Actually, no, they'll both run slowly. So far as I know, VB.NET and VC++.NET are both compiled down to the CLR and then interpreted on the machine that's running it.
I've never done a comparison as my device isn't .NET capable, but I'd expect the (managed) .NET executables to be significantly slower than a "real" C++ executable.

Visual Studio 2005 is out already for sale? What's the difference?

re: assembler yes I was refering to PocketPC. There seem to be quite a few people going that way for performance. As one who has written entire games in assembler I know it can be as easy to use as C so long as you document like mad but you have to make up all your own constructs as structs, classes etc exist in C++ but not assembler where there's none of the higher level niceties.
