I'd say it's worth it. The battery life really isn't THAT big of a concern (though I suppose I'm used to charging my phone pretty much daily so it's probably just based on what you're willing to put up with) but I know the XL lasts longer than my friend's regular Threeds. The screen size is honestly the biggest dealbreaker to me. It really feels like a lot of 3DS games were built to run on the larger screen, and I really can't deal with the smaller screen of the original at all. It's too small. I'd say go for it if you've got the money. The only thing is that it's not quite as portable and it might not fit your pockets if you're wearing real skinny jeans. And if it does fit, it might look a bit doofy. Oh also. Depending on hand size the XL might be a tad awkward to deal with the distance between controls.

But yeah, it's always come with a charger in the US.
