!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.

Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.

2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.

I should not need to explain this one.

3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.

Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

I only ever used it for Pokemon, but I'm sure there were other uses. (lemmy.world)

Wasn’t there a way to link with the IR blasters on the GBCs too? I never tried it but I’ve heard it was possible

I remember trying that over and over, then reverting back to the more reliable link cables.

I’ve only seen that done for the TCG to do trades. Odd how a video game series turned into a franchise with a trading card game got a video game adaption of the trading card game.

Only on games that were designed to use the IR. It was limited to Mystery-Gift-type quick transfers due to the low data speed and the need to keep the systems pointed directly at each other.
