As I see it, the only way 3D would really make a difference to gaming beyond being another gimmicky graphical element is being able to dynamically update perspective. I don't know if that will ever be possible but I'm thinking about that guy on youtube who made the 3D glasses using the wii remote and when he moved his head around the 3D elements changed.

So say if you're playing an FPS, if you move your head slightly to see around corners or above trees then that could dramatically change gameplay. Otherwise, it seems kind of gimmicky to me. More gimmicky than motion controls.
