I grew up with a Gameboy, and I voted for the DS, because the poll didn't ask for the most innovative or impressive one--it asked for the best one. For me, being innovative or impressive are noteworthy, but what makes a system good (again, for me) is it's library and how enjoyable it is to play on. In these regards, I think the DS beats out the Gameboy pretty easily. (I absolutely love the Gameboy, but boy, having to sit at just the right angle to get light and avoid glare gets old fast).
The 3DS makes a good case for itself by being able to play the DS library and being slightly bigger (and therefore more comfortable on the hands), but it loses the battery life and GBA library of the DS Lite. And while the GBA SP has a backlight and can play GB and GBC games, I never found it's own library to be that compelling (I'd rather just play my SNES games at home)
