  This is a must have if you want to play a 2 to 4 player game!! This device allows you to connect to another Gameboy Advance to play a multiplayer game. Definetly worth the price!

  No, not from Zelda, the new link cable from Nintendo designed especially for the GameBoy Advance is something you want if you like the head-to-head-to-head-to-head action. WOW! Four people can be linked up on special games for a multiplayer challenge. On some games, this even opens new events that otherwise can’t be gotten in normal gameplay. You don’t even need the same game-console ratio, because just one game pak provides enough fun for four people. Definitely worth the price. To link 2 consoles, you need 1 cable, with 3, you need 2 cables, and with 4, you need 3 cables.

  Quite fankly this is the best link cable I have never used. The main reasons I rave about the GBA link cable is because of its very practical/efficient nature and its groovy indigo parts. From the pic on amazon.com it appears to be quite long, which is a good thing (especially if your friends smell) and also so you can sit three rows away from somebody in a theater and play games. Oh and about the groovy indigo parts, wow I just have to say they couldn’t have chosen a better color. Indigo matches practically everything from my refrigerator right down to my toaster. Overall I have to give this crummy wire 5 stars, go Nintendo.

  This game link cable, in my opinion, is MUCH better than Game Boy Color’s game link cable. There are many more games which you can play multiplayer games, and many of the games only require one game pack, making it much better. And the games still have great graphics. This is a must have for any Game Boy Advance owner!
  Pros:
  1) Small, high quality
  2) Can connect up to 4 GBAs
  Cons:
  1) Only works with Game Boy Advance (for you GBC users)

  Overall, this Game Link Cable was great. My kids are greatful to me for getting it for them because now they can play against each other with their Gameboy Advance and Nintendo Gamecube. I really recommend that you get this if your child has a Gamecube and a Gameboy Advance. Two thumbs up!!

  The first time I used this cable to play with my cousin, I had a blast! With a computer game, there is only one screen, so you have to sit close to your opponent when you’re racing. But with this, you have your own console and your own screen and your own controls, and you can still see the other person’s character in the game. The cords are nice and long, so you don’t have to be right next to your opponent while racing. The only problem was that it can only connect two consols. But there is a big purple box in the middle of the cord, so if the third person has his own cable, she can just stick her cord in the box, and presto, you have three players! If you buy this, you’ll have a blast. I highly recommend it.

  I mostly used this to connect and play Mario Kart with my friends, but i was supprised that for that game i only needed 1 game. The cord connects the two gameboys together. It changes the way you play the game. It works with alot of games too.

  I recently received the GBA link cable for Christmas. It was fun batteling it out in the Mario’s World classic game. The cable is a pretty good length, about 3ft long, which is good for playing in a car or on a couch; and the cord is color coded which makes to easy to hook up. I would recommend this product to anyone who likes playing GameBoy Advance.

  It is very good for the GBA. If you file off the hump on the end you can make it a GBA/GBC link cable. Ha! I say to the producers, because I proved you wrong! Now I have a two in one deal, and I only payed for one!

  Nintendo advertises this cable to allow 4 people to play together off of one pack. Absolutely not a 100% true. Certain games such as NHL 2002, and other sports games, each player must have a pack to be able to connect. Many parents have found this out all too late on road trips and what not. Make sure you read the warning on the back of the game and instructions to see what you need for multiplayer gaming. (…)
