w00t! I am a happy man! So beautiful. Spice with Spice, how nice! :D
It's not too tall, doesn't make your Cube look higher than it should be. However, that means your insert the cart damn close to the bottom. Depending on where you have your Cube, it can be a bit tricky. But then you get to shoot it out :)
The eject lever is fun. Pull it and the cart comes flying out. If your cube is on a shelf it'll fly right down to the floor. But they get good distance ;)
GBA works well as a controller, but you need to have it on while using it (obviously), so it kills battery life. Hori Digital Pad should be here tomorrow, I'll let you know what I think of that.
There is no way to use the GBA-GC features with the player, since you need the start-up disc. Speaking of the disc, it's only used to tell the system to go through the serial port. It actually doesn't spin after that. Makes me wonder if it's possible to get a spare US disc, and Japanese system for you non-importers with Purple and Platinum cubes. The case it comes in is standard Japanese case, but blue. But next to the memory card slot, there's one for a GBA game.
Best thing though, it supports progressive scan. :cool:
