Nintendo Handheld 2011 announced (NDS2, GBA2)

I love my new firefox plugin called Flash Block, and you save like 175 MB / month just by having one in your Firefox browser

The new Nintendo handheld in development will have a Nvidia Tegra 600, a modified ARM11 at 700 MHz. This puppy has support for OpenGL 2.0 at 640x480 resolution. The LP-DDR3 RAM is clocked at 200 MHz. LP stands for low power. It'll probably be a Dual Screen, because DS sold more than GBA by 30 million. You could see PS3 games being ported to Dual Screen 2.

This may hint that Wii 2 will be based around OpenGL 3.2 API (like DirectX 11). I was thinking a heavily yeilded Cell Broadband Engine /w Broadway CPU, 512 MB GDDR5, and RV740. That should be cheap in 2010. RV740 doesn't support OpenGL 3.2, but that has to do with firmware. RV740 has a 128-bit memory bus.
