Like many years ago on the SNES they made a product which allowed people to play their fav Gameboy games on the Super Nintendo, Now the idea coming back, and making a small surpise and just adding to the list of products you can use with the Gamecube such as the GC to GBA Link Cable etc...
The new Gamecube Game Boy Player will be attached at the bottom of the Gamecube and allows players to use Game Boy, Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance games on the TV while using your Niffy Gamecube Pad but still can use their GBA for other stuff such as trading and mutiplayer. Also if one player doesn't have a GBA but another does, they can still trade data back and forth between the handheld and the Game Boy Player.
Other little details like that the Cube will power the Gameboy player instead of them damm Powered Clinder objects...(I dunno how to spell it :'(... )
And an other question, How much will all this cost?
5,000 Yen = $41 US Dollers. Which means I'm guessing under £40 :D

But I thought you needed the GBA to put the cartridges in? Or at least as a controller?

you can preorder it there
if it plays GBA games then you will be able to play any region games, GBAs are zone free machines so there is no reason why the add on wont be

Well, for one, i'm certainly getting it. Looks amazing. One thing though. I suppose it would be possible to import from america (and Japan for that matter). I mean, it says you have to use a disk, yes? Well, you could use the freeloader, but I wouldn't be sure. probably best just waitng for the PAL one, that is, if they are formatted, after all.
