New 3DS Specs:

3DS was leagues better.

**********

DS Specs:
CPU: 67Mhz+33Mhz ARM9+7.
Ram: 4MB

DSi Specs:
CPU: 133Mhz+33Mhz ARM9+7.
Ram: 16MB.

Twice the CPU clock, 4x the Ram. GPU details are a little bit weirder due to the type of graphics hardware the DS used.
Either way, the DSi was a big step up.

Yeah, I mean more relative to what would be required for a generational leap for in-game performance and graphics. I could be mistaken but the jump in ram was mostly for OS operations or? In any case the new 3DS still struggled with a wii port and wasn't about to trick anyone into thinking it was a generation apart from the base 3DS.

New 3DS was a handheld, not a home console; so handling a Wii port is actually quite an accomplishment. And not just any game either, Xenoblade chronicles was the most impressive game on the Wii. The original 3DS was incapable of it.
