DS is the better pick cuz not only do you get to play all the newest Nintendo games, you could also play the ones you have on your GBA!

The DS is the best console of its generation (the current one), the same can't be said about the GBA. So I'll go with DS, by far.

A DS has backwards capability, so it can play the games a GBA would play, and it can also play the games designed specifically for the DS, meaning that a DS has more capabilities, so I prefer the DS.

Normally I would support the classics, but there aren't enough classics on the GBA for me to support it, so I'm going with the DS

the DS is better over the GBA because DS has double screen and it has a touch screen and it supports GBA games as well. SO i would choose a DS for sure. But it depends on you. :D :D

GBA is better in my opinion because it is alot more classic and have better games than the DS. While the DS supports the GBA game collection, the DS game collection seem to be marketed only towards little kids by having less mature titles. Aside from that, the new capabilities while eye opening is not enough to draw my attention. In fact, I hate the concept of the touch screen and gameplay with the touch screen because the games itself have not given me a fun experience using it.

id go with a DS, apart from being compatible with both DS and GBA games, the bright LED screen on the DS makes it good for playing with.

DS is better, for once it can play GBA games but that doesn't work the other way around so that has to be the ultimate sign of power. DS also has many of the best games of the current generation.
