Notice how it says Nintendo DS, and not Nintendo DS bundle.

HA! 'First Hunt' is just a demo of MPH.

So you're getting 1.1 game for free, not 2.

Hm I wanted the gold Zelda SP, but I might wanna save up for this one.

Shoot, I wish I wouldn't bought an SP in August. I was under the assumption that the DS would not play GBA games. I guess i was wrong though. Damn!

It was said today that the DS won't be able to play GB/GBC games or on GBA games, you cant do multiplay since it doesnt have the same connector.

But, since the GBA/GB/GBC use similar cart's with one being smaller, an emulator will come in the future that will work around that.

Well, I felt your pain until I read what Jonbo said. I bought my SP right before DS was announced...so I kind of flipped out. But, I have this awesome NES retro SP, so I still want to keep it. And now that I know that the DS wont play GBA games...it's all the more worth it.
