Nintendo had a handheld console ready a couple of years ago but decided not to release it. This was probably a next generation Gameboy. At the time, Nintendo probably were still not entirely convinced the DS could continue their handheld dominance and were probably worried about the PSP, but Nintendogs, Brain Training, New Super Mario Bros. and Mario Kart DS put those fears to rest and another console was no longer needed.
