Should I sell maybe my dsi or trade in my 3 ds at gamestop for the new 3 ds?with trading I get a huge discount on my new 3ds.with selling its a risk whether I would get the money or a decent price for it

Or I could just wait to buy a game and save my money,the secret third option

Well, I guess it depends. If you have a 1year old 3ds and you think that you haven't even used its full potential, then I suggest don't trade it. But if you have an abused but loved 3ds, it might be a good idea. Tho, you might think of its sentimental value for you lol.

I think I'll wait for more N3DS exclusive games first before switching to N3DS. I guess I can wait for a year, when N3DS game library is gaining numbers.
 
If you want the New 3DS I'd suggest going ahead and selling your 3DS toward it (if you have enough money to get it altogether).

If you're iffy on the New 3DS I'd say getting it would be a mistake. There aren't really that many new features so it's really only for BIG 3DS fans.
 
If you've had your 3ds for a while then id suggest trading it in towards a new 3ds. Selling your 3ds won't give you that much money maybe 60-80$. If you trade it in then you can get a 100$ discount. You've probably used your 3ds a lot and getting a new one would be good.
If you just got a 3ds right before the new 3ds then I'd suggest waiting a while. The only game on the new 3ds announced so far is xenoblade while the 3ds still has a growing backlog of games.

If it's old, you should trade it in towards a new 3DS, that'll benefit you more than selling because you're gonna use that money for a new 3DS anyway. But I recommend waiting for a while because the New 3DS's price might drop soon like the original 3DS's did considering lots of people are 'scared' of the new 3DS ( :giggle: ) and it'll have some more exclusive games by then anyway.

My friend did this once With his dsi. He traded it in, and got a great discount for the 3ds. If you are absolutely sure that you are going to get the New 3ds, I reccomend you trade it in. However, if you are not sure about it, you should keep Your old one and maybe wait for more n3ds exclusives that you must have. I hope there are some sort off offer where I live that i can trade in my old 3ds and get the New one cheaper.
