Famitsu unveils this GameCube utility disc for Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire.
Pokemon Box for GameCube will be released on May 30 in Japan. The game
alone will retail at 2000 yen (around $16 US). There will also be a GBA
cable bundle for 2800 yen (around $22 US). Both packages will include a
special limited color of the Memory Card 59.
To play the game, players will also need a GBA, a copy of Pokemon Ruby or Sapphire, and a GBA link cable. Pokemon Box will serve as a utility tool for Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire, allowing players to organize and manage their Pokemon. Players are able to store up to 1500 Pokemon that they cannot carry with them in the GBA game.
Pokemon Box will also allow players to play Ruby and Sapphire on their TV. While playing on TV, when players catch a Pokemon, they can switch to Pokemon Box to store and organize the new monsters.
The game also features a gallery mode that lets players select a themed platform and arrange their Pokemon on it. It's just for showing off your collection.
And they're special edition memory cards, too, people pay for more than that for just the SE card alone on some platforms...
