Nintendo of America Inc. today
announced it will introduce the Nintendo GameCube Game Boy Player in May
2003 (March 2003 in Japan), allowing a library of more than 1,000 games designed
for the original Game Boy, Game Boy Color and the current Game Boy Advance to be
displayed on home televisions through the Nintendo GameCube console.
The Game Boy Player, a one-inch platform connecting to the bottom of the Nintendo GameCube, will match the Nintendo GameCube footprint and allow players to use either their console controller or Game Boy Advance to direct action on screen.
"For several years, the video game industry has been pushing forward to new technical frontiers . . . while at the same time celebrating classic hit games of the past," says Peter MacDougall, executive vice president, sales and marketing, Nintendo of America Inc. "This new Game Boy Player actually fulfills both desires: it instantly makes your current favorite Game Boy Advance game larger-than-life, and at the same time allows you to see your favorite portable title from a decade ago in an entirely new way."
