Lack of bilinear filtering isn't an indication of the feature set or age of the DS system. Its just one design choice of many. Judging the system based on that is similar to judging it on its hardware T&L support and coming to the conclusion that its as good as current generation systems.
But whatever, you just keep believing that I'm simply wishing and hoping that DS hardware is better then you think. Ignorance is bliss after all.

I'm sure his opinion is what 99% of people think about graphics capabilities on DS. I don't have a problem with that. Because the public info on it is very limited. That's no excuse to refuse to listen to any info I have under the assumption that anything I say is just the wishful thinking of a Nintendo fan.
What kind of graphics will DS produce? I know a little bit about the hardware (not much but more then most) but I find it hard to make a judgement. Because I don't think DS's specs totally fit any past consoles. Some of its features are from the N64/PS1 era as you say (lack of bilinear filtering). Were as some of them we didn't see in consoles till the current generation (post Dreamcast). Although its a safe best that DS graphics will fall somewhere in between PS1 and Dreamcast. Where ever they fall though on things for certain IMO. DS games will get a lot better looking. After all what we're seeing now are launch games at 60fps.

To bad you didn't keep reading or you would see me say the same about nintendo , only pointing out that the tittles are older so you don't get the i just played this game feeling and they do change things which have a minor effect on the game . Playing mario ds was slightly diffrent than playing mario 64 and since i haven't played mario 64 since 1996 it was entertaining .
Playing a game 2-4 years ago will have that feeling of just playing it , That is what made the gba fun . I got mario 3 and it was really fun and i hadn't played that since shesh what 88 ? Even though it wasn't changed it still felt like a new experiance. Playing say celda on the ds wouldn't feel like a new experiance because we had recently played through it
The retail version of Mario 64DS is running at 30fps, Teasy.Teasy said:

Yep, the PSP "rehashes" will look and play faithful to their PS2 counterparts, with no significant changes. While the DS "rehashes" will look like the games we played five to eight years ago, even if they're rehashes of games that came out last year.
I find it humorous how Nintendo fans criticize the still-infant PSP game library as one of rehashes when the word so aptly describes so much of Nintendo's catalog.
Even if PSP is heavy on PS2 rehashes, many gamers will find this appealing because now, it's finally possible to play next-generation games on the go. These titles look nearly as good as PS2 games in some cases, and being able to take these kinds of visuals on the road is exciting indeed.
It also bodes well for potential synergies between PS2 and PSP titles - as the PSP experience will be much more faithful to its full-sized console counterpart.
"untapped powers" 
u must be thinking of ps2 fans. ps2 dont have the best filtering around too.
please stop DS bashing, teasy never mean to say that. he implying that Nintendo want to strike balance in making interesting games with reasonable hardware to carry out.
DS is not psp graphics, but it still good in handhelds.

...or Dreamcast fans, or Saturn fans, or Jaguar fans, or 3DO fans, or TG16 fans...pahcman said:"untapped powers"
In fact, it's rare you don't find a fan of any console (or chipset) that doesn't complain about developers not really taking advantage of the hardware or giving as much emphasis as they should have...
But hey, you know. Stuff. Should I insert some LOL or ROLLEYES here?
