This both true and false and I'm sure many Sony fans will be quick to trumpet the false.

False- the NGP is as powerful as PS3. However also of companies will port games from the PS3, 360 to the NGP. Developers say it only takes weeks to port, so we can be sure developers will port tons of games. Note that right now almost every major publisher is publishing on PS3/360 so their are plenty of publishers who will port titles. Also many publishers can afford 10-million dollar projects these days meaning many will develop games for the NGP.

True- the dev costs of the NGP is to expensive for smaller publishers and developers. The 3DS is a portable GameCube essentially with 3D. This is attractive to developers who can't afford to develop on NGP. Now Sony fans can argue all they want that NGP is cheap to develop for but nobody can argue it will be cheaper or as cheap as 3DS.

In the end their will be alot more smaller publisher/Developer support for 3DS. Also titles that developers or publishers aren't so sure about (new IP's) will likely be brought to 3DS first as it costs less and they can test the field. But as Epic pointed out the cost factor won't deter many if any of the bigger publishers.
