maddjax2 Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 For DD10, would you get a regular gameboy SP or advance or a nintendo DS lite? Hoping for a BF special on one or the other. Will the DS play gameboy games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrn8 Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 The DS Lite only plays DS games and GB Advance game packs. The SP will play the original Game Boy and Game Boy Color games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VaderGCP Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Playing a GB ADVANCE game on a DS Lite becomes a matter of aesthetics. The original DS plays ADVANCE games too and the cartridge doesnt stick out like on the DS LITE. On the DS LITE your ADVANCE cartridge will stick out about 1cm from the handheld. It seems like nothing but believe me...it does look kinda ugly. Ive rarely seen people play ADVANCE games on a LITE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneredhonda Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 SAY that info is good to know!! We are thinking about a ds to replace a GB advance for my 9 (almost 10) yr old son. Are the DS's (lite and regular) price controled? I have been seeing them all about the same price. I was hoping for a great deal on BF but I am wondering if I should just buy now to besure we have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaderGCP Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 With the new black and pink ones just released a couple of weeks ago it'll be hard to find those for the holiday season for sure. I'm also sure Nintendo itself wont drop the price of the LITE, not sure about the original. You may see lots of stores bundle their originals with accessories or games to get them the hell out of their stores. *whispers*the original ones are kinda ugly. But they're extremely tough. Sometimes I dont want to play my LITE because its just too nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they bundle them like you said and get them out cheaper! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aj2005 Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Which would be the best for a five year old? I found a bundle package -pink GBA SP with two games (Dora Spy Adventure & Disney Princess) for 99.00. This is the first year she has asked for any "games" and I didn't know if she was ready or what to get!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amyers12345 Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Rumor has it that WM will be running the GBA SP for $30 on BF. Toys r us runs b1g1 sales off and on until christmas. That would get you everything for about 60.00. That's rumored, but I figure they will be somewhere in the 35-45 price range. They always are!

Vickis3js Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 Go to the store and check or call and see. I went on-line and it said OOS but went to the store and they had 2 of them. My DD will be so excited! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
