When I'm playing my eyes begin to hurt very badly and my fingers get very tired from all of the movement and fast paced action.

The most discomfort I experience is either from biting my lip while concentrating, no longer squinting after doing it for a while, and every once a while I have to stop and pop my hands.I swear all of what I just typed is about the topic at hand and not anything else.

I just get a pain in my left hand sometimes for holding up the DS. But most of the time, i get my pain from my right hand, because i use it for the touch screen and press buttons and stuff like that.

None of the games I play on the DS are intense enough for me to have any hand or eye pain.

Anytime you experience pain, that might be a sign you need to take a break from your DS. I know it's hard... my thumb is perpetually stiff.. heh

Well when you experience pain you probably should stop playing. The warning booklet says so. Lol.

Worst thing that has ever happened to me was: When I was playing my original gba about 5-6 years ago and I purchased mega man battle network 3 (What a great game) I must have played it for about 10 hours straight and I barely ate I was so addicted. By the time 11 oclock hit everything went fuzzy and I became very sick and I was throwing up then after that I fainted for about an hour lol. Never played video games longer than that ever again.Oh yeah... Also When I play metroid prime hunters my hand cramps after like 5 mins on my lite.

It's a real pain when my eyes start getting all weird on me. Then, if worse comes to worse, I end up with a huuuge headache. Bleh.

I noticed that the small screen tends to do weird things to your eyes after a while as opposed to a bigger screen. Also, whenever I play an F-Zero game on my DS (I was playing the original today via SNES emulator) my freaking fingers start to hurt from holding down accelerate and hitting the L and R buttons for turning.

I'm right handed and seem to get a pain in my left arm from holding the DS if I am playing a primarily stylus driven game.
