The '''Game Boy Player''' was not an actual system. Instead, it was an add-on accessory for the [[Nintendo GameCube]] which allowed players to play Game Boy Advance games on their televisions, much like the [[Super Game Boy]]. A few games had a rumble feature which took effect only when they were played with a standard GameCube controller. Later on though, [[Nintendo]] added a smaller version of one to the front of the [[Nintendo DS]].

Like the Game Boy Player, the '''Gamester''' is not an actual system. It is an add-on accessory, exclusive to the Game Boy Advance SP. This accessory allows the player to play three games without shutting off the system and changing the cartridge. The cartridge slot for the Game Boy Advance SP slides into another slot on the Gamester. Then, the player can put three cartridges in three different spots. On each slot for each game, there is a number next to it. There is a switch that has the numbers "1", "2", and "3". When the player slides the switch to the number and turns the on switch on, they will play the given game. For example, if the switch is on the first number, then the player will play the game in the first slot. To switch games, the player must turn the on switch off and change the numbered switch.
