Should I get a DS or a GBA?

What one would be better value? I have a few games I want to get for the GBA. But not many I want to get for the DS yet, so what do you guys reckon?

If you want to play oldschool GB and GBC games, get a GBA.

If you only want to play GBA and DS games, get a DS. The DS can't play old GB and GBC games.

That's pretty much what most people will tell you, so. Unless you're into retro collecting, you won't miss the GB and GBC capabilities.

Even if you do want to play GB or GBC games, get a DS. It'll play all the GBA stuff and you can buy a used GBC for like $10 bucks.

Thanks. I'll have to look for some good DS games as well now.
