The '''''Game Boy Player''''' (ゲームボーイプレーヤー, ''Gēmu Bōi Purēyā'') (DOL-017) is a device made by Nintendo for the [[Nintendo GameCube]] which enables [[wikipedia:Game Boy|Game Boy]] (although [[wikipedia:Super Game Boy|Super Game Boy]] enhancements are ignored), [[wikipedia:Game Boy Color|Game Boy Color]], or [[wikipedia:Game Boy Advance|Game Boy Advance]] cartridges to be played on a television. It connects via the high speed parallel port at the bottom of the GameCube and requires use of a boot disc to access the hardware. Unlike devices such as Datel's [[Advance Game Port]], the ''Game Boy Player'' does not use software emulation, but instead uses physical hardware nearly identical to that of a Game Boy Advance.
