This information comes from an Iwata Asks 3DS interview with Hideki Konno
“So if I play Nintendogs, Mario Kart, Animal Crossing, and Pokemon, and if all these games support the new functionality, regardless of what game I’m playing, communication car occur for all of them.” – Satoru Iwata
Some people have already started speculating that Black/White will end up being a 3DS-enhanced game, but I’m not too sure about that. Personally, it seems like it was an offhand remark. Eventually, though, you’ll see Pokemon on the new handheld in some form.
Thanks to Lucas C for the tip!
