I would compare the DS to the SNES, because most of the great games are in 2D. The good 3D games are either on N64 level or above.

That made me actually interested in getting into handhelds again. The reaso I wuit handhelds was I didn´t realy like the gaming experience that much back then but I take it that has evolved along with the handhelds too?

Yes, absolutely. The number of games I purchased for my handhelds (GBC, GBA, DS) greatly improved with each new one. I wouldn't buy more games if the experience didn't get better.

While the games for the original Game Boy were nearly everytime simplified versions of the home console games, the 2D games on the DS are on par with Super Nintendo games. If not better, because game design has improved over the last decade. The 3D games aren't that compelling (even though there are some good ones), but that could be easily blamed on them feeling like simplified versions of today's 3D games we see on home consoles.

If you are looking for great 2D games, you have to get a DS.

Thats the genre i have been missíng the most and I really have ignored handhelds to the point it should be criminal thats why I am asking about it since I know absolutly nothing mmore then Nintendo have been doing great.

Well you convinced me, this fall my mission will be to get back into handhelds again.
