The way you make this decision is by looking at the size of the blinds compared to the size of future bets. In NL where you can often limp in cheap, but still break someone if you hit your hand the implied odds are through the roof. This is also true in limit hold em games with mini blinds or in 7 card stud games where the bring in bet is abnormally low.

Regarding no-limit, another way to say it would be to look at the size of the blinds relative to the size of the chip stacks on the table. With small blinds in no-limit, you obiously would want to come in with more speculative hands, as, as stated, you can break someone. But this is only worthwhile if the size of the stack you are breaking is significant.
