I think this is great it shows that Nintendo is giving its developers enough control over their games to do good. Game freak obviously was not ready to begin development on 3DS. Game Freak will have a game ready when they are ready.
I don't think the new Pokemon games will sell as well as if they were on 3DS. However I don't think the games will suck in fact they may even breath one last breath of life into the DS.
I am sure Game Freak has already begun working on a 3DS title. We just need to wait I do not think Pokemon is hurting 3DS it certainly isn't helping to its potential but with Mario present and the other strong titles Nintendo has listed Nintendo isn't going to be hurt by not having the new Pokemon games on 3DS.
