I think that the 3DS will be the PS2 of the next generation in handhelds. The DS did what the PS did, open up a new demographic, started slowly then exploded, sustained great sales, and gained the attention of 3rd party developers.
The 3DS will do what the PS2 did, garner most of the exclusives of 3rd parties(like we're seeing), and continue what the DS has been doing. I really think the 3DS's first 2 years will even be bigger than the Wii's. So if GTA miss out on the 3DS, it's there loss, but from what im seeing, the 3DS is gonna be the console everyone wants just like the PS2 was. I really can't wait for this, i just recently bought a preowned DS for pokemon HG/SS and B/W, but the 3DS is in a whole different league apparently

There's much bigger enemy for 3DS than PS2 had ;) Iphone and other smartphones might steal the casual market with their simple extremly accessible and dirt cheap games on a medium you always carry around with yourself.
But then 3DS won't have any of the things which make hardcore despise wii. The planned library of games has some extremly good positions, it has buttons :), and it offers resonably good visual levels together with 3d screen so in early years it should sell amazingly to early adopters.

I totally agree about the 3DS dominating the first 2 years, but i really doubt the iphone will steal the market, it hasnt really affected DS sales yet has it?

Well yes and no. DS seems unaffected so far but the total portable market of DS PSP seems to be shrinking. And in the few forums i participate i see growing iphone/mobile gaming sections.
