That rumor does say GC-level graphics, but I really think that your prediction is completely off-base as far as merging consoles and handhelds goes. Nintendo is not going to replace the Wii with a handheld, sorry. Will it have TV output? Maybe, maybe not. PSP does have it. I'd bet against it, as Nintendo likes to keep their systems focused on their task, but I guess it's maybe possible in some outside chance. Will the graphics be near Wii? If this rumor is true, yeah, perhaps. But it obviously is not the same... and Nintendo has always made very different kinds of games for their handhelds and PCs, and I don't see that changing. If this system is real, it's going to be a handheld.
What I'm really hoping for is that it's fully DS and DSi backwards compatible...
