the 3ds looks more powerfull than the psp, since the psp was a downgraded ps2. i would believe the 3ds to be at gamecube level, maybe alittle more. 


Well, in terms of actual power it probably is more powerful than a PSP.  But that is only because it has to pull off the 3-D.  Speaking on a graphical level specifically, it pumps out the visuals on par with the PSP.  At least, that's the conclusion I've come to with the pics I have seen.

Geometry looks PSP/DC-ish level (and below PS2/GC/Wii), but texturing and effects look well above PSP, and honestly going off what we're hearing it's likely ahead of PS2/GC/Wii also.

Well, I'm just going to go off of execution.  Granted, I'm sure there may be some improvements in the future.  And it has been awhile since I've played a PSP game, but still, I'm not seeing textures that are well beyond the PSP.  I know GOW:COO is probably one of the best looking titles on the PSP.  And going off of memory, these titles look pretty close to that, in terms of geometry and textures.
