Nintendo has confirmed DS compatibility with GBA games that don't require use of the serial port but has confirmed that GBC games probably won't work. But provided Nintendo doesn't add flash card detection to the DS's GBA BIOS, it'll be able to run select GB monochrome games in emulation.
And I'm assuming the DS's L and R buttons are in the same place they were on the SP: behind the main unit. _________________ -- Where is he?
