Nintendo 3DS warning, is it dangerous?

Some people are claiming that the Nintendo 3DS can be dangerous for the eyes and there has been a Nintendo 3ds warning issued by some people. I know what anyone who has been to a 3d movie and worn those annoying classes is thinking, after an hour or two of 3d action your eyes begin to get a bit heavy. So is that something we have to be worried about when it comes to the 3ds? Well you don’t wear glasses with the 3ds so that definitely takes one thing out of the equation, but i really doubt Nintendo have not tested this product thouroghly and come to the conlusion that it is safe, so honestly i am not worried at all. Here is what Nintendo had to say on the subject:

“We will recommend that very young children not look at 3D images,” [Reggie] said. “That’s because, [in] young children, the muscles for the eyes are not fully formed… This is the same messaging that the industry is putting out with 3D movies, so it is a standard protocol. We have the same type of messaging for the [1990s Nintendo virtual reality machine] Virtual Boy, as an example.”

Well very young children should not play it but the rest of us should be fine. I doubt that will not put an end to all the nintendo 3ds warnings from paranoid people who think it harms the eyes, but my mind is fully rested!
