The original Game Boy may have been revolutionary, but the GBA is IMO the best portable system ever. The sheer volume of quality software is staggering. The DS also has a lot of good stuff, but I see it more as building on the success of the GBA.

Love the GBA, my favorite handheld by far. So many great memories.

allot of late released gba games had compatibility with ds on the box

it's not really that uncommon

Some games were able to work around the limitations but a lot of them don't, and it shows, especially with games that were on the SNES or NES.

sad but truth.

I know. I just thought it was interesting because, as I said, I segment the consoles into different era´s in my head. My Uno 52 for the GBA even displays the nintendo ds health and saftey screen when it boots up!

GBA was the last era of portable gaming I seriously got into.  I had a GBA SP with a rubber controller styled grip, which was sorta the only way I could make it comfortable.  I didn't play it a ton, I mostly had like those NES Mario and Zelda ports, I think I played some of the GBA Zelda stuff, and then played an assortment of other games I'm spacing on.  I actually gave my GBA to my cousin like a decade ago so he had something to play with and I think he still has.  To show how old it really is and what time I got the SP in, at the time there was a website where you could create your own skins to put on, so I designed a Halo skin with Master Chief and I think like the Legendary skull logo to put on my Nintendo system as I was super big into Halo and Halo 2 at the time lol
