Four Swords Adventures 2 players

[Girmi007]

Hi everybody,

I'm trying to figure out whether or not I need 2 GBA's (+ link cables) to play The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures with 2 players.
I've looked it up on the internet and although it is always mentioned that you do need GBA for multiplayer, some sites say the 1st player can use the GC controller and only the second (or third/fourth) player(s) need a additional GBA. Can anybody tell if this is the case?

Greets,
Girmi

If i remember correctly, you do not need a GBA with link cable if you play the game alone; the GBA display will pop up on your tv when neccessary. However, you will need a GBA for each player (that includes player 1) if you play the game with 2+ people.

You remember correctly, tesla.

Thanks for the info, guys. Too bad, really wanted to play it with a friend.
I have an old GBA lying around so I would be willing to buy a link cable. But 2 cables + an extra GBA is a bit too much.
