I have a GBA, DS Lite, DSi XL, and 3DS. I figure the GBA and 3DS is all I need to have access to the entire library of Nintendo handheld games. I'm considering selling the Lite and XL.

I don't even have a 3DS yet, but I can say even when I do get one, I will definitly keep my DS Lite. Since it's the only way I can play GBA games, which I still like to play. There are even some GBA games I still plan to buy.

I sold my other 3 handhelds after I purchased the Aqua 3DS. I love the new technology in the 3DS.

Well I sold my DS phat to get my DS lite, then my DS lite to get my DSi. I still own my DSi for the moment, but once June 6th comes and I can get my DSi games off of it, then I'm selling it. I'm not a huge hanheld gamer so I don't like to keep multiple hanhelds. I still have my GB player if I really want to play GBA/GB/GBC games and of course my 3DS to play DS games.

No way! I still have my DS Lite as I still have a stack of GBA games that I still play every now & then. I was never sold on the DSi. The 3DS is the true successor and now I have it. :P

I gave my GBA away, and my cousin bought my SP from me. I still have my DS Lite, but some of the hardware is starting to get worn out. I'm thinking of getting repairs since I'm keeping it.

I still have my DS (original). It broke a couple of years ago, so it really isn't worth anything except for the ability to play GBA games and DS games that work in the bottom screen. Which is nice for me, however, I needed to be able to play all DS games so I got my 3DS.

I sold my DS Lite and my two only GBA games (Metroid Fusion and Minish Cap) hopping they will add support for GBA at 3DS VC at some point My wife has a Mario commemorative DSi XL and I have downloaded a bunch of games there ;) If you have several GBA games is a good idea to keep GBA and 3DS only at this point Regards

I kept my DS Lite, as it has a massive battery and can still play GBA games and some other stuff I'm not quite ready to play on my 3DS, but ultimately $50 didn't feel like enough to sell it.

I have my DS, as well as a Gameboy Color and a Gameboy Advance SP that I just got like last week. It's kick ass to have one of these bad boys again.

Once I get a 3DS, I will keep my DSlite just because of pokemon.
It's the only way I can trade and transfer whatever I want, whenever I want, without having to bother friends or people online to do it for me.

I still have my DS(i). Given the difference in resolution between the DS and 3DS, I will never sell my DS. Just like I still use my GBA:SP for GBA games, as its DS implementation was clunky at best (especially on the DS Lite).

They should have kept on selling the original DS as the DS Tank or All-Terrain or something.

GB, GBC, GBA, GBASP, DS Phat, and my DS Lite are still in working order, if a little beat up. Hopefully my 3DS will keep up.

-------------------

So do I (GBA, PHAT and beautiful new BLUE XL.) I'll probably wait until they have a LOT of good games for the 3D before I consider buying a 3DS.

For me, it's all about the games. If there aren't many good ones, why bother buying the next thingamabob that comes out? (Sides, there's ALWAYS the latest greatest thingamabob coming out!)
