Based on gaming history, a 'new' console should be the next giant leap for a hardware company. It should unseat the previous console as the company's primary platform of focus, and to be successful, should offer innovations in consumer console tech while still boasting a relevant and market friendly library for its audience.

You can compare 3DS-->N3DS to DS-->DSLite, and DSLite-->DSi. Just another redesign in the same gen, despite this one having more upgrades than usual. Confusing as hell, I know.
