Nintendo is taking it slow, and as they've proven many times already, slow is safe. All their competition made huge jumps in handheld power surpassing the Nintendo handheld of the time, but as we see over and over, those big jumps kill battery life and make the system fail. Huge screen, current generation console graphics, massive storage, brighter backlight, etc. all kill battery life. Not to mention they use 802.11 for all wireless, which also kills battery life considerably, Nintendo made their own wireless format to save battery life when playing with other DS's.
