anyone able to try this on a Panasonic Q yet?

...

Is that the pad that looks like an SNES one with the Z button as a face button?

How does the screen size measure up and does it have extras like the super gameboy did (border editing, etc.)?

I thought someone mentioned that it didn't work on the Panasonic Q (don't remember who though)?

Yep, thats the pad, and yes it has options that the Super Gameboy had (minus a custom color config menue for old GB games, but you can select pre-sets like the GBA did). Two sreen sizes are available, and a refresh rate selection is included as well to eliminate blurring.

Nintendo finally did something right!

NCSX thinks there may be a solution. I'm just wondering if anyone has tried it to see what is holding it all back...

It's me

GB player will not work on Panasonic Q.
Venders are waiting for a special adaptor if any 3rd party will make one.

Do you have a link or a pic of that pad. It sounds very awesome. I've always felt the GC pad design was odd and cumbersome. It sounds like this controller could be a nice change. Thanks for the help man.

Is a swap disc required for the GBA Player since it comes with that bootdisc?

Shapermc · Mar 26, 2003

The GBA player and the Q aren't compatable because of the feet on the bottem of the Q mainly. I had a link to the article and I will try to look it up.

EDIT: <a href="http://planetgamecube.com/previews.cfm?action=profile&id=236" target="_blank">http://planetgamecube.com/previews.cfm?action=profile&id=236</a>

found it.

After flipping over my Panasonic Q after I got home, I understood why the Game Boy Player will not fit on the hardware. The legs on the unit would get in the way. You could remove the legs from your Q to make it fit, but personally, I’m not amputating my Q.

No. But after starting a game and playing around with the menu, you can figure everything out.

Thanks for the pic. It looks good. I just wish they would have swithced the buttons back to a semi-decent configuration then the goofy big A small b and surrounding X and Y. It's just too cumbersome. Oh well, the d-pad looks much bigger and if I plat GBA games on the GC I'll only be niding the A&B buttons, so I guess it's not too bad.

I've heard around fifty bucks. I'm more worried about what colors they are releasing here. I hope we get everything Japan did.

Do the sprites look BIG ?

I cant imagine that the castlevania games look very good on a 50 inch screen .
