Me too. (obviously)

I never would had guessed

I hope so. It's the one Wii U game I am most hyped for!

Or it's the "Xenomech Saga" that's listed.

You have to play the original in multiplayer, three or four player is best. Playing it solo is doable but terribly boring.

I played it solo for 10 minutes one day - thought it was pretty and never touched it again. Playing co-op, do I need multiple TV's and GCN's, or is this one that uses the GBA as extra screens?

You need four GBAs, or you can be a man with five Cubes and four Gameboy Players. Or be even cooler than and have Cubes with Gameboy Players and GBAs for controllers.

Owning this set up would basically make you the king of all nerds, and it would require me to kneel in the presence of your posts.

I feel like this is a thing that has happened at a convention at some point.

I have plenty of cubes and 2 players, but zero gba's presently. I better stop talking elst my MK8 Wii U setup i've been planning might get side tracked.

I have the 5 Cubes and 4 GB players, and now 4 GBAs, but you need 8 GBA to GCN cables for that setup to work and I only have four. I use to do Zelda Four Swords, Pacman Vs, and Mario Kart Double Dash, at conventions, lan parties, and tournaments. I was planning on building an arcade cabinet for Four Swords but never got around to sourcing proper sized monitors for it.

Whew! For a second there, I thought that browsing these forums from the comfort of my chair was about to get a lot more complicated.

Seriously, however, I am a bit jealous of that set up. Some of the GBA/GC "connectivity" games are intriguing, but I think that they would be a lot more fun with multiple TVs.
