I got a pretty good laugh out of that. Never saw that article before.
I love seeing extravagant applications of technology.

I've never played Four Swords (Adventure), but one plus of the GBA game is getting a version of one of the better Zelda games ever made along with it.

I recently played FSA for the first time and loved it, and this was on single-player. A friend of mine did come over and we played a little bit of two-player, and it was even more enjoyable. I would definitely agree that it is way better than the original Four Swords.

And of course, if you are interested in completing the trilogy, you should also check out The Minish Cap. It's a single-player game, but it is one of the best games in the series, IMO.

I am curious, why did you get a laugh out of that article?

It is a pretty over-the-top idea. I mean 5 tvs, 5 gamecubes. Kinda funny in how crazy it is.

Yeah, mostly what ManzanaCheese said.
Also it might have been in part because I didn't fully understand the concept while skimming through the article, and that I had never considered the possibility of using the GBP as a GBA with link cable games. That realization was really humorous for me.

Didn't mean to offend, and I'm sorry if I did.

Would love to play FF:CC like that, but it seems like a bit too much work for me. Edit: Nevermind. I just realized that I still didn't fully understand the concept, and had a laugh about it again....

I getcha, I was just curious. Most people just think its way over the top and not that it is funny. I created the setup for a convention and it traveled around a good bit. FFCC is excellent in the setup - shortly before I did the 4 Swords setup at a convention, I played through FFCC with Ack and some others in a hybrid setup. The GBP as a GBA idea came to me when I was stuck at a red light on my way home from work. Initially I only did Pacman VS, which was the reason I came to the site...

But the article, as over the top as it is, brought us Flake and a couple others. So it did its purpose.

Finally got to play this with my Fiance and it is awesome! We played the GC version, I got a couple link cables and used our GBA's we had. The idea of using the GBA as a controller/screen is awesome, after palying for a minute my Fiance had a really good point, this setup is just like what the Wii-U will be like, and I heard about Pac-Man Vs. and that is just like one of the games they showed off for the Wii-U! Its just funny how similar the idea of the link cable is to what the Wii U is.
