HG/SS was more due to the batteries dying out after 10 years than backwards compatibility. The johto pokemon were already easily obtainable through FireRed+LeafGreen and Colosseum+XD; Also Emerald.
Gen 3 remakes are definitely not as set in stone as Gen 2 remakes. For one, all you need to do to transfer your Gen 3 pokemon to Black/White is to transfer to Gen 4 via Pal Park, then Gen 5 through the two DSes method.
Gen 6 will most likely be when the Gen 3 remakes will become more viable. Hell, Grey is already a well... grey area due to the release timing of Gen 5.
By the by, I have edited my original post with my thoughts on Gen 3 as I am blitzing through them all now.
