With the increase of developement time/costs for HD games (im also assuming it takes quite a bit more time/money to develop for 3DS compared to previous handhelds) Nintendo can no longer give strong support to two completely different peices of hardware and this would get even worse next gen as time/costs continue to increase.


3DS is Standard Definition so its cheap as dirt with regards to graphical fidelity once you have knowledge of how the 3D rendering works.

Once they unify their architecture, they can produce for both channels simultaneously with every single release, so even if the dev times go north (which they obviously have), they will still have a higher output.

ya i know 3DS is much cheaper to make games for than HD consoles, im just saying its likely more expensive/time consuming to make 3DS games than it is to make GB/GBC/GBA/DS games. But ya unifying there devices is the best way to ensure a high software output.
