That's not even relevant, the GBA was apart of an entire new generation with an entire new generation of games numbered in the hundreds, they discontinued GB & GBC for GBA. That's like saying the DS, DS Lite, DSi, and DSi XL are in the 3DS family because well.. it has DS in it's name. Like it or not the 3DS family includes 3DS, 3DS XL, 2DS, N3DS, and N3DS XL because A) they're not discontinuing the 3DS, 3DS XL, 2DS for the N3DS and N3DS XL B) they're still going to make games for the 3DS, XL, and 2DS C) there are only going to be a small amount exclusive games for it compared to the entire 3DS library now and going forward and D) it's just an upgrade.

How you treat previous systems have nothing to do with it. All you need to know is if the exclusive software justifies the new identity. 

You don't know if there are going to be a small amount of exclusives ...

You're correct, I don't know if there is going to be a small amount of exclusives. But that doesn't matter because just like it was explained in my previous post it's part of the 3DS family. Oh sure, it could be given a new identity like the GBC (which actually had a lot of exclusive games), but it's still part of the 3DS family and it's sales are still going to be counted alongside the 3DS, 3DS XL, and 2DS in the end, because it's just an upgrade (basically a 3DS with a built in circle pad pro and faster processor) and it's also not Nintendo's new next-gen handheld.
