I read in Nintendo Power that the DS will have two slots. One for the new
DS games and another for the Advance games. It won't be able to play any
versions of the Gameboy before that though.

I sent an e-mail to nintendo, and they said that it was comattible with ALL
olg games. The GB, GBC, GBA and the GB DS games.

NP did say that DS will have two slots, and that one of the slots will be
for GBA games, but didn't say the last part.
