Thinking of buying a used 3DS soon...

Since the XL will be coming out in a few months, I'm guessing the market for used 3DS's is gonna get pretty good. Before buying one, I just wanted to check if it's gonna be possible for me to clear all the profile and system data from whoever the previous user was. Also, I want to make sure I'm getting everything that would be included in the box if I were to buy one new, so I don't have to go around shopping for spare parts. That should be: stylus, charger, and an SD Card. Is that right, and am I missing anything?

Thanks!!

It will also need the manuals, and charger cradle.

If you buy it used without warranty, make sure you check the hinges carefully. If they're wobbly, I'd give it a pass.

The charging craddle is nice but you can probably find it at EB used for $10.00 or less.

All that came with mine was 2gb Toshiba SD card, craddle, AC adapter, stylus and 5 AR Cards.

I didn't get a SD card with mine and I got it brand new. :O

I just bought a used one off craigslist last week. It was only $120 and was missing the charging cradle. Other than that the 3DS itself was in almost new condition. Now scratches or anything. I think if you look hard enough you can find one at the same price or even cheaper. And I don't think the market for used 3DS' will increase noticeably since it's only the XL version, not a brand now DS.

and it came with a 16gb memory card
