This, of course, the Game Link cable, which allows you to link two Game Boy units to play games head-to-head, as well as share data. There are two models of Game Link; the original has connectors at both ends, to match the type of interface on the original Game Boy, and the newer model, which has a connector to fit the interface on the Pocket and Color Game Boys, as well as the Super Game Boy 2. Shown above is a set of cable which is sold separately from the Game Boy units. What is interesting about this set, is that it comes with an adaptor, tied onto one end of the cable, so it can be used with an original Game Boy unit (guess if you own 2 original Game Boy units, you have to buy another set of cables just for the adaptor). I don't think Game Link cables
