Same here, except for the DS part. They couldn't ONLY release DS games, because then, nobody will buy the 3DS.

It's probably because at the time, the 3DS was fairly new, meaning quite costly, and Game Freak knows the ways to make maximum profit from their Pokemon games. One way is to make sure more people can play the game with what they have, instead of having to plunk down the money for a game and a new handheld system. If the 3DS had been released a year before, or B/W released a year later, then chances are higher that the games would have been 3DS exclusive.

After all, the relationship between B/W and the old DS games is like that between those older DS games and the 3rd gen GBA era games... you can't directly trade between them; only one-way transfers of Pokemon. So B/W could have been 3DS releases if they (or the 3DS itself) came at different times.

Honestly be told; I really wish for the 3rd game to be 3DS-based game. Bought a 3DS and honestly isn't too happy with the fact I can't view my Pokemon the way I really want it to be, still.

In the beginning I was really angry about it not being on the 3DS. Mainly because I love routines. And every generation has been on a new console (excl g/s but that was upgraded when used on gbc). Then soon later I got over it quickly. I now realise that if it was on the 3DS we'd probably only be getting it like now in Australia and that would suck. Maybe, depends how they approached it. I don't know how I'd feel about the classic and traditional format of Pokemon to be even more changed though. I'm sure they'll make it great. They'll probably give us a Nintendo DS game that can be played like a 3DS game when it is put in one. Who knows, we might get another half/half like Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Red and Blue.
