Best Answer

No.

The DS is compatible with the Game Boy Advance, and there's a slot on the bottom of the unit that will accept GBA cartridges. However, it's not compatible with games for the original Game Boy or for the Game Boy Color, nor will DS cartridges work in a Game Boy Advance (though the GBA does itself have backward compatibility with the Game Boy and Game Boy Color).

No. Gameboy is a lot older than ds. And there's more features on ds. You can touch the bottom screen and something would actually happen. I should know-Ihave a gameboy and a ds myself:)
