I've been thinking about this for a while.
If my, say, iPhone gets robbed, I can always get another and re-add my contacts and re-download apps from my appstore account.
If my 3DS gets robbed, I lose anything that was in that SD card, anything I bought from the eShop, and the game cartidge that was in it. Not only that, but a lot of people travel with cases to store their cartidges, and for someone who has a good amount of games there.. That's a lot of money down the drain.
You can always buy your 3DS and all of your games and a new case back, but your progress is lost, you'll have to start over.
I personally hope Nintendo will add some kind of account system to the 3DS where I can re-download things I already purchased.
How about you? Are you afraid your 3DS might get stolen? If it ever gets stolen, what will you do?
