I can't remember and I want to pick up a few older Original Game Boy games but all I have is a Gameboy Color and a DS. Or should i just go with a GBA and know it plays all of them?? Game Boy Color is cheaper though. Help me out.

Game Boy Color is compatible with the original Game Boy games. Play Super Mario Land 2 to your heart's content. :)

Heres another stumper for ya, I got the Gran Turismo 3 wheel by logitech when it came out, $100 off the bat. What other games does this work with? Gran Turismo 4 i assume and what else? AND does this work with the ps2 slim since the gas pedals dont use USB?

Well, to answer your question: Yes, the Game Boy Color plays Game Boy games.

I'm not going to decide for you.

Gameboy Color does play old GB games. The GBA does too, but it automatically colorizes many of the GB games. I personally like that, so I'd pick the GBA, but it will depend on your preference. Apparently there is a way to turn that colorization off in the GBA, but I've never done it.
