nVidia win contract for Nintendo's next handheld Though the Nintendo DSi was only released this year, news on Nintendo's next handheld have emerged on BSN via a "confidential source". Nintendo are working with graphics card developers nVidia for their future portable gaming console, the company developed the Microsoft Zune HD Player and has helped create several smart phones. The next-gen handheld is said to feature a major boost in power and will be able to support Wii standard graphics whilst still having a low battery consumption, they also plan to make it backward compatible with Nintendo DS titles. Nintendo's future handheld device is apparently expected to be released late next year in Japan but until Nintendo make an official statement take this for what it is.

Awesome, I wonder if they're going to use the tegra chip or make some super badass chip.
I wonder how good games will look on the 3DS.
Tegra, Tegra, Tegra, Tegra, Tegra...
It would have been better if ATI had won it. Nvidia likes to make things that are too expensive.

God damn it Nintendo.
:o
well if they get games that are not crap then hell yes
Shove a Fermi into it. Amazing graphics for a handheld, but 5 seconds (being optimistic) battery life.

3DS is definitely gonna be the ultimate PSP killer. Can't wait.
Wow, nice one of Nintendo there to secure Nvidia! Hopefully the obvious PSP2 will be a reasonable competitor so I can have both!
Ovisally, There will be alot of problems... Its Nvidia

damn probably 2012 when they release it International.
[QUOTE=SKEEA;21050295]It would have been better if ATI had won it. Nvidia likes to make things that are too expensive.[/QUOTE] At least Nvidia products work and their drivers recognise they're plugged in. Oh and they know how to label things in a logical order.
[QUOTE=SKEEA;21050295]It would have been better if ATI had won it. Nvidia likes to make things that are too expensive.[/QUOTE] nVidia are higher quality. If this turns out to look ok I might get it.
HD Pokemon come onnnnnn
Drop these DS3ds and the new psp and make a friggin new console, not just a remake of the old one.
They better make graphics better than playstation 1.

Can you people stop arguing over which company is better for this? Nvidia won the contract, now Nintendo is going to tell them exactly to what specifications to make the chip. If ATi won, we'd end up with more or less the same fucking thing.
