Customer Review: A link cable that sets Game Cube & GBA apart from the rest!
Summary: 5 Stars
As of this writing, it's to my understanding that there are only 2 games on the market that take advantage of the features available with the use of this cable: "Sonic Adventure 2: Battle" and "Animal Forest" (Japanese-only). But that's just the beginning!Use this cable with "Sonic Adventure 2: Battle":
If you've played Dreamcast's "Sonic Adventure" or "Sonic Adventure 2", then you're familiar with the beloved critters called "Chaos" (pronounced "ch" as in "chocolate"). With Game Cube's version, "Sonic Adventure 2: Battle", just remove your Game Cube controller from it's port, plug one end of this "Cube Link Advanced" cable into it, and connect your GBA to the other end. You can then transfer Chaos from your Game Cube's "Sonic Adventure 2: Battle" game to your GBA.
Now, I know what you're thinking, "Oh, I could do the same thing with the Dreamcast and a VMU. Then, I could take my Chaos for a 'walk' and play games with it." But, no! This is NOTHING like a Chao on a Dreamcast VMU! Your Chaos will not only be seen in the GBA's 32bit color, but you'll also be able to play REAL games on your GBA with your little Choas such as "Chao Karate" and "Chao Racing"! Also, trade Chaos with your friends via a GBA2GBA link cable!
"Animal Forest" (Japanese-only at this time):
Even though I do own a Japanese-import Game Cube, I have yet to get my hands on this game. Therefore, I can't tell you first-hand what transfers to the GBA; however, it seems that it's very similar to what I described above with the Chaos, except here it will be with the little animals from this game.
Another function served by this "GBA-to-Game Cube" cable is that it will allow you to use your GBA as a Game Cube controller (with compatible games only). For instance, you'll be able to plan "secret" football plays on your GBA, then execute them in the Game Cube game so that your opponent won't be able to see them coming!
