Does the DS play the gameboy Advance Videos? I know it can play the GBA games but can you watch the GBA videos with the DS? Thanks for any help.
 
I thought they couldn't play GBA Videos. It was one of the main reasons why my boss traded his free DS in... he couldn't let his kid watch the GBAVs on it. Then again, he isn't the smartest of men.
 
HMM Does anyone own a DS and know for sure? I want to get my son a DS for Christmas but only if it will play the videos that he already owns. Thanks again for all your help.

GBA Video wont work on the GBA Player though. It looks slightly better too.

It looks slightly better on the DS too. Had some Fairly Odd parent videos, and they looked fine.

Thank you very much! I looked all over the Nintendo site and could not find the answer. Your help is very much appreciated. I don't mind that it does not play the older games. He only owns a few for the color. Thanks again.
 
Make sure you look around the forums for deals on the system itself. There's a thread about getting one at Target for $99 and of course there are multiple bundles with other colors available.

Amazing system, i hope they enjoy it!
