alternative for the android users, but overall a bad day for Angry Birds and her awaiting Android fans.
