Forums - Gaming - I'm planning to trade my PS Vita for a 3DS XL. Cunning decision or stupid?

If GameStop won't let you transfer the ambassador status to the XL, then you should trade in the Vita. Just do it quickly before the Vita gets a price cut, or else you will get much less for it.

Don't ever trade in anything at Gamestop, sell it on eBay! Unless you love being ripped off...



Don't use Gamestop.

Either trade someone in person (use Craigslist) or sell PSV on Ebay and buy 3DSXL new/ebay/craigslist.



Depends, I dont like 3DS games, that is why I think it is stupid decision, but if you like 3ds games, then it is a cunning decision for you.

I think you dont need some kind of "external" approval, unless you are not quite sure about it.



I may have missed it in your post, but why do you want a 3DS XL when you already have a 3DS? You don't really provide any reasons for wanting to "upgrade" to a 3DS XL.

That's what I'm gonna do.

Except I don't have a Vita... so I guess I'm just gonna buy the 3DS XL.
But pretty much the same thing.

Why do people buy an iPhone 4s when they have an iPhone *previous iteration*? Oh and the difference between 101 and 94.2 is 6.8.



Ongoing bet with think-man: He wins if MH4 releases in any shape or form on PSV in 2013, I win if it doesn't.

Do it! =)

I agree

I think this is stupid in the fact that you already have a 3DS and you're getting rid of a whole another system to aqurie the same system that in basic terms is just a larger 3DS, you still be playing the same games....I'd wait till the 3DS XL drops in price to make you descision, which would also give you time to see what's up and coming for the Vita, it will suck ass if you trade your vita in and then some awesome games comes out and you're stuck with a 3DS, a bigger 3DS, and no  vita



you're not going to miss out on anything if you keep what you have right now. you can still trade it in later for a 3ds xl when you can transfer, and still keep your vita. if you want to rebuy a ps vita later on maybe they'll have a holiday sale in time for ragnarok odyssey or Z.O.E hd. but thats a chance you gonna have to take.


I think its interesting people flock to a larger 3ds, and some wait for a smaller ps vita. lmao
