All MULTIPLAYER GB/GBC games on SUPER GAMEBOY - NO LINK CABLE, SNES accessory, Gameboy/Gameboy Color

- Over 20 Gameboy games have special Super Gameboy functionality that allowed for multiplayer gaming by only needing one cartridge. Many were exclusive to Japan.
Normally, 2 Gameboys, 2 copies of a compatible game, and 1 link cable are needed for two-player multiplayer.
However, all the games featured in this video support 2-4 players by only needing a single Gameboy cartridge and a Super Gameboy used in a Super Nintendo. Obviously extra controllers are needed too. But it beats going through the chore of tethering systems with a link cable. A few games actually support the SNES MultiTap accessory to allow for 4 player simultaneous play!
And as an FYI, this is only available on the Super Gameboy. The Gamecube's Gameboy Player (GBP) does not contain Super Gameboy functionality.

Wow, I had no idea this feature was a thing, that's so cool! Thank you for documenting them all ^^
And thanks for the continued support!
Thank you for this great video! A list of interesting GB games I never knew I would need until you compiled it! 😊
Thanks for watching and the comment! This video took a ton of time to create so I am glad it is useful.
I had Battle Arena Toshinden as a kid, and I totally remember discovering its 2-player mode one day. A friend had a Super Game Boy, and I had brought some of my games over to try out. We played a crap ton of two player battles in jet mode for the next several weeks!
Yeah, this would have been awesome especially back in the day. Only needing 1 cart to play multiplayer is actually a huge cost saver when you are like 10 years old.
Did you ever play any of the other SGB multiplayer games I featured in this video? Or just Battle Arena Toshinden?
@@ZackGaz Pretty sure my buddy had a copy of Wario Blast which we played multiplayer with as well. He had 5 older brothers and one younger, so there were always multiple generations of games mixing around at their house--whereas I only ever owned around five game boy games at a time, and no home console until I saved up for a gamecube in eighth grade 😅
@@rummyraisin It is always interesting to hear game stories when everyone was younger as those memories tend to stick with you.
And I remember wanting Wario Blast when I was a kid but instead passed on it because I got the multi-tap and Bomberman on SNES so I didn't really need the GB version. And you only had enough money to get, maybe, a couple games each year.
@@ZackGaz Truly...It's strange how having fewer options probably increased my enjoyment of what I did have. I should dip into that state of mind more often. Maybe thin my herd...
@@rummyraisin When you are a kid, you have a ton of time but no money to buy new games. As you get older, you have more money but then no time. Can't even tell you how many games I bought and never played once, or only played for like 4 minutes. The conundrum of life.
Awesome video!! Had no idea
Thanks for watching and the comment! That is why I wanted to make this video - hoped you learned some cool stuff.
Thanks a lot for this video! I suppose if Super Chinese Land 3 had ever gotten a translated port, it would have been called something like Super Ninja Land 3...
Exactly! And the Super Ninja Boy games, especially when played in co-op, are actually pretty awesome. Hopefully one day this game will get an English patch.
I remember when I discovered KoF '95 could be played 2-player, it blew my mind
Totally, all these games blew my mind making this video here in 2023!
2:40 yoooo is that a platform fighter on the gameboy? The essence of smash bros before it was even conceived. That's quite something I gotta see if I can pick up a cartridge of that.
the original battle arena toshinden on 32 bit cd consoles have a ring out like in virtua fighter; it is just implementing that
@@japangamejunk Yeah, I think Battle Arena Toshinden GB might be one of the few/only GB fighters that has a Ring Out feature. Which is pretty interesting.
I appreciate the Bomberman GB series (includes Wario Blast), Takara fighting games, and the Pocket Puuo Puyo series (Puyo Puyo, Pocket Puuo Puyo 2, Pocket Puuo Puyo Sun) with SGB multiplayer.
Amazing video. What about the infrared function in GBC games?
Infrared GBC games are on my list of future video ideas. I actually bought a Japanese version of Robopon GBC for this very topic. One day, if I ever get Patreon supporters, hopefully I can make it happen.
Thanks for watching and the comment!
For the Japanese writing have you ever tried the camera mode on Google Translate on your phone or tablet? I'm often impressed what It can do but I'm not sure if it would work with something so pixelated.
I literally did this with all the Japanese games but had awful results. I never worked, not even a little. So I had to trial-and-error each game until I got the multiplayer mode to work, which takes a ton of time because you can't simply go back once you start the game - you need to reset the whole console and try again. This alone took a couple hours of troubleshooting.
However, it worked a few times when I was recording my GBA Single Pak link videos. But didn't work at all with these SGB games.
@@ZackGaz Shame. It's impressive when it works. I even used it to find out what graffiti said in Far Cry 6 and even on Takeshi's Castle. 😂
Here’s a tip for a video. Link two GameCubes with Gameboy players on two TV:s and play GB games in link mode!
Yes, that would be living the dream.
At some game conventions, they sometimes have 4 Cubes/GB Players connected to TVs so everyone can play Zelda Four Swords on their own screen, which is super cool.
@@ZackGaz If I would like to connect a Gameboy Colour to a GB Player on Gamecube for link mode. Which link cable is required?
@@MagisterHamid you will need a GBC cable then. A GBA cable won't work with GBC (unless it has a specific switch to toggle between GBC/GBA - some 3rd party cables have this).
i have several of these and the super game boy but lack the friends to enjoy multiplayer sad face
I hear ya. It is really difficult to play couch multiplayer these days.
