thinking of buying a 3ds.should i buy the original or 3ds xl?

I say go XL. I personally "upgraded" myself and I couldn't be happier:

Fantastic screen size really brings the games to another level.
Also helps increase the size of the 3D "sweet spot" to help you stay in the perfect 3D viewing angle.
Original 3DS' size could lead to hand cramps, but the form fitting size of the XL makes long gaming periods pain free.
XL has increased battery life from the original.
However, the XL has worse speakers than the original. At full volume you'll notice some speaker strain on some games.

Other than the speakers though, the XL is really a plus in every way. I highly recommend it. Good luck on getting one either way though. ^_^

You forgot the most important improvement from the original to the XL: The stylus was moved from the back to the side.

So I've made a little tweak to how games are accepted. The score has been moved to 70 (from 72) between GameRankings and MetaCritic as the acceptance score for the Recommendation Thread. It makes perfect sense!

With that said, a few games have been added with the new score:

Shinobi (Action) added!
Skylanders: SWAPforce (Action) added!
Lego Batman 2: DC Super Heroes (Action Adventure) added!
Lego Harry Potter: Years 5-7 (Action Adventure) added!
Rayman Origins (Platformer) added!
Boulder Dash-XL 3D (Puzzle) added!
Crush3D (Puzzle) added!
Scribblenauts Unmasked: A DC Comics Adventure (Puzzle) added!
Project X Zone (Strategy) added!
Bike Rider DX (eShop Platformer) added!
Aero Porter (eShop Puzzle) added!
SpeedX 3D Hyper Edition (eShop Racing) added!

Add Yoshi's New Island. If you add crap that received a 70+ score, you might as well add good games that got a score below 70.

Seriously though, what would you say is the better game: Yoshi's Island DS or Yoshi's New Island?

Few retail games added today:

Still musing over Yoshi's New Island. If a few more folks vouched for it then I'd have an easier time putting it in. ^_~

Hey you guys, wanna help me out? I'm looking for good 3rd party games for my 3DS, but I haven't seen any that's caught my eye. Do you have any recommendations? Please quote me so that I know if/when you're talking with me =)

I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.
