I was thinking the other day of why the DS can't play the older Gameboy and Gameboy Color games. The carts should fit since the GBA and the GB carts share a port on the GBA. I know that Nintendo didn't include the Z80 processer needed for them in the DS, but it was included on the GBA.
So what I was thinking is why doesn't someone release a DS cart that has a Gameboy emulator. Have the DS power up to the GB Emulator and then have it tap the cart slot for running the game. Sure, you'd lose the connection capability (unless someone got really, really clever and emulated the cable connection thru the wireless port), but wouldn't it be great to have total access to the entire Gameboy library on a single machine.
The DS should have enough processing power to pull this off.
Any thoughts ?
