Are you kidding? Think of all the people freaking out just because each player needs a GBA to play Crystal Chronicles, and calling Nintendo money grubbing assholes because of that. Now think of how these same people will feel if they can only play Mario Kart multiplayer if each player has a gamecube, a copy of the game, a controller, and a TV to play it on.

Console sales aren't where the real profit lies with Nintendo. They would make more money by selling more copies of the game, then they would by selling more cubes.

Yes, nintendo is starting to get on my nerves with these ridiculous requirements for multiplayer. Especially with final fantasy cc. Each person has to have a gba, that's just obsurd(I will be getting one though,lol). And nintendo knows that the games are so good that people will run out and get the extra gba's and cube's just to play.

true, all the parts to make a cube cost money, they might be only making a few bucks at the most off a cube, but a disc is a piece of plastic, if they are getting $40 to $50 for each one thats a lot of money

Getting 3 other people with GBAs is NOT a hard thing to do. The GBA is the current #1 selling console right now, after all. Getting 3 other people willing to spend over $500 on equipment (cube, tv, game) is just stupid, and nobody will ever do that.

Well, hardly any of my friends have gba's. So well just have to borrow them from people who do. i'm sure we can find some.

Yep. With the original GBA I couldn't see a thing. I paid $79.99 for it and I barely used it, 'cause I couldn't see the games. When I got the SP, it's game time everywhere (it's portable) and every time (I'm hooked).

Oh hellz yeah. First off, its got a light, the GBA is almost impossible to see unless you're in direct sunlight, and that damages the screen. Second, its got a rechargable battery built-in; no more $$ wasted on batteries! Third, its new design is incredibly portable, you can bring it anywhere easily, break it out, and have a blast.

You won't be disappointed. The games for the GBA is almost half that of GCN, so if you put your resources (money) into that, you'll be in gaming bliss.
