Check out how they're bringing wireless gaming to the palm of your hand.

The High-Tech Nintendo Game Boy Advance Wireless Adaptor!

If you're a multiplayer gamer and dig all the cool multiplayer GBA games, then Nintendo's newest toy, the GBA Wireless Adaptor, is the gadget for you! It plugs into the back of your GBA and lets you hook up with other players who have one, just by being near them! The only restrictions you have with the new wireless adaptor is that you have to stay within a 10 foot range of your gaming buddy and you have to make sure you don't have a wall between you, otherwise you're all set!

Free Multiplayer Gaming Action With the Wireless Adaptor

One of the coolest features of the Wireless Adaptor is that, if you have certain games, you only need one copy to let all your [kwlink]friends[/kwlink] play it with you. One of you can plug in the game, then the rest of you hook up for a multiplayer game and you'll automatically [kwlink]download[/kwlink] all the game info you need to play. It saves you $$$ cuz you and your friends can share a single copy of the game!
