My 9 year old grandson has a "hand held" electronic game that he absolutely loves. He originally used a Gameboy that he recently "handed down" to his 5 year old sister when he "graduated" to the other game.

When I ask him what it's called he just says "DS". What does this mean?

I want to buy him some additional DS games for christmas so I need to understand what to ask for.

Could you please help me understand the difference between Gameboy and DS?

My daughter (his mother) said you can play Gameboy games on the DS or vice versa.......if I heard her right. Is this correct?

Help me please so I can get him something he really wants for Christmas. Thank you in advance.

Is the Nintendo game and the Gameboy game one and the same or are they totally different game companies? Am I talking about apples (nintendo) and oranges (gameboy) here?

DS means Dual Screen. =)

Depends on what kinda gameboy you have. Like Gameboy advance can ONLY play on DS and DS games CANNOT play on Gameboy advance or any older model.

I recommend some Mario games for your grandson. When your buying your games make sure there "Nintendo DS" on the cover or on the side.

Well i hope my advice helps you =)

DS = Nintendo DS. The DS stands for Dual Screen. The DS can play Gameboy Advance games, but not original Gameboy games. There are also games made specifically for the Nintendo DS.
