Four classic episodes are on the way to a cartridge near you.

Nintendo News: Nintendo Expands the Library for Game Boy Advance Video

Every good television show gets a spin-off or sequel. On Sept. 27,

Game Boy(R) Advance Video follows suit with two exciting new video

paks featuring four "classic" episodes of the wildly popular

Pokemon(R) franchise. One video pak features the cartoon episodes

"Pokemon – I Choose You!" and "Here Comes the Squirtle Squad," while

the other contains "Beach Blank-out Blastoise" and "Go West Young

Meowth." Each video pak sells at an MSRP of $19.99.

Game Boy Advance Video debuted in June, and already has sold more

than one million units through August. By the holidays, more than 20

different paks will be available, each with up to 45 minutes of video,

or four animated episodes. The initial video offerings included

Pokemon episodes, as well as other favorites from Majesco like

SpongeBob SquarePants(TM), The Fairly OddParents(TM), Codename: Kids

Next Door(TM) and Cartoon Network(TM) Collection.

Game Boy Advance Video lets users play video paks of their

favorite cartoon episodes right on their Game Boy(R) Advance SP units,

which now sell for a new low MSRP of $79.99. There's no need to buy

any additional hardware. So for less than $20, users can convert their

video game units into mini view screens, using the buttons to pause or

fast-forward the action, just like a DVD player, anytime, anywhere.

Wasn't "Go West Young Meowth" the one where meowth learns to talk? Because that was one of my favorites.

Yep. Actually, it's the only standout episode in this bunch.

Didn't we hope these announcements would stop with the first few carts actually shipping? Majesco apparently loves attention.

So when are Nintendo going to stop being garbage faces and release GBA cartoon cartridges worthwhile? (Super Mario Super Show for lol, plz)

KDR_11kSeptember 25, 2004

The same moment they start making GBA videos at all. Those things are the work of Majesco and I don't think they're going to let anyone else cut into their profits. Besides, are those things actually on the shelves at retailers?
