I've spent most of my life reversing native code, and I've also reversed a good deal of minified JS. The latter is many, many orders of magnitude easier and less time-intensive in every case. Now, with things like Emscripten and Asm.js that will change (since the JS is effectively compiled native code), but it still will be easier due to the fact that, for example, you don't have to worry about code-data separations you have to worry about in most native code.
