For some gamers, the controller is everything. You may feel right at home with a DualShock 4 in your hands. By that same token, others can only thrive on a keyboard and mouse. Whether it’s out of necessity or because you like the idea, this handy device turns your Game Boy into a wireless controller.
It’s compatible with the original model, the GBP, GBC, and GBA SP. The receiver comes in a few different options as well, ranging from standard USB to a convenient GameCube option. While the novelty itself is pretty cool, the real value here is for those who play Game Boy games on their Wii virtual console.
Beyond the carts, there is also a transmitter option, with a second one coming down the pipeline in the near future. The Game Boy TX cart transmits up to 8 meters indoors. Every 2ms it checks the keys and sends a packet to the receiver.
Upgrade your screen to something a little more modern without sacrificing the feel of playing on a Game Boy console. It’s the best of both worlds!
