Nintendo UK's put together a very useful video explaining how to transfer everything from your 3DS to a 3DS XL console.
Remember that you'll need both your 3DS and 3DS XL consoles and an internet connection in order to make the transfer, so if you're planning on trading in to upgrade consider these things first.
Still not sold on 3DS XL? Read our Nintendo 3DS XL review to give you much more information.
