Well what have we here?
"Datel has been working on an alternative to Nintendo's Game Boy Player, which allows you to play Game Boy games on the GameCube.
Datel's "Advance Game Port" will be smaller and cheaper than Nintendo's, costing £29.99. It will fit into the memory card slot and allow Game Boy games to be plugged into that." - Cube Europe.
Also, this thing only plays GBA games, not GB/GBC ones.
Wouldn't touch anything made by Datel myself anyway, they make half-effort products.

The Freeloader works fine but im not too sure about Action Replay. I know that too many codes on may cause the thing to crash. But when im on Resident Evil with two of three codes active, I dont expect the thing to suddenly freeze with a loud buzzing noise. And Splinter Cell... the infinate ammo cheat.. that doesnt work.
But meh.. I can play F-Zero right now so im happy.

No... The FreeLoader was a terrible thing, wasn't it....
Damn them for allowing us to play ANY GameCube with the simplest of ease... How dare they!!
If it wasn't for them, we'd be spending hundreds-of-pounds-more on new TVs, converters and stuff, just to sample the likes of Animal Crossing and Winning Eleven 6, which will never get released over here.... "Grrrrr!"
:P
I'm interested to see how this works, though; seeing as it'll save me a good-deal of cash instead of buying an "over-priced" GameBoy Player... Whether it makes my 'Cube 'cube-shaped' or not!
Really, they're just trying to show us how 'simple' and 'easy' it really is to play GBA games through your GameCube, and how you don't need to fork-out extra on Nintendo's own. The "Legends"!

I've never had any probs with any Datel products, already have a GB player, cost £35 from Comet months ago.
