How powerful is the IPhone? Judging from footage, I'm guessing about as powerful as the DS?

@kingofwale

Dont worry, I think the games each are around 50-100mb at most. I guess this is apples first "major" attempt to enter the video game war.

 That's doutbfu. The DS is a really powerful handheld. I just can't imagine the Iphone producing comparable visuals to the DS.

Didn't realise the iphone was so powerful.

@ riot

I didn't watch much of it, but that looks as good as any DS game graphically.

Looks like there's some real potential with the Iphone. I wold like to see some better games, though. Then, if that were to happen, I would try it out myself.
My thoughts exactly, it sounds very promising indeed.
I plan on picking one up, after the service plan deals are over.

@Okey:

That game doesn't look as good as New! Super Mario Bros.

Yes I did, and it's not the first footage I've seen from the IPhone. Instead of being a dick, would you care to give your opinion on the matter?

@Leo:

I watched it. I think the DS has better graphics.

This is a joke, right?

DS processing power: about 100 mhz

IPhone processing power: about 620mhz.

 

Since it's not designed speficially as a game-handheld, I would expect it to have close to PSP's graphical power. 333mhz.
