The '''{{wp|Game Boy Player}}''' is an accessory for the [[Nintendo GameCube]]. As the name implies, it can be used for playing [[Game Boy]], [[Game Boy Color]], and [[Game Boy Advance]] games, and it even has a link port for linking up to other Game Boy systems and accessories. The Game Boy Player hooks up to the GameCube by being inserted underneath it. It comes with a special start-up disc that must be inserted into the GameCube before any Game Boy games can be played. The Game Boy Player hooks up to the GameCube by being inserted underneath it, and it has a start-up disc that has to be inserted into the GameCube before the Game Boy Player can be used. The Game Boy Player can be player with either a standard GameCube controller or a Game Boy Advance hooked with a link cable. The Game Boy Player is the successor to the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]]'s [[Super Game Boy]], which can only play Game Boy games.

There are a few titles that are not made for normal play on the Game Boy Player, such as ''[[WarioWare: Twisted!]]'' and ''[[Yoshi Topsy-Turvy]]'', because they require the player to rotate the entire system around due to the motion sensors on the cartridge, something that the GameCube wasn't designed to do. The games still boot and run normally, however.

While many GBA games may suffer from intense brightness and/or other minor graphical issues when played on a Game Boy Player, a few games, including two ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' games, ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', are specially optimized for use on the device. These games are distinguished by showing the Game Boy Player logo upon booting up, regardless of whether or not the device is being used. In addition, ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'' has a manual setting labeled "GB Player Mode" which adjusts the palettes that are better suited for the Game Boy Player.

-While many GBA games may suffer from intense brightness and/or other minor graphical issues when played on a Game Boy Player, a few games, including two games of the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]] (''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''), are specially optimized for use on the device, with rumble support for GameCube controllers as well.

-==Absent features==
-For games released on the original Game Boy, the Game Boy Player plays them in Game Boy Color mode and not Super Game Boy mode. As such, the available selectable palettes are those of the Game Boy Color, and the extended color palettes and/or multiplayer supports in ''[[Picross 2]]'', ''[[Donkey Kong (Game Boy)|Donkey Kong]]'', and ''[[Wario Blast: Featuring Bomberman!]]'' are unavailable. An exception is ''[[Game Boy Camera]]'', which does carry over the video recording support that it had on the Super Game Boy.

The games still boot and run normally, however.
-The Game Boy Player is incompatible with the [[Wii]], as it lacks the Hi-Speed Port of the GameCube where it plugs into. Additionally, the Game Boy Player matches the GameCube's footprint, while the Wii has a different footprint placed horizontally.
