I'd be interested in what aspects of DKCR pushed the Wii hardware.

I don't know, but I think it did reach near-Galaxy levels of cleanliness.

It's definitely a beautiful game, (60fps really helps) I'm just curious about the tech, as cleanliness is more an artistic thing.

I'm not completely sure myself. I know it runs on a more advanced game engine than Metroid Prime 3, but that's all.

Well the 3DS can handle MT Framework engine & also Sumo engine, so what does that say?

3DS can run a version of MT Framework specificly aimed at mobile devices and handhelds, which isn't saying much. Wii could run MT Framework Lite, which was used for Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles

However, High Voltage Software claimed that the 3DS is, in some ways, more powerful than the Wii. Between the small screen and better texture and shading ability (as well as apparently being easier to develop graphics for in general), it's quite feasible for 3DS games to be graphically superior.
