[QUOTE="MayorBryce, post: 10364221, member: 643786"] So, here's a fun fact. The n3DS systems have 4 cores, versus the 2 on o3DS systems. However, those extra cores are nearly useless. Core 0 is for games, Core 1 is for system on both consoles. Core 2, in fact, does absolutely nothing at all times; the CPU does not allocate tasks to that core. Finally, Core 3 is used for the advanced face tracking when the 3D is on - meaning when the 3D is off, or on the n2DS models, that core also goes unused! The n3DS gets its extra performance from higher clocks, not more cores. This was probably done to maximize compatibility with o3DS games, so games ran the same on both systems. Pokemon SM & USUM ran using Extended Memory Mode on the o3DS, but I don't know if the games utilize the higher clocks or run at the same clocks on the n3DS. This tidbit is kinda off-topic. However, it shows that when performance was on the table, they simply didn't use it. [/QUOTE]
