In many cases, it's difficult to imagine the gap between sensor dimensions only by going over specs. The picture below will help offer you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the Mini and S3000.

All in all, both cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The Mini featuring a tinier sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF more challenging and the Nikon S3000 will deliver extra detail due to its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will let you crop photos somewhat more aggressively. The younger Mini provides a benefit with regard to sensor tech.
