I'm thinking of playing one of them. I'll probably end up playing both eventually, but I'm wondering which one is easier, and how much harder is the other one. I love la campanella, but then again it's a bit overplayed and I really like no. 6 as well.

What do you guys think?

Personally for me, no. 3 is a little easier, but I could certainly see that it could be otherwise for a different pianist. Generally speaking, no. 6 requires a wide range of technique while no. 3 concentrates on close-finger work including chromatics and repeated notes. If you are especially proficient at such technique, it is safe to say no. 3 will be bit easier. Thus, it could be said that the difficulty difference is minimal between the pieces.
