  • Wow, I didn't know they were doin' thing with the GBA-'Cube linkup. Yes, I know about the obvious ploy to sell more GBAs, but it's still a pretty neat idea

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>From Gamespot:

The adorable pink marshmallow Kirby will be getting his very own GameCube game later
this year. Kirby's new game, Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble 2, is the first game on the system that
actually requires the Game Boy Advance to play. Via a tilt-sensitive cartridge, you'll tilt the
GBA to control the game board underneath Kirby, causing him to roll toward his
objectives. If Kirby falls off the track the gameplay will switch directly to the GBA's screen
where you'll have to catch him with a cloud. Once caught, Kirby returns to the television
screen where the gameplay then continues. Tilt 'n' Tumble 2 is certainly one of the most
innovative uses of the new Nintendo hardware--one that we'll be seeing for some time.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I'll bet it's a bit more than that. It's the way they're using the linkup between the GBA and 'Cube that interested me, not the game. It's a lot more than just transferring data or picking football plays. The gameplay actually depends on the linkup, you can't play the game without it</div>
