“Don’t get Kirby too close to the edge or he’ll fall to his doom. Move the GBA!”<\/span><\/p>\n

Yet another segment from ONM’s lengthy hyped-up GameCube preview, this time attempting to demonstrate the exciting possibilities of your Game Boy interacting with a big boy console, hopefully in more ways than just exchanging Pok\u00e9mon<\/i>! Like exchanging Chao! Visiting a secret island where you can uncover rare and exotic fruit and furniture! And… a game that would never see release!
\n(aren’t we overdue a redo of Koro Koro Kirby<\/i>, especially now that the Wii U has all that tech built-in?)<\/span><\/p>\n

There’s something inherently endearing about the idea of cross-communication between consoles and handhelds, but the disparity in power and sheer inconvenience of connecting them kinda sank it, I thought – that and I can’t remember any examples that felt like a worthwhile use of my time. It’s actually frustrating that most hardware nowadays has built-in wireless communication – even your bloody refridgerator! – and yet we don’t see this sort of thing anymore? The closest we have are “companion apps” that the best response I can give them is, “oh, isn’t that cute?<\/i> BUT IT’S WRONG<\/b>“<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
