What is Gameboy Multicart

What is a Nintendo GameBoy Advance Multicart / MultiGame

GameBoy Advance / GBASP Multicart sometimes also called a MultiGame cartridge is a game cart that from outside looks just the same as any regular GBA card but inside has considerably larger memory that lets us store multiple games on a single cartridge.

Gameboy games on the cartridge are exactly the same as the ones you can buy in single game cartridges - there is no different in gameplay and all the options like saving the game progress and multiplayer linking works exactly the same as in single game pack. Now in addition to GBA games in the free pace left on the cartridge manufactures can include ported classic games from NES, SEGA, Atari, SNES and other consoles. Because the old console games use up less space it is possible to fit a lot of them on one modern GBA cartridge so making games like Nintendo classic Zelda, Mario and Metroid portable.

Multi Cartridges are compatible with Gameboy Advance, GBA SP, Gameboy Micro, Nintendo DS and DS Lite consoles, but note that on the DS console the multiplayer option will not work as they no longer have GBA link port.
