I did not know that, so it is possible? mmmm.  And I thought my comment would be a nice joke lol.   So it is something similar with iPAD4/4s/4g/etc.

The DS have two versions os hardware... one with "ARM9@133MHz and ARM7@33MHz" and another with "ARM946E-S@67 MHz and ARM7TDMI@33MHz".

I read about 3DS uses differente CPU and clock for the same system... it is like the Galaxy S3 that uses a Dual-core CPU in EU and a Quad-core CPU in US.

 

The 3ds had better hardware, yes, but games didn't make any use of it so they would still be compatible to the original ds. Even PS2 had different hardware revisions.
