So, i've started buying up Gamecube games for my wii.. so far gotten Zelda Wind Waker (plus Master Quest) and Mario Sunshine. Today I popped in CEX and noticed Zelda Four Swords, it looked interesting in that it appeared to be old style 2d zelda.. however, it mentions some sort of link capability with a GBA. (I also have a DS)
I've heard that a lot of addons for the GC you can't use with the Wii, does anyone who owns this confirm whether it works ok with the Wii/DS for connectivity?

Damn, can it be played without a GBA? And if so what do you miss out on?

I've got a spare copy of Portal, if anyone wants it message me.
Cool, so you don't miss out on anything without a GBA if you do single player?
All the people I know (locally) aren't into Zelda so I doubt the multiplayer aspect would be used.

Edit: I might add, you can pick up GBAs used for pretty cheap if you look around. Just don't get the Micro, because that is also missing the little port.
regular GBAs are pretty cheap, SP's slightly more expensive, but rechargeable batteries and backlight are so worth it.
Micro's are absolutely wonderful, except worthless to GC connectivity because they took out that port so it can be that small.
I do wish they'd make some patch to allow the DS to control GBA connection GC games on the Wii though. It would really be nice for backwards compatibility in the future when the DS takes over the world.
You'll grow to hate each other if you play this game, and even being nice won't save you from being voted the least helpful in the end.
Also, fuck the boomerang and bottomless pits.
This is half the fun of the game. Taking chalice duty so you can screw everyone over, heheh.
Edit: I should clarify I'm talking about FF: CC, not FSA. FSA is also good times though.
On many occassions this game's multiplayer led to physical violence in my apartment.
It's even more appalling because there's absolutely no logical reason for the competition. You're competing for force gems. Who the fuck wants a force gem? You can't spend them on anything. They're not the shattered remnants of the Triforce. Playing this game with friends really makes you appreciate how the conflict in the middle east can sustain itself for so long.
No one wants to come in last at the end of the stage. So everyone wants to be the one to use keys and hey, you were nearly dead and so close to that pit I couldn't resist dumping you for your sweet, sweet gems.
That's also why we make secret alliances to agree on who we should always vote as the most annoying player.
This is exactly why this game is more sinister than FF:CC, the other four player GBA->GCN game of much betrayal. In that game, you might actually gain something from dicking your friends over. This game? Absolutely nothing.
