No. You're trying to use Mystery Dungeon and Crystal as a basis. I get were you're going. But both things done in the past were different than what you propose for today. By the time Crystal was made an exclusive to Gameboy Color. The original Gameboy was 13 years old. The Gameboy Light failed. And the Gameboy Pocket was out for 4 years. With not much care in the first place. Moving it over to the GBC was fine. No one cared anymore about the GB versions. And you didn't lose the ability to play or use R/G/B/Y/G/S with the game. The 3DS is only 4 years old. Different mind set.

Mystery D is an OFFSHOOT. Ultimately people don't care about those. And won't go up in arms about it. I didn't even buy MD Red, till like last year. And I own 90% of the Pokemon games. And I never bothered with the DS version (I don't like MD). It's a game series a lot of people don't really care about. So again, no problem. People will be happy to ignore it.

N3DS blocking a main game. Weather it's a sequel or Z is irrelevant. It will cause massive hate and uproar. And get people to hate the N3DS even more. I wouldn't buy it. I'm not using over $200 to play one game. I'd end up waiting for the next real handheld. Than go buy it. If the next handheld isn't BC. Well than I'd never buy it.
