Matt Corso, creative director at developer High Voltage believes that the Nintendo 3DS is in some ways more powerful than Nintendo’s home console the Wii.
“In some ways, it’s even more powerful than the Wii.”
“The amount of power dedicated to the small screen opens a lot of possibilities, and the shading and texture ability is superior.”
Producer Keith Hladik added: “From our internal testing we have been incredibly surprised at what the little system can do.
“From a strictly visual point-of-view, it is impressive. We are able to pull off many advanced lighting and texture techniques much more easily than on the Wii.
“That doesn’t mean that there isn’t a cost to doing them, only that they can be done more easily.”

Well, that explains it.
Day 1 purchase, if I can. :D
Isn’t it obvious? “Super Street Figher IV”?
a five year old console with a hardware specs that was just about enough when it was released … and a brand new handheld that beats it in some areas… I would have bin surprised if that wasn´t the case…
Ah, so it’s just easier to develop for. Which is good.

Does this mean High Voltage is going to make a 3DS game? That’s great news!
Yes, it’s been confirmed http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-02-03-conduit-3ds-in-development
PICA200 was an excellent choice for the 3DS.
Power means nothing if the games are all ports, rehashes and sequals.
I disagree with the sequels part of your comment. Sequels are good.
like every console since the n64, ps1, and xbox.
Ha, coming from high voltage software.
Take it with a grain of salt..
Well they cost the same on release so it kind of makes sense.
Anything is more powerful than the Wii, including my thumb.
STFU!
A noteworthy article, thank youu from a huge games addict!!.
