Thanks for the input :)

Seriously considering a 3DSXL, just so image is larger :P Plus, I still have my Wii and 360, so I won't be missing much. Instead I'll get to play tons of RPGs and other Nintendo Classics, with a bigger VC catalog and more indie games. Believe it or not, I still haven't gamed on a 3DS, but did so many times on a Wii U.

Problem are the prices here, all imported items are sold here at at least 2 times the original price...

Depending on the circumstances then, it might actually make financial sense for you to go digital (if you can stomach that). I don't know what eShop you'd access, but it might be able to pay U.S.-level prices for most of your games, and aside from Nintendo games those seem to be akin to what's available at retail (third-parties set their own prices, and can have their own sales).

Completely forgot about that! That's it I guess, still jobless for a few more weeks, but as soon as I start anew, I will be buying a 3DS. I think LatAm has the US eShop, barring some US exclusive services like Hulu, Amazon Video, or other US only features like spot pass, the rest shall be all available here. I would still pay an extra 20% in each transaction I make though, because my country is close to become another Cuba or Venezuela. We are paying an extra 20% over the original price in any transactions that involve foreign currency if we pay the equivalent in our local currency. And since dollars here are much more valuable than our local currency and we are forbidden to get any foreign currency, I get no option but to pay in local currency the equivalent, plus another 20%, which isn't that bad considering all things.

Good news for me haha, thanks for reminding this to me

Mexican gamer here and no about the US eshop... we get Mexican, over-inflated prices and next to no discounts, ever.

 

The 3DS is a great gaming platform tho. I haven't cared about gaming consoles in months due to the 3DS greatness :)
