Regardless of the processing power in future handheld systems, I have significant doubts that many games (that are not ports of console games) will ever be released for these portables that produce dramatically better graphics than we have seen on the PSP or Nintendo 3DS. The two main considerations I see are cost (making a $20 to $40 Million handheld game seems like a bad business decision) and the extra detail is unimportant because the screen is so small. While this may not be the best analogy, playing videogames on a portable system is kind-of like playing a home console game on a 20 inch TV from 6 feet away; and I would challenge anyone to do that and really see the finer details that come from HD console games.
