no argument here; the 3ds is one of the best systems around.

So many games. I absolutely love my 3DS XL. I was on the fence about this system at first, but I've never regretted buying one.

I'm not really blown away by the system itself the way I am every time I turn on my Vita, but I'm absorbed into the dozens of hours of relentless fun contained in every game I own.

So the only things you should buy this holiday season according to Gamespot are the 2 mobile consoles.

@forneverbdocked Well you can either buy $400-500 systems with no games or a $100-200 handheld with a shit ton of games. Is it really that hard to decide?

@forneverbdocked I don't know if that's "Gamespot's opinion", if there is even such a thing, but it sure as heck mine!

Whenever somebody asks whether they should buy the PS4 or Xbox One, I always tell them to just go for 3DS. It's where it's at.
