Does it matter what memory card i buy for the 3ds both are 32GB

Yes. The class determines the read/write speed. Generally, you want the highest read/write speed you can find, but I have heard that class 6 is the best you'd need for a 3DS. Regardless, I wouldn't use the class 4.

Keep in mind that the last one you posted is also a 32 gb one, that should last you a while.

yea i posted a 16 gb and 2 32Gb cause im not sure if i really want to spend another 7 on a 32 GB i think a 16gb may last a long time.

if i figured it right

4 gb = 25,000 blocks

8 gb = 50,000 blocks

16 GB = 100,000 blocks

32 gb = 200,000 blocks

only using 25,000 blocks now (the 4 GB it came with) so a 16 would give me 75,000 and a 32 would give me 175,000 games are around 8000 each (bigger games) so the 16 GB would give me room for 9 and i doubt i buy 9 full games. Then again theres no rush since not going to buy games until they go on sale. Its just too bad you cant play DSI games off the memory card. tired of swapping them in and out of the system, Man i got a lot of trash. i was going though the DSI games and out of the 30 or so i got only 4 of them are any good rest are pure trash i cant even play anymore

 
I have 5 3ds games, and a bunch of VC games, and if I had a 16 gb card, it'd be full, go ahead, and spring for the 32gb card.

might do that but till may wait till black friday to see if the 32gb fall to around 10. though i doubt i will ever buy full 3ds game. I think the biggest game i have is Unchain blades at 7900 blocks. What is sort of shocking is i also have ORDER UP (think it was on sale for like 5 bucks) and its almost a 7000 block game. have no clue why so many blocks for this sort of game *unless its the full cart verison

 
I may be wrong, but I don't think SD cards get too much cheaper on black Friday.  That, or good luck finding one that isn't sold out.
