I played it for two minutes at Wal-Mart, and I got a headache... Maybe I'm just weird like that :D

Only when I'm very tired, but otherwise, It's fine. And if you start to get headaches, then switch to 2D and look away from the screen a bit!

Most people that say the 3D sucks because it hurts your eyes or gives you a headache don't have a 3DS. It happens sometimes of course, but I've played it a lot and I rarely have to turn the 3D off.

when you play it for the first minutes, it will feel a little weird (at least that happened to me)...however I've never gotten any headaches, nor eye strain or anything, I played SSF IV for 3 hours straight yesterday and did just fine, I look at it like just another normal screen...I don't have problems to focus if I look somewhere else either...it works awesome for me...

I get a headache and a sense of nausea, which goes on to last for hours, from playing under 5 minutes with the 3d on. ...That could have been the weird frame rate on a game though.

I believe the safety instructions say something like "only 10 minutes of full 3d play, then take a break".

I don't actually get a headache, but my eyes hurt and it kinda wants my eyes to get drawn to two different directions. But that only happens when I've been playing for an hour or two.
I don't think that the 3DS actually gives people headache more than any other consoles, but it does make the eyes work harder than usually. So that may cause pain, a small headache and similiar things.

Gaming Sickness (or Motion Sickness) is very common. Same goes for me. So if you are playing 3DS, rest your eyes every 50 minutes. You have to get used to the 3D effect. Can't wait to see the Ocarina of Time in 3D.
