Hey Guys,

Thanks

As OC Noob says, it does play GBA and DS carts.

Yeah, i've been waiting on that one.

It looks to be shaping up very well.

I'm not a big fan of the newer final fantesy games, but maybe this one will bring me around... kind of bridge the gap between the early games and the newer ones.

It DOES NOT play Gameboy and Gameboy Colour games though where-as the original DS did. BFD IMO.....

If you get a flash cart for it I think you can transfer any NES, GB and GBC games you have onto it though, provided you have the tools to get them from your cartridges or some legitimate source for ROMS, I think there may be some avaliable that have integrated movie players and ebook viewers too. (I'm pretty sure it is possible to buy at least some old platform ROMs legally and I was only pointing this out to show that the DS Lite has all of the functionality of the DS)

Make sure you get a DS lite it is loads better then the older model DS.
As the lite is smaller then the old model the GBA cart does stick out a little, but its not a problem.

I feel the same, after 7 I couldn't get into them as much as the earlier ones.
