| psrock said: Seriously, The 3DS is very powerful compared to the DS, but it's really not in same league of todays hardwares, it's just not. |
How many portable systems that have been released today have a steady stream of games that surpass the 3DS's graphical capabilities?
On a side note ...
It seems that the media (of all forms) seems to be under the belief that more advanced technology will lead people to have fewer computer-electronics devices; but when you look at the trend for the past 30 years the opposite seems to be true.
In the 1980s most households would own a computer or a videogame console; in the 1990s households would have a computer, a videogame console, and a handheld system; in the past decade we have seen households potentially having multiple computers, multiple consoles, multiple handheld systems, and some smart-phones; and in the comming decade we will se households own multiple computers, multiple consoles, multiple handheld systems, multiple smartphones, multiple tablet PCs, and (potentially) computational devices we haven't considered yet.
The steady trend has been that people seem to want a multi-function device for general practicality, as well as dedicated devices because of how much better suited they are to solve particular problems. As electronics become cheaper and cheaper, people can afford to have multiple dedicated devices and it appears that they are choosing to.
