Forums - Gaming - Pixels count and screen size

3DS: 268800 pixels covering 3.53'' + 3.02'' screens.

PSP2: 522240 pixels covering 5'' screen.

Is Sony cramping too many pixels into such a small display area?

They may as well put in a 10'' screen and people couldn't tell the difference.

There must be a point of negligible return where cramming more pixels only increase development cost and not improve it graphical wise.

which according to apple the iPhone's "retina display" is at that point given the average viewing distance. Can't wait to get a 30 in monitor with that DPI lol.
