Is the New 3DS more powerful than the 3DS? As things stand, existing 3DS titles see no performance bump when running on New 3DS hardware, even those with unlocked frame-rates. Unless the software asks for the additional power, the New 3DS simply runs at the old version’s speed – though you do get loading time improvements from the larger pool of RAM.
