Question
Do you thnk that DS graphics are better than Game Boy Advance graphics and
for that matter any other Nintedo consoles

Answer
Well, the DS seems to be capable of full CGI as well as first gen Playstation level 3D graphics. I've never seen the GBA do that...very well anyway. There are a few games that try to do pseudo 3D on GBA but can't touch what the DS can display. I would say that as far as quality of 3D display given such a small screen, it is comparable to the N64. It can't pull the detail or smoothness of the Gamecube or Wii yet. That will probably be whatever the next Nintendo handheld is.

As is detailed in the technical specs for each system on wikipedia, the GBA is roughly the equivalent of the Super NES and the DS is very similar to the N64 graphic capability wise.

Handhelds in general tend to be two generations or so behind their console cousins. Although Sony is pulling near PS2 quality graphics from their little man. But it run UMDs, where the DS is limited to game cards.
