Gameboy Player for Gamecube (Grey)

The Game Boy Player is a GameCube peripheral developed by Nintendo that allows it to play Game Boy, Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance cartridges, allowing these games to be played on a television. It connects via the high-speed parallel port at the bottom of the GameCube and requires the use of a startup disc to access the hardware. Rather than emulating a Game Boy system, the Game Boy Player uses physical hardware almost identical to that of a Game Boy Advance. The device does not use the enhanced effects used by the Super Game Boy (a similar peripheral for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System).
