Next-gen DS and PSP consoles to be more powerful

You’re not wrong if you think that the DSi LL (or DSi XL) and PSPgo were introduced just to buy some more time for a worthy successor. A report has emerged on Eurogamer that details on what could power the successor of these handheld consoles. The next-gen DS is expected sometime in late 2010 and according to their sources, it will be powered by Nvidia’s Tegra 2 chipset. If true, the integration of the chipset will not only make it faster than the current generation DS but also than the current Tegra-enabled devices (like the Zune HD).
On the other hand, Nintendo’s archrival, Sony is rumored to adopt IMG’s PowerVR chipset. It will be multi-core variant of SGX543 that, in theory, will be more powerful than Tegra 2-powered DS but will come at a cost. This rumored PSP is expected to arrive sometime in 2011.
