Hardware So how powerful IS the 3DS?

The Naked Sample is just a video... Not representing any game.
It's not a video. It was running real-time.
Reportedly, at some Nintendo shows, the "Naked sample" was shown in a form of a 3D video, with no possibility to move your head. I've read some guy's blog entry complaining about the low bitrate of MGS3 video.

the screen resolution is much smaller. (...) not using as much anti-aliasing (or not at all) will have less of an impact on the image
Quite the contrary - low resolution produces more jaggies and begs for antialiasing. I would really like 3DS to use more AA because of its very low resolution. Fortunately, they are starting to do apply it now (e.g. in Pokedex, eShop...)

Well, I wouldn't believe developers' bragging. See what's happened with MGS which was supposed to look even better than the "Naked Sample" ? And early comments from developers saying that 3DS is comparable to Xbox360 ?

there are still better looking 3DS games than that, Resident Evil Revelations is one xample. It's an actual game too.

No, it's not an actual game. It hasn't been released yet.

no, resolutions lower than a screen's native resolution do that. native res does not.
