More like the Vita of....oh I forgot the Vita's still alive lol.It's the SEGA 32X of handhelds!

Double RAM and 50% clockrate boost is huge... Like basically 3.5DS. Hopefully it gets a bunch of games to take advantage of it
No, more like 3.2DS
This. Seriously, the eShop browsing is crazy slow for a system released in 2011, after smartphone had become mainstream browsing a few years before. It's nuts. I bet it will still feel slow by today's standards.Oh, goody. Now we'll have a bit more power than the machine that was underpowered four years ago.
Yawn.

The system is 3 and a half years in the market. Already?At this point I don't understand why they wouldn't just release its successor. It seams like its about time, no?

It's the 3DS' Gameboy Color.
Judging by the XB footage, it doesn't seem to offer a huge boost in power, but it should be enough to get some decent mileage out of 3DS if the New software is worth the New hardware.
Like Color's was.
This is my exact thoughts. They know this is the end of dedicated game handhelds this the tweak.Said it in another thread. This is probably the last dedicated handheld from Nintendo. This will hold then over until they are ready to reveal a combined home/handheld solution. The increase in other specs are only increasing my belief in this.

Hate to break to you guys but they've already said that they will be producing both a handheld and a console.This is my exact thoughts. They know this is the end of dedicated game handhelds this the tweak.

(not sure how different the output resolutions of GC & Wii were).
Isn't it more like Gamecube to Wii? Double ram and 50% clockrate boost...might be more effective as the resolution output remains the same (not sure how different the output resolutions of GC & Wii were).
What effect, if any, will this have on preexisting 3DS games? Will they run at a higher framerate? Will they be more stable? Or are the benefits of these hardware upgrades be limited to exclusive titles developed specifically with the new 3DS in mind?
I wonder how much this extra RAM for browser functions will affect the ratio of people using 3DS' for porn (like in that other thread)...
How is that compared to the Vita?
I think Vita has shown that even 360/PS3 gen equivalent isn't financially viable on handheld, let alone PS4/XBO
Console generations. How do they work?
PS4/XBO isn't even possible in a handheld, let alone viable.
Vita's problem wasn't being too powerful.
It's more powerful than it needed to be. Short of a few ports and a couple games from Sony, nobody has taken advantage of it. It could have been helped by being cheaper and more malleable.
DSi had over 550 exclusive games. They were almost entirely digital, but they still existed.Didn't DSi have 2x the CPU and 4x the Ram? And that still had lacklustre support.
As a simple lifecycle revision with faster performance for miiverse (which has become important for Nintendo), and the web browser, plus the wider 3D sweetspot, it is fine. As a new model with any more than a small handful of exclusive titles? I'm not so sure.
I mean... kinda?

I imagine the next Nintendo handheld will be somewhere between the Wii and the Wii U with an HD screen, and we won't see it until 2016.

It won't surprise me if NN3DS turns out similarly. It has Unity/NWF support written all over it.
I'm really not sure how I feel about this. I bought an XL last November and now it's obsolete? How much longer will games come out that work on the old 3DS? The big games anyway. Like a new Zelda or next Mario game? Damn hope there are some good trade in deals.
Yea but were those games as big as let's say Xenoblade? Or possibly Majora's Mask 3D?
Were they mostly Wario ware type games? Or were they full on New castelvania big releases?

You do not need to get a circle pad pro or the nfc pheripheral for your new 3DS
Honestly, this is just telling me that if this is a mid life spec bump, that the future console will be quite impressive.
So let me get this straight, most likely the console will have.
CPU 266 MHz -----> 533 MHz
RAM 128 MB -----> 256 MB
VRAM 6 MB -----> 10 MB

Vita's cup/gpu is like a gen and a half above 3DS and it was only a couple bucks more. If anything it's not powerful enough.I mean... kinda?

Exactly how I am looking at it. This a temporary in-between type of remodel. It allows them to see a boost in sales on the hardware side, buys them time before having to release the true successor, and we get titles like Xenoblade on a portable (which is awesome). The pricing is a little high, however.
