Of course, that can backfire... some men like their bitches crazy.

Anyone own both a DSi-XL and a 3DS XL? How do they compare in size and weight?

3dsxl is slightly less wide (DSIXL has like, slanted edges that make it bigger)
3Dsxl is about the same depth, perhaps a couple of mill shorter (again, iXL has slanted side)
3dsxl is perhaps 1mm thinner, but i'd say its the same.
Weight feels about the same, 3ds being perhaps a touch heavier but not really noticable.

Looking at them both sat it, it looks like the dsixl is bigger, but I think its mostly down to the shape of the shell.

So yeah, I'd say any size/weight diff is minute at best. :)

Just got Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Shadow Wars and I know nothing about it.

Any basic advice I should know? I've always been more of a Fire Emblem girl but apparently this is similar though?

My favorite 3DS game, I think. I always dump every point possible into banshee because she really is a murder machine. Plus if you keep pumping points into her, you can keep upgrading her knife enough that she'll almost always be able to one-shot enemies. Theres usually a mission or two where she isn't able to, but then after the mission you'll be able to give her 2 more and shes back to stabbing like a pro. :)

I really wish they made a Pikachu XL that had a black interior and flipped the Pikachu image.

This sounded great in theory, they could even have the cameras as the eyes!

Purple Gengar edition on the other hand...

Man I'm pretty stoked for the new Yoshi! I think I'm among the few who loved Yoshis Story. I will say though, I kinda wish they would pick an art style rather than mixing the two. But I'm sure they're have it looking alot better in the coming months, I think part of it is that you don't get the "natural 3d antialiasing" or whatever. Perhaps they'll pull a Zelda and throw on regular AA in 2d mode?

Who knows, either way, the stuff they announced is really great. Of course, now I want a Wii U just for Yoshi Yarn. :)
