But I can't decide from where... Amazon used ones don't look refurbished at all and are usually missing things on the cheaper end. eBay has the same problem but tend to be more expensive in exchange for the added accountability and more information. Gamestop is more expensive than either but at least I know what I'm getting there. Any suggestions or other places to look? Oh, and I'm in the USA if that matters.

Also, games. I'm thinking of starting with Animal Crossing, Pilot Wings, and something else, but I can't decide on a third game. Rune Factory or Harvest Moon maybe? Monster Hunter is coming, but I don't want to spend the extra money on the joystick addon right off the bat.

Giveaway here!

Edit: So, Nintendo apparently sells refurbished ones directly, and for cheaper than any other place, so it looks like I'm buying from them. Still need game suggestions, though! And for the record, I'm obviously getting Etrian Odyssey 4 and Pokemon X/Y when they come out, so you don't need to suggest those.

Why not a new one instead used/refurbished?

I have a question for 3DS users as well, i'm looking forward to buy a 3DS XL (because of the upcoming Pokemon X/Y) and i was thinking buying Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon or Super Mario 3D Land (which one is the longest to complete?)

For the owners of those games i mentioned, the 3D effect in those games is enjoyable or it sucks? Already tried in a Store the Super Mario 3D Land and it was nice indeed.

Thanks in advance.

If you're willing to wait a couple of months, you can always try you luck to snag an online Black Friday deal for both the unit and games.

Honestly, I'd give Craigslist a go to see if you're lucky. I got my 3DS from there for $50 a while back and it's in fairly good condition and it's been great for me.

My recommended 3DS games
Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan - Personal favorite
Shin Megami Tensei IV - 4/5. It's fun, but a letdown for me personally.
Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked - Another great title.

eShop
HarmoKnight - Bit.Trip.Runner-esque game made by GameFreak, the people behind Pokemon. Really fun.
Pushmo - Probably the best eShop game out there. Fun puzzle platformer (But don't think of you typical puzzle platformers like Trine). Really fun, rewarding, and of course there are those "Oh, I should of thought of that earlier." moments.

Not that great/ Buy on a sale tier
Code of Princess
Project X Zone
