Putting Sales aside - Do you consider the 3DS a better handheld than the DS was?

DS had pokemon HGSS! and BW2, my favorite pokemon games! I like the new features in pokemon XY, but they are not even close to HGSS and BW2. Lets see ORAS.
EBA!!!we need a eba game on 3ds!
i like so much ST and PH zeldas!
chono trigger DS!

3DS has so many new experiences that couldnt come to a handheld before!
SM3DL, mk7, DKCR, etc. But after i play the versions on my wii U, they lost the apleal for me, wii U versions are so superior... So, 3DS worth more for exclusive handheld experiences (and for those who doesnt have a wii U).
