Title: What I can do since I kept my GameCube!
Post by: UncleBob on December 10, 2006, 02:59:49 PM
Just for kicks, I put my Game Boy Player disc into my GameCube and had my GameCube monitor hooked up into it. Booted the GameCubeBoy up without a cart in it, but with a GBA/GCN Cable going to my Wii - in the Fourth Player Port.
Next, I booted up my Wii. In both the Wii and the GameCube, each First Player Port contained a wicked cool Hori Digital Controller (a.k.a. Game Boy Player Controller). Since my wife was watching some show about Giant Squid (?), I had to run my Wii through my PS1 monitor. And into my Wii went Pac Man Vs.!
And I played a game of Pac Man Vs. all by myself (since my wife was really into the Giant Squid show), on two little screens.
It's almost like I have my second Game Cube I've always wanted. When I finally manage to get around to finishing TP, I'll have to play through Wind Waker again on Wii, using the GCN/GBP/Monitor combo as my Tingle Tuner.

I can take pictures, as I have of various things before... but be warned, they'll be with my super-crappy camera phone.

dude, that giant squid show was really cool. And the one about ocean life done using CG graphics was even better.
Uncle Bob, any word on Wii + Walmart? I have no Wii
And also, do the GBA games look all pixalated and jagged on the big screen, or more like SNES?

Here's you a pic, folks... Again, sorry it's crappy.
kingsx - you'll just have to call about every day for hopes of getting a Wii from your WalMart.

It's almost as cool, but not quite as cool as when I did this:
Original Game Boy Tetris in the Game Boy Player in the GameCube on the GameCube Monitor. Original Game Boy Tetris in the Super Game Boy 2 in the Game Genie in the Super Nintendo on the Television. And the two are linked together in a two player match. (As with the Pac-Man vs., though, I was playing by myself... I need a friend...)

I got my new phone today, and thus I can take better quailty pictures.
Unfortunatly, until I purchase either a data cable or a micro SD card + adapter, I can only transfer 1 MP pictures to my computer via Picture Message. Once I get the data cable or card, I'll have 2 MP pictures.
Either way, I can't directly post the picture on the forums, but here's a new photo I took of Pac-Man vs.
