-Backwards compatibility only with the GameBoy Advance titles.
-System comes with a demo of Metroid Prime: Hunters, which is one of the first games to be released with the system.
-Super Mario 64 will be rereleased for this system and will come with multi-player options as well.
-Graphics look somewhat like enhanced N64 graphics
-"official price" is $150
The DS sounds like quite the handheld when you put two-and-two together and get it, but this system has a lot of compatibility with tons of connections.
I personally will be getting the DS because of how interesting it's going to be in the future. Besides, I heard of a Sonic game coming out for the DS.
