when it arrives, i will use it zero times, instead disassembling it immediately and attempting to desolder a part
the normal gba link cable doesn't have the VCC and ground pins
so i'm using this guy for its connector and basically nothing else. i want to attach something else on the other side of those pins, and it needs power
@monorail There's a pin for power on the link cable?
@onfy I don't see why it wouldn't, it just plugs into the link port?
@noiob Look,
I'm kind of used to Nintendo just abandoning stuff.
@onfy gameboy backwards compatibility was pretty solid
@onfy the whole link cable situation seems a bit complicated though, there's three generations of them with various levels of compatibility. the printer came with a special cable that had both DMG and second-gen plugs, which should fit in any game boy except the micro (which doesn't do game boy games anyways)
@noiob I was recently thinking about how the Micro is incompatible with the GameCube cable too.
