why cant the dsi play gba games?

Question

how the hell can i migrate my pokemon from gba to pokemon platinum?1

Answer 1

because it doesnt have a gba slot.. DUH

you will have to migrate from a ds or ds lite

Answer 2

Nintendo removed the GBA hole so the DSi would weight less compared to the DS Lite.

Answer 3

You can't with the DSi. They removed that capability from the original and Lite versions of the DS when they gave the DSi a camera. Sorry. You could migrate them if you have one of the older ones, though. :\

Answer 4

yeah i know, i dont like the idea of having nintendo do that, but they wanted the dsi to be really small and thin, so they removed the slot where you put gba games in.

Answer 5

The only reason it can't is because it doesn't have the slot for GBA games. Instead, they put an SD card slot that you can download games onto and store music and pictures.



As for your dilemma, you'll have to use a regular DS.

Answer 6

You cant, they removed slot B, which is the slot used for GBA games.

Answer 8

They had to remove it for other stuff like more memory, the internet and a more

Answer 9

No it can not....that's one of the down falls of the new DS
