 faulty - big mistake December 4, 2006
I attempted to use this with Zelda for the Game Cube and it did not work at all. Zelda would state that the game boy advanced was not connected and try all the various (undocumented) switches on the cable yielded 0 results. I thought this was going to be a bad purchase, but it was the only one at the store. Go with Nintendo OEM equipment or buy twice is the motto I should have followed.

i bought this at best buy because my friend had a game that you could link with. on the game package it said that you only needed one game cartridge. so i took it home and invited her over.we did everything correctly but only the gba sp with the game in it just started the game as normal and said there was an open connection. i ended up buying the same game and 2 player mode wasnt so great anyway. the directiond are lousy (only a few pictures) and the overall idea and look of it was good but it just wasnt practical. i would reccomend buying a nintendo brand link instead.
 The product is faulty, and the company's customer service is terrible. October 6, 2005

This cable claims to enable you to connect two GBAs or a GBA to a Gamecube. However, it has at least one data transmission bug that makes this product useless for certain applications, which is frustrating if you bought it specifically for the multi-function.br /br /According to my tests, the GBA-GBA connection worked fine with Chu-Chu Rocket, both in the initial program transmission and during the actual real-time gameplay. (Make sure that when you connect two GBAs, you follow the connection instructions exactly!) The GBA-GC connection also worked with Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles and Zelda: Four Swords.br /br /Unfortunately, the GBA-GC connection had some problems with Animal Crossing. The system is able to transmit information FROM the GC TO the GBA, but not the other way around. Thus, you can download Animal Island and the pattern program, but you cannot send your results back to the GC. You can still use the cable to go to the island, but since you lose everything you do on the GBA, it's not satisfying.br /br /I have seen enough reviews by people who have had the exact same problem with Animal Crossing that I know that this is not a chance product defect. This is Mad Catz's manufacturing of a clearly faulty, badly designed product.br /br /I contacted Mad Catz's customer service about this issue, and they did not respond. Although Mad Catz's other products may not have problems, I do not plan to buy anything from them again, as I do not want to support their business practices. I would encourage you to spend your money elsewhere, both to get yourself a quality product and to keep from supporting Mad Catz. br /br /I've given the product two stars because the connections worked for some games/applications, but there is no guarantee that it will work for others.
