Do you want to hear something even more shocking? 3DS has sold 1/3 of the DS or 30M less than GBA in the same time frame.

 

Edit:

Nintendo and the surprising success of the 3DS

 

Hahahaahahahahahahaha

 

Do you want to here something more shocking? Your comment is invalid...

GBA sales were 70m as of september 30th 2005 https://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/pdf/2005/051124e.pdf

3DS sales were 54.34m as of september 30th 2015

DS sale were 84m as of september 30th 2008 https://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/pdf/2008/081030e.pdf

 

Yeah 3DS is waaaay behind the GBA, and that gap would be far larger if the DS didn't already launch cannibalizing GBA sales. 

GBC is probably fairly close to the 3DS too even though it only had 3 years on the market. Nintendo doesn't dileneate GBC sales from regular Game Boy though most GBs sold from late 1998-2001 are GBCs.
