2nd February 2004:
Crystal Bundle For March
Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles will be released in a bundle with a Game Boy Advance Cable on March 11th.
Posted by Chris Barnett - GameCube,Game Boy Advance - UK and Europe

As if the new Final Fantasy game was not anticipated enough, it will be released in a bundle with a Game Boy Advance Cable for a limited time. Though this may sound like a gimmick it is far from it; the connectivity could redefine the compatibility between the GameCube and Game Boy Advance.

Not only does the cable allow players to access valuable data on the Game Boy Advance screen, it also allows a unique four player multi-player experience. As fans of the series will know, teamwork is a key to success in the game, so real life team mates will no doubt add to this.

The real beauty of the Game Boy Advance being used as a controller is that it offers each player a unique set of information since they have their own screen. This will mean that each player will be able to receive unique instructions (such as objectives and tips) that they will need to communicate to team mates as soon as possible, or maybe keep secret until the right moment (each player will have a task set for them at the start of a level that they must aim to complete during the progress of it. If they complete their task first they will get a bonus at the end, creating a strategic aspect: help your team mates or hold details back to help yourself).

This sounds impressive in theory but should be even better when you are sitting with four friends in front of a television and an individual Game Boy screen. Just get four friends before the release date: WITHOUT PAYING THEM TO 'PRETEND'!
