Well, the DSi didn't really replace the DS, but that's not the point. The DS Lite was pretty much the same as the DS in terms of everything except quality (the DS Lite fixed a number of issues with the DS). So the DS Lite replaced the DS.
Notice that the DSi XL didn't replace the DSi? The XL versions are not unlike different colours - the Sky Blue DS Lite didn't replace the Black DS Lite. A larger 3DS will be preferred by some people, but others will prefer the smaller form of the original 3DS. The only non-subjective difference is the battery life - and since many people probably aren't overly concerned about gaining half an hour of life, it won't make much difference. So it falls to personal preference, and both will coexist nicely.
