>>14337084>Liar. 3DS is just an upgrade to the DSi, like the Gameboy Color to the original Gameboy.Wrong. DS to DSi would be the equivalent to the Gameboy to Gameboy Color transition.
The 3DS cards have more storage and different encryption and the 3DS itself has better hardware to be able to make use of what more storage obviously entails. The 3D part is just a gimmick and has nothing to do with the fact that the 3DS is an objectively better system (at least hardware-wise) than the DS was.
>Screen resolutionDS: 256x192 for both screens
3DS: 800x240 for the top screen, 320x240 for the bottom screen
>RAMDS: 4MB
3DS: 128MB
>ProcessorDS: ARM946E-S for most normal functions, ARM7TDMI for GBA mode and auxiliary functions. They usually do not work together.
-ARM946E-S = 200 MIPS @ 180 MHz
-ARM7TDMI = 60 MIPS @ 59.8 MHz
3DS: ARM11 custom
-ARM11 = 740 MIPS @ 532-665 MHz
