See, I don't think any part of the 3ds name would be a great idea. They went from 'GameCube' to 'Wii', big success (and BC with GC lol). And GBA to DS, big success. The new handheld should get a unique name, it would prompt more devs to push the new hugely boosted specs, and the backwards comparability would just be a bonus. Naming it 3ds anything is a weak move destined to fail.
