A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Inside the thoughts of Sir SquallSnake.
Hot Wheels: Stunt Track Driver on Gameboy Color (there was also a more robust PC version) features a 2-player link cable mode. Unfortunately, this 1-v-1 racer is limiting, boring, and you don’t even need to play it to win. Simply holding “A” without using the d-pad provides the best results and a password must be […]
The Japanese version of Transformers: Beast Wars Metals 64 is Transfer Pak compatible with Kettou Transformers Beast Wars: Beast Senshi Saikyou Ketteisen, another Japan-exclusive Gameboy Color counterpart. When connected, the Megatron X skin becomes unlocked. Also, if any other GB cart is inserted upon boot up, a bonus perk might be awarded to the player […]
Rampage World Tour is the first Rampage title for Gameboy Color but it sadly omitted an official 2-player link cable co-op mode. However, the developers started this feature and left this option hidden in the final built. By entering a secret code on the main menu (hold SELECT, then hit UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, DOWN, […]
By linking Metroid Fusion to Metroid Zero Mission (2004) on Gameboy Advance, players can unlock the Metroid Fusion picture gallery in Metroid Zero Mission. To do this, make sure you are holding START + SELECT as you boot up Fusion when connected with a link cable. The Fusion Gallery is unlocked by default in the […]
Puyo Puyo~n Party is a Japanese exclusive N64 game that made use of the Transfer Pak when connected to Puyo Puyo Sun, another Japan exclusive title. When connected, the images unlocked in the Gameboy game become viewable on the TV through the N64 game. However, there are pictures hidden within the game’s data that are […]
Neogeo Pocket Color Selection Vol.1 and Neogeo Pocket Color Selection Vol.2 are two amazing compilations released on Switch 1 and on Steam. While there was some slight variations between the Switch and Steam versions in terms of the game roster, these bundles should be celebrated for their quality emulation, robust feature set (multiplayer supported games […]
Developed by the same team that created Club House Games on Nintendo DS, Slide Adventure MagKid (2007) was a Nintendo published DS game that turned the dual screened handheld into a computer mouse. By attaching the special mouse peripheral into SLOT-2 (the GBA cartridge slot at the bottom), players slide their DS like using a […]
Mario Tennis and Mario Golf on N64 and Gameboy Color were developed by Camelot. This forward thinking developer included Transfer Pak functionality in these sports titles but Mario Golf has one unfortunate downside of connecting the console version to the handheld version, one misstep that was corrected with Mario Tennis. Mario Golf was the first […]
Mickey’s Speedway USA (N64) is Transfer Pak compatible with the Gameboy Color version of the same name. When the GBC cart is inserted into the TP, Huey becomes a playable racer. However, it took a few attempts to get this feature to work. If it doesn’t work for you, keep resetting until it finally takes. […]
Shantae Advance: RIsky Revolution was originally targeting a mid-2000s release but was sadly canceled during development. However, thanks to the efforts of the original developer, Wayforward, and Limited Run Games, Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution was completed and released on a physical cartridge. A digital version will also be released on current gen consoles. As if […]
