When I talked about the 'new thing' I mean that in Gen VI they'll probably do something that's not Dream World and not PokeWalker, because they've proven that people like it and will do things outside of the game itself. But if they re-used the PokeWalker, a good amount of people who played HG/SS would probably not care because they're already worn out the gimmick that is the PokeWalker. I know when I had HG, I wore out the fun of putting different Pokemon in it pretty fast and got bored and never used it again, as did most of my friends. I don't know a person that used the PokeWalker all the way up until the new games came out, because they were bored with it. For people that never played those two games I could see why they would be interested in it, but people that have would get bored of it much faster and stop using it.
I definitely see them taking advantage of the online aspect of the 3DS though - with its ability to access a browser and such, they could have a 3DS-specific site, designed to be accessed from it, that can somehow access your game cart and that way they can have live updates just like the DW so they can keep it fresh, but it would still be accessible through a mobile platform.
