I like both GB as well as DS, both have its pros and cons.DS's rather slow in its speed but it makes it up with better and more interactive gameplay as demostrated in Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, totally love that game man.

A DS. I like the GBA, but they're not going to be releasing titles for old consoles. Besides, the DS's graphics are better, you can play with a lot of people without those annoying cable links, and it can play GBA games. So a DS, no doubt about it.

hmmmm..... well I have owned both, so I would have to say the Ds. The Ds can play GBA games, and it has better graphics. Not only that but it has a light up screen, so you can play in the dark, and it has double screens. The bottom screen also has touch screen so you can draw, and other stuff like that. So the Ds can do all of the things a GBA can do and much more.P.so... Ds gets my Vote.

I think the DS has more games coming out that have more ingenuity in them, a large group of remakes as well.

DS supports GBA games.But...Most of the new DS games look almost the same as their equivalents for the GBA, but I still say DS since it can support 3dD =]

I'd say GBA for now - but that's only because I haven't seen many games which really use both screens on the DS. I'm sure I'll be forced into a DS soon enough as the supply of new GBA titles dries up

DS can play GBA so u get both there. DS is still too new to compare by otself but it's doing better than GBA when it started. Love both of them, but DS is the best choice for me.

DS and GBA can both be played on the DS, plus after a year or 2 they will stop making GBA games because they will be old.
