Both systems are great, but I prefer the GBA.  I have 3 GBA games in my top 50 of all time, but I have 0 DS.  The GBA is more likely to have old school 2D action games.  The controls are simpler and more straightforward.  Most importantly is there is the Gameboy player on the Gamecube.  Overall I just prefer to play a lot of games on a bigger screen, although it's also good to be able to take the game on the go at the same time. 

DS is a good system too, and the touch screen allows a lot of games that the GBA could never do.  I would like to try out more games from its library than I have already too.  The main thing holding me back is that I have no option to put the games on a big screen.  A DS XL is probably the next best thing.
