So at my local gameshop there is a used DSi for 119.99$ and a used 3DS for 129.99$. And the 3DS is now at 169.99$ brand new.

Should i just get a DSi or the 3DS?

3DS HANDS DOWN..can play all ds games


plus 3ds is the next gen one and nintendo doesnt support its older gen games for more than a year after launch



AND register the 3ds online before aug 12 and u get 20 free games (10 nes and 10 gba). Graphics are sweet too

you can play all games without 3d, still much better graphics

ugh it all depends on what you are doing with it (sound, brightness, 3d, and wifi). But its not bad, especially if u arnt using 3d. And comes with a stand that plugs into the adapter that i just leave on when not using

yes you should watch resident evil revelations video, just to see what graphics it can produce


and ds is gonna be left in the dust (you can still play all the games)
