I think that the tingle tuner turned out pretty well. its a very good way to use the gameboy advance link cable.

Finally got money again today.  But Skies of Arcadia was sold out at Walmart (other places STILL haven't gotten it though), and no link cables were to be found.  I will try again tomorrow... or soon.

I had lots of fun using the tuner. When my sister plays games she asks for my help a lot, it gets annoying after awhile. Using the tingle tuner, I can help her while having a bit of fun myself. Plus it's funny to keep calling her to look somewhere when she's carrying something.

i cant get over how funny some of the lines are.  That alone is worth using it

Hey Grey Ninja, if you are talking about the GBA-GCN link cable you won't find it in stores.  It can only be bought from Nintendo's online store over at www.nintendo.com.  Same thing goes for the GCN Component Cables and the GBA SP Headphone Adapter.

As for the Tingle Tuner, yeah it's fun.  I played with it with my brother.  Although, only being able to move on a horizontal plane is annoying.

You dont have to buy the link at the Nintendo store...you should be able to find it at Best Buy's Funcoland's or Toys R Us. All of those stores around me have them....should check it out there.And the Tingle Tuner IS kick ass!

I like when he gets stuck in a crack and he thinks Gannon is coming to get him. I didn't get all of the Statues yet. All I need to find is the Goddess Tower one.

What's the point of collecting golden statues?  Is there a reward?



Also, anyone find the Gameboy Color hand-me-down tingle tuner?  What is that used for?

It's available at many stores in my area, but all the ones that were open were sold out.  I will try again on Friday though at an earlier time of day.

I love the tingle tuner too.
I think it really changes the style of gameplay though, at least it does for me.

Without it, just normally playing, it feels like a regular zelda game.

But when I use it with another person, the way I play is just totally different.  It feels like more of a 'find something on Tingle Tuner, tell GCN player to go there...etc...'
More like I'm ordering him around on a mission or something.

i really like how it works, for me at least, it adds a lot of more replay value, and a different style of playing the game.

i got mine at toys r us and i see it at wal mart all the time...for people who complain...its a cheap price to pay for connectivity...you should already have a gameboy and if you didnt it wont hurt your game experience but it sure is cool.

I got a link cable, and I must say that I have rather enjoyed bombing the hell out of my friends with their hard earned cash.

The tingle tuner was a great idea.
WW is already a game people will sit and watch you play for hours, but with the link, there's a lot more to it.

When I first got WW my buddy Steve chilled as Tingle and we played for hours like that. Some of Tingles comments are quite funny =)

A good timem overall
