Looks great! But wait.. Can Gameboy players for the Gamecube actually be linked and played on two big screens? If this i correct then i must get this! :)
of course they can. That's exactly what I was showing there. :)

This is great! Did not know that the Gameboy player did have ports for a link cable. Is there anything one need to think about or is it just to get the stuff you listed?

Would also be great to have a list of all good GBA games with link support :)

Just the stuff I mentioned. Many many GB, GBC and GBA games support two player. HOWEVER you should realize that most of them require TWO cartridges. SOME GBA games did use a multiboot system which allowed one cart only to do two player games. I"m actually working on a pretty complete rundown for my blog at a later date.
