When I was younger, I was at a game store and they had a GameBoy Player with the start up disc for about $60 and a complete in box copy of Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance for around $35. I only had enough money to get one or the other and went with the GameBoy Player. In hindsight, that was probably one of the best choices I have ever made.

I don’t know if you know, but there are homebrew solutions for the disc too, and they have SIGNIFICANTLY improved video quality over the OEM Nintendo disc. All you really need is a copy of Zelda Wind Waker.

They are well worth it. I got mine with the startup disc for about $120 USD probably about 3-4 years ago. Feel i got one at the right time. I use GBI (gameboy interface) to play games on my gameboy player though nowadays instead of the stock startup disc.

If you have gameboy link cable that you'd use for something like four sword adventures, (link port one end gamecube plug on the other) you can use your gameboy as the controller for the gameboy games instead of trying to use the gamecubes smaller dpad

1:27 - only when you have no way to boot into swiss. from there you will only need the gbi application. booting into swiss is possible without any soldering at all. f.e. with action replay and gecko sd... or using some ingame bugs in f.e. wind waker or animal crossing. if you are good at soldering, picoboot is also an option and will cost you only about 10 bucks in total. using gbi you will have a much better experience than using the official game boy player startup disc.

I was lucky with those pieces. I bought the startup disc in a GameCube lot for 50€ (with 5 more games included Pokémon Colosseum and Metroid Prime) and the Player for less than 40€. It was something that I really wanted! I also have a Super Game Boy for SNES, let's say that I'm a lover of those accessorizes 😂👍
