GBA wiress adapter - is it worth $6.00?

[c0ldb33r]

I went to a local gameshop and picked up a GBA-GC adapter ($4.00 loose).

They also had a GBA wireless adapter (for $6.00 Cdn - about $5.36 USD). It's just loose - no box or manual. I've always thought this adapter was really cool.

So, this is my situation:
I have 4 GBAs - GBA, GBA SP, GB Micro and GB Player (not including the DS)
I've got 2 GBA-GC cables
I've got one GBA-GBA cable
I rarely play any multiplayer GBA games (probably not at all in the last year)
So, those are the circumstances. I'm torn whether I should get the wireless adapter. I'm pretty certain I'd never use it - I'd only be getting it just to have it. I'd never pay full price for one of these, and this is the first I've seen used (off the internet).

If I do get it, do all GBA games support it? The only games I've played multiplayer were GBA Super Mario (that horrible mario bros game) and bomberman tournament (which is awesome - me and my wife play the one cart version off and on)

Is there anyway you can use this to connect to the GC? For instance could I use this in conjunction with a wavebird receiver to connect from GC to GBA wirelessly?

So, in the end the question is this: would you get a GBA wireless adapter for $6.00 Cdn?

Based on my "anything you can possibly like or use is worth $6 philosophy", I'm going to have to say yes.

I believe it only works with a poke'mon game. correct me if i'm wrong.

If memory serves me, a good chunk of the Classic NES line use the adaptor, despite no indication on the packaging. They even allow you to play multiplayer with only one cart.

Hey you're right! [Link to IGN article (with pics/video) (http://gameboy.ign.com/articles/522/522345p1.html)]

Awesome, that's a pretty cool feature - but still useless with only one of them.

There were a few other games that supported the adapter as well (Digimon Racing I think was one). I have two... and have never ever used it. To me I should have saved the $4 I spent on each of them. There is a 3rd party one (came in green packaging) however that is supposed to work with NON Wireless adapter compatible games, but I've never seen a review or heard about how well they work.
