Troubleshooting; Warranty And Service - Nintendo GameCube Game Boy Player Folleto De Instrucciones

SYSTEM OPERATION
USING A GAME BOY SYSTEM WITH THE
GAME BOY PLAYER
SINGLE PLAYER GAMES
The Game Boy Advance system can be used as a controller with
the Game Boy Player by connecting it to the Nintendo GameCube
with the Nintendo GameCube Game Boy Advance cable.* This
cable can be plugged into any of the Controller Sockets on the
front of the Nintendo GameCube.
The Game Boy Advance system will not work as a controller if a
Game Pak is inserted into its Game Pak slot.
NOTE: The External Extension Connector on the front of the
Game Boy Player is not used for single player games.
A Nintendo GameCube Controller can be plugged into any other
Controller Socket to access the Menu Screen (see Pages 7-8).
NOTE: All Controller Sockets are active, so plugging
additional controllers in and pressing the buttons while
someone is already playing can interfere with game play.
MULTIPLAYER GAMES
For multiplayer games, the Game Boy Player can be treated like
another Game Boy system. It can be connected to other Game
Boy systems by using the External Extension Connector (EXT) on
the front of the Game Boy Player with the appropriate cable.
NOTE: This method is only for connecting Game Boy
systems to the Game Boy Player. Do not connect multiple
Game Boy Players together using this method.
Please review the Instruction Booklets included with your Game
Boy system and Game Paks for multiplayer game features and
connection methods. Multiplayer game set-up may require
additional accessories or cables.*
IMPORTANT: Be sure to disconnect systems and cables
when they are not being used.

Accessories sold separately. See your local Nintendo

TROUBLESHOOTING

If you are having problems with the picture or sound, or the
Nintendo GameCube Controller or Game Boy system are not
responding, turn the power OFF and check the following:
• Some games may appear shaky when scrolled across
the TV screen. This is caused by differences in how LCD
and TV screens display images. This is not a defect and
can sometimes be corrected by adjusting the display
quality. (See page 8, the "Display" menu item.)
• Make sure cable connections are correct and secure.
• Make sure Game Pak is correctly and fully inserted into
the Game Pak Slot on the front of the Game Boy Player.
• Check the Game Pak connectors for contamination or
other foreign material.
• If you are using a Game Boy Advance system as a
controller, make sure there is not a Game Pak inserted
into its Game Pak Slot.
• For multiplayer games, review the Instruction Booklet for
the game you are playing for information on multiplayer
features and the number of Game Paks needed, and
what cable connections to use.
• For multiplayer games, check the compatibility of the
components you are using. For example, a Game Boy
Advance Game Pak is not compatible with a Game Boy
Color system.
• If an error message appears on the TV screen, please
review the Troubleshooting Section in the
Nintendo GameCube Instruction Booklet.
Note: When using any Game Boy Advance system as a
controller, a Game Boy Player logo will appear on the
Game Boy Advance screen after you turn the power ON.
If this logo does not appear, turn the power of the
Nintendo GameCube OFF, check the cable connections,
then try turning the power ON again.
If the Game Boy Player still does not operate correctly after trying
the above remedies, please visit the customer service area of our
web site at www.nintendo.com or call 1-800-255-3700.
