Nintendo now seems to backwards compatibility a generation or two with their hardware that seems go away eventually. You had it with the handhelds:
* GB and GBC working with the Gameboy Advance.
* The DS ran GBA stuff. The DSi dropped GB and GBC support.
* 3DS drops GBA support completely and everything behind it, but should work with the DS stuff, fully pretty much.
