So pretty much:

- account system like everyone else
- unified OS between their home consoles and handhelds like Apple does 
- more power
- better and potentially bigger screens


Pretty much things that Iwata had already confirmed and things that are obvious.

-Iwata has said how they plan to make their devices account based, they have slowly started to incorporate this into their current devices.

-Iwata has already said they want to make their next devices more unified, "like brothers", and they they plan on making them share a common architecture and operating system.

-more power is obvious, considering 3DS/New 3DS are somewhere between PSP & Wii in terms of specs and able to display Wii level visuals and recieve Wii ports, I would say the next device will be between Vita & Wii U while being able to handle Wii U level visuals at a lower resolution and be capable of recieving Wii U ports.

-Nintendo handhelds always have bigger and better screens with each new generation. 3DS currently has a resolution of 400x240, slightly below PSP at 480x272. Vita has a 960x544 resolution, so if the next handheld is slightly lower than that like 3DS is to PSP, than it will likely have a 854x480 resolution. As for size, something like 5 inches give or take depending on standard/XL model sounds about right.
