I seem to remember Capcom admitting that RE:Revelations only used about 90% of the 3DS's hardware, and that between then and now Nintendo pushed a firmware update further upping things.

Regardless, we will probably not ever see a 3DS game which truly uses all the 3DS's potential. The Vita is the console with the reputation for power, so the games for it will have high production values, but the 3DS is a glorified toy. Developers will probably never try as hard with the 3DS because they don't have to. It will always be up for debate if the production values we see are the 3DS's actual limits or developers cutting corners because they can. My 3DS strikes me as about twice as much power as my PSP, but I doubt we'll see that much on it that the PSP couldn't match.

did you read the OP? XD

VD-Dev is known for pushing Nintendo's handhelds. look at that COP the Recruit game for the DS, they made a better GTA than the GTA creators themselves!

Yeah, but one team trying hard is not the same as all sorts of third party devs looking for exploits like they would for a home console. The market just isn't as competitive, at least in the graphics department, and especially on Nintendo hardware.
