In the past, Nintendo said they have a history of keeping there old consoles up to date with new games but there not making any games for the Nintendo 64, The origional gameboy and from 2004 i think, the Game Boy Colour. Now people might say that people are going to buy a new console but some people may not want to. I think the only company that is making games for there old consoles is sony.
So are nintendo going to eventually ditch the GBA?

Golden Sun looks marvellous.
Not only are both GS games a benchmark for the GBA's graphics potential, it's also one of the best RPGs ever made.

Also, the GBA CAN handle near PS1 graphics, the delevepors just haven't been able to perfect it yet. It CAN handle 3D sprites, but they can't yet be used properly, and where they HAVE been used, usually looks crap.

That is even stupider than the original post. The bit count of a processor means next to nothing nothing. Actually, it means how many bits the processor can handle per cycle - the speed of these cycles are more important e.g. a 32-bit processor running at 600 Mhz is doing the exact same work as a 64 bit one running ar 300 Mhz, or a 128-bit processor running at 150 Mhz. In other words, the fact both the PSX and the GBA have 32-bit processors (as does every Pentium PC) is totally meaningless.
What the GBA does have is piles of great games. Do I care Advance Wars has cartoon-y 2D sprites? Well, actually, yeah, I do - because it suits the game. Zelda:lttp looks pale in comparison to Wind Walker, but arguably still manages to be a better game. Pokemon Sapphire's graphics are only marginally better than Gold/Silver's, but the game is still great... etc... etc...
