The graphics on kid Icarus are amazing. Let's put to rest the theory of IF the 3ds is more powerful than the Wii. I don't think the Wii could handle revelation or uprising.

After looking at the video I had to look for Spirit Camera: The Cursed Memoir and all I can say is the trailer looks good.

Are you serious? The Wii can support up to 480p. The 3DS is 800x244p (or 400x244p each eye).

Second of all, the 3DS's specs are very similiar to a Gamecubes, except it has 128mb of RAM (more than Wii) and a lower clocked dual-core processor (239mhz compared to GameCubes single core 488mhz). The Wii is clocked at 729mhz.

The 3DS will never have better graphics than some of the top gamecube games, but some gamecube games were excellent looking (Metroid Prime, Resident Evil 4, Wind Waker, etc.)

Never argue with an idiot, they drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.

The Wii has an IBM, the 3DS has an ARM
Stop comparing the numbers.

3DS games looks slightly better than Wii games because it's downsized, and newer technology.

Very serious. 3ds got a full fledge resident evil game and the wii got two on rail outings. The majority of developers have said the 3ds is on par or more powerful than wii. We also know 3ds has the same type of shader tools that xbox and ps3 has. So yes I know it's on a smaller screen but not one wii game has looked better than revelations or uprising.

I'm sorry but where did you get the number 239 from? We still have no idea how powerful the 3DS really is, you can't just pull random numbers and say that is how powerful it is. And the thing where the 3DS has a dual core 233MHz CPU is just a rumor and still is.

Or Mario tennis and Tekken.

Not only that, the resolutions 800x240 not 244, and he shouldn't add the p at the end. Plus the GC is 486MHz not 488.

Still though, the shaders don't mean that the 3DS is "More Powerful", it's only that it can use shaders, which the Wii couldn't. It, like the Gamecube used programmable TEVs instead.

I hope Nintendo keeps doing these.

They really seem to be slowly learning that there is an internet out there and many people base their interests and gaming needs from there.
