I dunno, the architecture is a lot better than the 64 so it should be more than capable overall. Mind you, I can't believe RAM would be that expensive and it would be cool if they upped it from 4 to 8, or even to 6 MBs.
Well they could stick OoT and Majoras Mask on one card and they'd still have 64MBs to make a game twice as big(more if they reuse models and stuff). Now that would be one hell of a killer app.

Well I did say perhaps. I mean, there is a difference between those games and the labourious FMV sequences and indulgent special attack animations of FFVII. To be honest, is there really a need for 70 hour handheld rpgs? I think an rpg twice as big as RE:2 giving 20-30 hours of gameplay with a high intensity of high quality backrounds and some FMV would be perfect.
Well i'll add more fuel to the fire in this PSP and DS battle. 2 people on gamefaqs have actually recieved the DS hardware and one of them says that Nintendo is understating the amount of hours you can play the DS without the battery getting charged. He said it only lasts 10 hours with a game that is using all the features of the DS and when you have the sound as high as possible, without those the battery lasts up to 13 hours continous play without recharging.
They'd be hard-pressed to get Final Fantasy VII on a 128-megabyte cartridge. It may not be impossible, but it would require so much dedication and work.
Resident Evil 2 had a lot going for it:
-The two PSX discs had more data alike than differences, meaning that only one copy had to be on the Nintendo 64 cartridge
-The fact that it WAS only two discs rather than more (which, again, shared most information)
-The programmers manually compressed each background and video for Resident Evil 2 on Nintendo 64; the process wasn't automatic
-The videos on the Nintendo 64 version were extremely grainy, and the sound was even worse
