So I'm in the process of selling a bunch of Xbox 360 stuff I bought from a friend for $150, which will net me about $70 in profit. The intention is to use this profit towards my next handheld. The last handheld I had was a Gameboy Advance SP. I've been looking quite a bit at 3DS', and I've found a couple potential solutions.

Solution 1: Buy a 3DS on craigslist with a couple games for $150.

Solution 2: Buy a 3DS XL new with no games for approximately $190.

I'm geneuinely curious if people think the additional $40 is worth the larger screen. I'm really worried about buying the normal one and the screen not being large enough, since I'm used to my 5" phone screen. The first game I'll be buying is obviously Pokemon, which I'm used to playing on tiny Game Boy and Game Boy Advance SP screens...but that was also long ago, well before I had ever dealt with larger phone screens.



Money can't buy happiness. Just video games, which make me happy.
