None of that stuff would work in a handheld. So I don't see it being an option for Nintendo, they will likely want to use the same/similar components for both hardware. 

Like they did for the Gamecube-GBA and WII-DS ?

Not only will it allow for easier porting but it will allow them to command lower prices on said components because they'll be ordering so many of them (for both the home and portable versions). 

This won't work ... 

There are different philosophies at work when designing hardware for both consoles and handhelds. This applies to software as well! A game that runs on a console won't necessarily run on a handheld when the minimum form of the game is still out of the leagues for the specifications of the handheld even when they both possess the same CPU and GPU architectures.
