Title: Game Boy Link Cable Scans / Art
Post by: JakeHC on February 25, 2015, 06:41:12 AM
So here's one I haven't seen before, or maybe have once in my youth.

I have a few link cables lying around and today on a Facebook group a guy asked all this to be valued. While all this Pokemon stuff is fantastic, I really was hoping to get a scan of that gameboy colour link cable box, unfortunately he doesn't have a scanner.

I've googled everywhere to no avail. Does anyone have one or can source the art? I would love to make a case up for it to go next to my gameboys.

That's awesome, I'm pretty sure I had one as a kid. They're difficult to track down unfortunately. Wish I kept mine boxed.

I've never published this before :D

This is NOT a scan, but an actual artwork file.
Game Boy Game Link Universal Game Link Cable Set front artwork comes form Nintendo Artwork CD IV (Germany).
Hope it can be put to a good use.

I did a quick google and found it  ;D

There is almost 300 MB of images. Not sure where that could be shared "legally".

Also the only back picture of the box i could find.
At least the backside of the box seems more then simple.

A quick fix to the photo provided by Ceuse. Should make remastering easier.

Plus British English part of the Text:

Make the most of your two player Game Boy games! Just link your Game Boy system with a friend's (see diagram), and experience multiplayer madness. Challenge a friend with any of the link cable compatible games, such as Tetris or Star Wars Racer. Link up two versions of Pokemon, and you can fight frantic duels or trade Pokemon to complete your collection!

Perhaps other natives can help with translation as well.
