I would much rather Nintendo make an inexpensive smart device with dual screens and buttons in the $200-$250 (unlocked) and a non-phone counter part in the 150-200 region. Since the introduction of the 3DS, the price of capacitative touch screens (which I would like them to put on the top screen), licenses for more powerful ARM chipsets (like Cortex A5, A7, A9, and A12), and larger sized mobile memory have all fallen. Of course they have to work to extend multitasking features (the 3DS has already set the stage with a single notification system running in the background that can update application content without having the app running, as well as some suspended state multitasking) and improve their digital shop strategy.
