GameCube Game Boy Advance Cable

Here's how the Game Boy Advance and GameCube will interface in games that support the exchange of data.


Nintendo reportedly has some big plans interfacing its GameCube console with its Game Boy Advance handheld. Through the use of a GameCube Game Boy Advance Cable, Nintendo can design a way for both systems to share and exchange data in specific games.
The GameCube Game Boy Advance Cable was released in Japan on December 14th along with the first game that uses the peripheral: Animal Forest +.. The cable is available for purchase separately for around 11 US dollars (1,400 yen). It's a simple design, featuring a GameCube controller plug on one end of a seven foot cable, and a Game Boy Advance link plug on the other. It's a very simple matter of matching up the peripheral notches on the GBA with the clips on the cable...once the cable is hooked onto the GBA system, it won't come off until you pinch the plastic nubs to release the clips from the notches. This ensures that the cable won't come unplugged during play. The GameCube plug is an ash-gray color to differentiate itself from the other controller colors on the market...so you know exactly which cable you're unplugging from the GameCube system.


















So you guys can see how Sonic Adavnced willl be conncecting to the GCN

Looks very interesting. I still need to get Sonic Advance, then maybe I'll rent Sonic Adventure 2.

Sounds good.... But I still think that Nintendo should have made the GBA connect to the back of the GCN controller, not controller ports. If they did this, then four people could use their controller, and their GBA for some games. Oh well.
