Parents, if you think a delicate electronic device costing hundreds of dollars is the perfect gift for your kids aged 6 and younger, then you deserve the blowback. But the kids don't. --[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|IWannaBeTheVeryBest]] 08:55, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

:Agreed. I lol everytime i see four year old kids messing and showing off with the DSs they got from birthday without even knowing what they are doing in the game; while others work hard for one. These grow with absolutely no valuating to money. --[[User:Lucastcorrea|Lucastcorrea]] 23:47, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
:: You know what I got for my fourth birthday? A Crazy Daisy. ''That means I got to run around outside and have fun with other kids, while absorbing sunlight.'' --[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|IWannaBeTheVeryBest]] 08:11, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
== Successor ==
Why does this article state that the 3DS is "the fifth in the DS range of consoles."? This is incorrect. Nintendo has stated many times that the 3DS is not another revision of the DS. It is the true successor. It will be the first video game system of the 8th generation of gaming.--[[User:IlikeBacon16|IlikeBacon16]] 14:34, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
:I agree to the face that the 3DS is a successor to the DS, but it's still in the DS family of game systems. Similarly, the Game Boy Advance was the successor to the Game Boy Color, and the Game Boy Color in turn was the successor to the original Game Boy, but they were all considered to be part of the Game Boy family of systems.  ([[User:Holonboy|Holonboy]] 22:43, 5 January 2011 (UTC))
== 3D Parental control ==
You should mention that parents can prevent 3d from being turned on for the younger ones. [http://www.siliconera.com/2010/12/30/nintendo-including-a-3d-lock-feature-in-nintendo-3ds/ Source] - [[User:Vhayes1992|Vhayes1992]] 17:27, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
