/vr/ - Retro Games

Gonna ask a specific question here because google aint giving me shit.

Is anyone aware if the cube GameBoy Player wont allow GBA games to enable download play to another gba/gameboy player? I got a 2nd player with the intents to do some multiplayer stuff, but it seems like the two games i tested would not trigger the download play function into the 2nd system when activated.

I first tested it with Boundish. I had it in the GBA Player with a link cable going into a GBA. Would not let me select the 2 player or Download options at all. I then tested Game&Watch Gallery 4 and tried the single pack multiplayer games on there. Kept saying to turn the 2nd system on which it was.

To make sure it wasn't the cable (it was pelican brand), i tried 2 game pack multi with Final Fight One and it had no issues doing 2 player between the gba player and regular gba. I haven't tried some other download play titles yet and i haven't tried download play to another gba player yet. I cant find anything online about it so idk if im being retarded and not doing something right, maybe one of yous are able to confirm it. I was also thinking maybe its just some retarded thing with the standard gba player boot up software that wont allow it.
