3DS was not panic to the Vita. While I don't have articles saved from 2004-2005 anymore. I seem to remember DS was originally going to just be a dual-screen Game Boy Advance and nothing more. Nintendo got wind of N-Gage and PSP and made the DS 3D capable. Early dev kits or prototypes I think were 2 GBA screens with a Super Famicom Controller attached. It was bizarre looking.

DS was at least on spec if not more so than N-Gage. (Side note HA!, N-Gage design intentionally looks like GOATSE as a designer submitted it as a joke out of frustration with management,management approved it not knowing what it was based on)
