Pros & Cons
Pros
Ds xl is the first nintendo hand held system i’ve bought since the original ds was released. The 3ds is a console that revolutionized handheld gaming. It has something for almost everyone.
This is so much more forgiving and comfortable to use! Still in great shape as well. Was exactly as depicted in picture. It looks awesome.

Competitiveness
I would recommend the 3ds because it has a better library than ps vita.
Graphics wise, ps vita is definitely better.

The matte finish means that this system isnt a fingerprint magnet like some previous pieces of nintendo hardware and the grays and purples of the classic snes design complement each other well

The processing and loading boost for some games is nice but not gamechanging

The system comes without a charger but they can be picked up for cheap if you dont already own one

Its a fun nostalgic game but one that has definitely aged compared to more modern mario kart entries
