Yes when those specs will make everything on your platform look bad in 2 years time after release and very bad after 5-6 years then not giving up to date cpu, gpu and ram is bad.

If IGN is right they are somewhere at level of 200 euro smartphone but in two-three years time those 200 euro smartphones will have specs of current top of line phones like iphone 4 and Galaxy S while Nintendo will be selling same 3DS. And in 6 years time 3DS will compare to top of line smartphone like current DS to Galaxy S.

That's a matter of perception mind you, with this kind of stance you may as well claim that everything on, say, PS3 looked bad in 2008-09 compared to games on only marginally more expensives PCs, that played the same exact multiplats in superior screen and texture resolutions.

Don't be delusional, 200 euro smartphones that has some decent hardware real cost are nowhere near 200 euros, that's why they're selling with two-year contract each.

 

In reality I'd assume Rein's comment on 3DS more has to do with it's being GLES1.1 device, not in any way he implied they can't get UE3 running on it and delivering a very good player's experience. Maybe Nintendo should take more proactive role and call them for support if there's demand for a good middleware for 3DS.
