Yeah, the second discs are the "Bonus Disc", they were only available for pre-orders and first shipments of the game.
And you're hogging four of them? For shame...

I think there were demos, videos and bonus content for Fire Emblem you could add to the game via the GBA-GC connector.

I would just like to say that this is the most awesome setup I've ever seen.  You make me want to come over to play Four Swords now.  I really miss that game since a friend of mine lost my disc.  I have the case, but no disc.

Ah, Four Swords...*SIGH* I never got to play that with more than 3 people at once. I have all of the cables and three GBAs, but now no one wants to play it with me...  :'(

You mean warp pipe? I never tried it. Weren't those people hired by Nintendo to work on an online infrastructure? Whatever became of that, or is it what turned into the Nintendo WFC?

Those people were hyping themselves up to get bought out by a bigger company and then everyone figured out they were small time and not associated with anyone. Nothing ever came of it.

DemaSked...... :rolleyes:

We tried using WarpPipe once... didn't go very well.

Wouldn't be against trying it again, if anyone wants to give it a go.

I might be up to the task, although all I have now is Mario Kart DD, with todays faster speeds on comcast, it may not be so bad..

And, to go with my three GameCubes and one Panasonic Q...
That means it's time to step it up another notch; get another Cube and whatever else it will take to play five-screen Tetra's Trackers.

Well... I can do five screen Four Swords Adventures - Using the Wii as a 'cube.

Unfortunately, as my Wii is unmodded and can't play JPN games, I'm SOL for playing Four Swords Plus on it. :(

Even if you don't want to do a softmod, in principle, you could use a savegame exploit to launch a region-free launcher to boot the game.  Too bad the swap trick no longer works as you wouldn't need any special software.

Four Swords Plus is a GameCube title - it's the Japanese release of Four Swords Adventures, but includes Tetra's Trackers.

I can play Four Swords Adventures on the Wii and connect the GameCubes to it using the Game Boy Players, but I can't play Four Swords Plus on it, since it won't play Japanese games. :(

Too bad the Freeloader doesn't work anymore. :(

Wait, how can you connect a Wii to a Game Boy Player or GameCube?

Oh yeah, I forgot about the GBA-to-GCN cable. I didn't know that could function on the Wii.

For some strange reason, she married me of her own free will.  Haven't figured that one out yet.
