Anyone tried gameboy player with Gamecube?

[Riprorin]

Is the game boy player worth buying?

Looks cool to me. I am definitely going to be picking one up.

How much is it? Anyone know?

I'm assuming it's using it's own hardware to run the games and just borrowing the gamecubes video outs and controllers. That being the case, I'd guess it's close to $50 or so.

Linky bestbuy

44 bucks at best buy, I want a polarized screen, the best time i use it is at work, when everyone else goes on smoke breaks i go out to the car and play but the glare is horrible with the SP, i end up staring at myself alot if i dont get the angle just right.

Nintendo should release a SNES compilation disk with all the greatest SNES games they released on it. You can't tell me that they can't code an emulator to run those games on the Gamecube hardware. IMHO, there weren't nearly as many great games on N64 as there were on SNES.

SNES was in many ways the pinnicle of gaming goodness for Nintendo. I think they are very capabile of releasing something that runs SNES games on the Cube platform, but I doubt they will. There is a lot of money in re-releasing classics for the GBA. Take A Link To The Past for instance, or Donkey Kong Country.

seems pointless to me. gameboy games are a last resort when your bored.. and AWAY from your console
