Thanks for the advice. I think I will go with the 3DS XL. It sounds like the way to go.
From what I read about Cross Edge, it's not a great game. I still looks like an unique experience. It's probably not as bad as I've read.
I had my eyes on Cross Edge (PS3) for years. All this time I've been waiting for the price to drop. It did and recently started going up again. I need to get on it before it goes up more.
Sadly, I lost the Valkyria Chronicles on ebay. Someone at the last minute kept adding a $1 until they won. That freaking annoys me. 
Anyway, I have other options to getting VC.
I was advised to get the Tales CE because the series doesn't normally get a special edition, but the price is too high. If it were lower, or didn't have 4 kids with a 5th on the way, I'd do the jump. 
I was told that, but I want to make sure. Don't want to leave room for mistakes. 
I could of picked up all the .Hack (PS2) games off a friend for a good price a couple years ago. I wasn't interested in the series, so I passed. I did get some other great games from him though.
Once I saw Panzer Dragoon Saga at Electronic Boutique for $30! It was probably that same year. I try not to think about it much. 
Unless there is a HUGE sale, I don't plan to buy the ME dlc for the PS3. It's too expensive and, as much as I love ME, it's not worth it.
I didn't know about the re-release of Dragon's Dogma. I want that game too. I almost bought it several times and now I'm glad I hadn't yet.
I don't know anything about Tropico. I see the games around. I forgot about Far Cry 3. I hear that game is great. I need to add it to the list.
I hope that limited edition is as nice as it looks.
