Mobile GameCube

The ideal solution for GameCubers on the go.

How many of us have wished we could play our videogame consoles in the backseats of our family's car during that long, boring trip to see a relative? Probably a healthy majority, we think. And while sure enough there has always been the Game Boy, and more recently the Game Boy Advance, these handhelds don't deliver the same caliber of software as we have come to expect from our mighty home consoles. Nor do they feature a backlight, which makes them decidedly difficult to play at points.

But thanks to Interact Accessories there is an alternative, and quite a solid one at that. The third-party hardware manufacture, capitalizing most triumphantly on the portability of GameCube, has developed the Mobile Monitor 5.4 -- a 5.3" backlit LCD display that snaps to the top of Nintendo's next-generation console. The device, simple in design, offers enough features to keep most of us satisfied and delivers a respectable picture quality to boot. Indeed, it is one of the cooler peripheral contributions to arrive in a good while.
