Alternative GameCube GBA Adapter Launched

An anonymous reader writes "GamesIndustry.biz has the scoop that Datel will be launching an alternative GameBoy Advance player for the GameCube, an unofficial third-party device that plugs into the memory slot of the GameCube. The Advance Game Port will be smaller than the official GameBoy Player, and play GBA games only, but is cheaper (30 GBP) then the Nintendo version (40 GBP)." No word on US release, but it's interesting to speculate/dream that Datel could theoretically make devices to adapt other Nintendo systems to GameCube.

    The think I don't like about this device is that it will most likely be emulation instead of hardware. There no way something in the memory slot of the Gamecube could be playing a gba game and sening out video. I've had my share of shitty emulation already.
