You forgot the Dreamcast -_-

 

Dreamcast - 26MB

16 MB main RAM
8 MB video RAM
2 MB sound RAM

3DO - 3.04 Megs

2MB Main RAM
1 MB Vid RAM
32K sound RAM

One must realize that systems that are not CD/DVD based work differently since not as much ram is needed. If the next gen is not bluray but is something like Flash memory or old school cartrige... I don't think more than 512 of ram will be necessary.

Compare Neo Geo to Neo Geo CD. Both ran the exact same games

Neo Geo - 134K RAM + cartrige being played

64KB 68000 processor
2KB sound
Video RAM: 68KB

Neo Geo CD - 7.7 MB

Program Memory: 2 MB
Graphics Memory: 4 MB
Sound Sample Memory: 1 MB
Z80 Program Memory: 64 kB
VRAM: 512Kb
Fix Layer Memory: 128 KB
