 Gamecube Gameboy Player |
After more than a year of fans requesting a legitimate way to play GBA
software on their TV screens, Nintendo has announced the GameCube Game Boy Player (rough
translation, official US name pending). The device is a square platform that attaches to
the bottom of the GameCube hardware, plugging into the High-Speed data port in the back.
Game cartridges are inserted into a slot on the front.
The device comes with a GameCube disc that contains the GBA
emulator, and of course, it supports Game Boy and Game Boy Color games in additon to Game
Boy Advance software. Games can be played with the GameCube's own controller, or if you
hook up your GBA to the system with the already-released GC-GBA Link Cable, you can play
with the actual Game Boy Advance controls. It also appears that up to four players can
play multiplayer games through a standard GBA link port included on the front of the
device, but we're not yet sure whether you'll be able to create a mini-LAN by linking
together multiple GameCubes, each with a GameCube Game Boy Player.
It is currently unclear as to whether this device will enhance GBA
games in any way. However, it should add color to old Game Boy titles, just as the Super
Game Boy and Game Boy Color already do. The GameCube Game Boy Player will be released in
Japan in March 2003 for 5,000 yen (about $40 USD), and in North America in May 2003 with
no price announced yet. European and Australian launches are planned thereafter, but no
dates or prices have been set for those territories. Nintendo will release it in various
colors to match your GameCube.
The Game Boy Player will be released in Japan on March 21, 2003
