Can the same games be played with Nintendo's Game Boy Advance and DS? I've noticed eBay auctions that claim they do. Any input?

GBA games will play on the DS, but DS games won't play on the GBA.

Can I play Game Boy Advance games on my Nintendo DS?



Yes, The Nintendo DS is backward compatible with any Game Boy Advance game. The only issue that may arise are the aesthetics of the console as the cartridges used on the Game Boy Advance are slightly larger than those used by the Nintendo DS. Problems may also arise considering the advanced capabilities of the DS compared to the old Game Boy Advance games, however this remains to be seen.
