I know most people in here plays Xbox or PS2 but there must be some GC owners. I usually go with the Xbox version when it comes to sports. But if the GBA feature is good I might just pick this one.

GC to GBA connectivity in live
Does anybody know if you will be able to connect to the GBA with the Gamecybe version of live. EA usually does this, although the feature in madden is just some extra teams. Anyway I would like to know what features live will have when connecting with the GBA.

Re: GC to GBA connectivity in live
They should though and base it on the old NBA Live 95/96 game engine (tweaked of course!) with updated rosters and some of the features that reflect the major console versions (they would have to cut down some of the features for the GBA obviously). I think there would be a real market for this game, especially seeing that there really isn't any competition on the GBA when it comes to basketball games. Thoughts?Comment

Yea, wait for Playstation Pocket to do this. GBA will be a distant memory, at least in the US.NBA 2K18 ratings for several seasons generated from advanced analytics using the SportsCrunch system:

Re: GC to GBA connectivity in live
I know there isn't NBA Live for the GBA. Although I would like it.
What I meant was that for example in madden you can use the GBA to get advise on plays, and you don't need the GBA game for this. A lot of GC games have GBA link features where you don't need the GBA game.
I was just thinking that EA may have made some cool feature for live.
Taken from IGN: "Earlier this year Nintendo announced a new strategy to build the strength of its sports lineup on GameCube. With the help of publishing giant Electronic Arts, it said that every sports title going forward would have a hook to the Game Boy Advance. The result promised, for GBA owners, was exclusive functionality for features of some kind.
Here at IGN we finally got our final copies of Madden NFL 2004 for both the GameCube and Game Boy Advance and we decided to test the feature out for ourselves. If you don't have Madden for the GBA, you can still use the GBA to keep a scoreboard and get basic advice on plays, but the real sweet stuff is only opened if you own Madden NFL 2004 for the handheld. You get access to exclusive teams and stadiums not offered in the others. "Comment

I loved that Press Release, but the problem with it is that the GC didn't get all the sports games. No NASCAR, and especially no NCAA March Madness. I ended up getting a PS2 to play all the EA games I like. EA Sports Bio loses some of its luster with the GC, b/c you can't get all the goodies for playing all the games that are offered. Also you can't do things such as import your grads from March Madness into Live, which is something lots of peeps want to do. I haven't started my season on NCAA Football yet as I struggle to get used to the PS2 controls. I knew my GC controller, but having all of extra buttons to use on the PS2 Controller hasn't been that easy, as I try do moves with the right analog stick that where possible on the GC, but not on the PS2(Many of those moves use the L2 and R2 on the PS2 instead of the Right Analog).
Personally, I agree with you, I would love and NBA Live on the Advance. As for the Gameboy getting slammed by the new PS Pocket, there have been reports that Nintendo has the successor to the GBA set to be unrolled at the E3 next year.
