"Gameboy player."

Anyone got it? How do you feel about it? Is the multiplayer up to the standards you thuoght it would be? Any tips on how to get the best out of it (put a game in obviously!)?

Just got one, and I want to know how well it has been received. :)

Question, can you use the Player AND still plug in the portable battry thing underneath (has th player got a through port basically)

battery info for those of you who've not seen one (I guess the battery would last alot longer with using carts rather than GC discs?)

It says the battery last an hour, but a friend who has one, never gets less than 1 hour 45 mins out of a charge.

Hello?
Feed me answers

for that battery thing...it depends on how it connects to the gc..is is through one of the ports on the bottom or in the normal power socket on the back of the gc?
cos i'm guessing(but i dont hav a GBplayer so wots relly needed is for sum1 who has oen to answer) the GBplayer has the same underneith as the GC..the screws in same place..anti friction pads and other stuff..cos otherwise it could stop people playing it wherever they want...

but mu point is that is the player is the same dimensions as the bottom of the cube...the battery thing should work.


and about the picture being all blocky, etc....did you ever have a super gameboy for the snes? if you did...you know wot to expect..just in GBA graphics. if not..of course it will be more blocky...but since the GBA graphics are so good, it'll be roughly the same as playing a snes game...probably better

has anyone actually improved their scores/times when playing GBA games on the Player ? I guess so, it must be hard not to when you have decent picture/size screen and controller. Iridion 2 springs to mind as being a game I could probably do 10 times better on, on the Player.

Analogue control on Doom rocks!

Not yet I am at my parents house so I have to wait till I get home.

What's the point in it. If you want to play GBA games, play them on your GBA! If you're at home you may as well play on your Cube anyway. :S

It isn't analogue control. It's digital on an analogue stick. There's a difference, and it's quite a big one.
