I was wondering if anyone knew anything about the GBA / GC Link Cable? All I know is that you can link up Sonic Advance and Sonic Adventure 2: Battle, and apparently the Gamecube Legend of Zelda game will use it, too. Anyone know anything?

You can also link the Mickey mouse games.

Not much out there to make me want to buy the cable just yet :-(

When Sonic Adventure (the original one) is released on GameCube next year, it is also expected to be compatible with the new GBA Sonioc title - Sonic Advance.

I'd expect it to work in a similar Chao-Caring-style way to that of Sonic Adventure 2: Battle and Sonic Advance.

Nothing's been confirmed yet, but it's seems very likely.

The link cable will also be used in Harry Potter & the Chamber of Secrets. When you link up the GBA level you can unlock an exclusive new Gamecube level which will make the Gamecube version the better of the three. Gamesmaster also say that of the three next gen console versions the Gamecube one is easily the most impressive.

Well I got the offical lead a while back and it's not bad at all. If you have both the GC and GBA versions of Sonic then this is well worth it, especially if like the Chao!

I got one too, it wasn't the official one though, as SR had run out of them, so I asked for a non-official one and got £2 in my Special reserve credit. They're pretty useful though, and when future titles come out, i'll be glad I had one. Imagine Mario party GC and Mario party on the GBA (Hopefully) and to roll the dice, you press A on the GBA, or you could use the GBA to have a map view. It'd be pretty cool.

:D

The coolest ISP ever!
In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.

Over the years I've become very jaded after many bad experiences with customer services, you have bucked the trend. Polite and efficient from the Freeola team, well done to all involved.
