    Can a regular GBA hook up with a GC and play on a TV?

    I was thinking about getting this GBPlayer thing, but a separate GBA has the advantage of portability and some games hook up with the GC... I don't think you'd be able to use both at the same time if you used the GBPlayer.
    Stay cool
    and be somebody's fool this year

    Klashe, worst for the TV hack.

    Nope, sadly, it would of been a nice feature.

    Right, because you have to put in a disc for the player. ITs 49 for it or 99 for a GBA, I guess if you thought you were going to use it on the road much then it might be a good idea

    Well I got mine today, I played the Warioware on it, its pretty swet . I dont have a GBA, and dont travel much unless driving to work school or elsewhere, so it being portable wont help much. I was wondering what it would look like on the big screen, but it was a lot more enjoyable and clear to see. The GC controller works well with it and there are a few extra options that are necessary, but make it more worth the 49.99

    but we only got 5 in, sold out, and all the EB games in the area sold out as well, you might have to wait a while to get it.

    The cool thing about the gameboy player is that it uses anti aliasing on the games so they don't look blocky when stretched out on the tv.

    A lot of the games on the gba are better than super nintendo quality...so I think it would be phat playing the Castlevanias, Metroid, Advance Wars, etc on a tv.

    Yea, im surprised how good the GC's analog stick works for AW2, havent tried other games but its a lot better than using the Dpad with AW2.

    yeah, I knew of the stick's excellence when I played Metroid via the Prime - Fusion hookup deal

    I got the thing today, maybe I'll finally finish these RPGs I have
