If you're planning to use Emulators and homebrews, and like improved (loading times) stability™ take the N3DS. If you don't care, you can take the O3DS XL.

I think the only emulators I would be bothered about is GBA not snes. The o3ds can still do these relatively easy cant they?

O3DS XL - £99 + nes remix + charger
n3DS XL - £140

Apart from being able to play a couple games there's no difference?

did not realize you were from another country $56 is quite a big price difference, but snes games xenoblade and the extra thumbstick add quite a bit of value. and you don't know how many more differences will come in the future.

On o3ds, you would have to install the games individually as cia. The emulators on o3ds are slow.

Yeah when you factor in the game resells for £15 it's an extra £55 so I was just going to get the old, now i'm doubting myself :S

As emulator, no, GBA games are really laggy on O3DS. However, you can use GBA injection, and they'll run perfectly fine, since that makes them run on native hardware.

Thanks, my primary goal is just playing 3DS/DS games, emulators would be a nice extra. The extra buttons are nice but without significant a screen or battery upgrade i'm not sure it's worth the extra money for me atm.
