I have to say I'm surprised they are pushing this new console within the next year as the DS just had it's best holiday ever in the US (US right? it was somewhere it had its best holiday, but whatever). They must be trying the GBA/DS thing again where they "co-existed" but that didn't really work out.

The DS will still break 140m before the 3DS comes out though.

You actually believed that the GB and DS was going to co-exist? No it was only to make sure that they had a backup plan so that if the DS failed they would just release a new GB that they had prepared. That’s why they said what they said.  

No, I didn't think that. Nintendo were the ones who said they were going for the "3 pillar approach" and they wanted the GBA/DS to coexist. The GBA was supposed to be the competitor to the PSP, while the DS was supposed to be an experiment that they didn't know if it would succeed or not.
