[Drayon]

I now that GBA games can be run on DS but how is the link cabel working ? If I and my buddy has the same GBA game on ds and wan't to run against each other should that work or?

You can't connect GBA games on DS as far as I've seen. And you can't use the wireless thing with them either, it has to be a DS game. Only option left to connect GBA games with a link cable is to use a GBA or SP.

Yes you CAN play GBA games on DS, but only for "single" players:

Backward Compatibility

Nintendo DS features a separate media port for Game Boy Advance cartridges. Nintendo DS allows you to play all your favorite Game Boy Advance games in a single-player mode.
