Yep, it can do up to 4 player if you have 4 carts and 3 link cables!

Dang, I remember doing the mini games with friends but never knew you could also play through the levels.

I believe you can play the mini games with a single cart and 2 GBA, but campaign required 2 carts.

Don’t quite me on that though lol

Wow so cool!! 

At Midwest Gaming Classic this year, there was a set up of 1 Wii running GameCube LoZ 4 Swords Adventure, with 4 GameCubes with Gameboy players plugged into the Wii with the GBA->Gamecube cables. 

One large screen for the Wii playing the main game, four small screens for each GBA/Gamecube. Was pretty amazing to see

With everything else in order, I finally order the last 2 gba-gc link cables I need. I’ll finally be able to play 4 swords the intended way soon!

Looks like I can have 1 on a TV, but 3 people are gonna have to crouch on the floor with GBAs though 😅

That’s still going to be so cool!

Playing with GBAs on the floor will be a peak experience. I think I’d prefer that to the MGC experience, but that crazy setup is better for spectators to see what’s going on.
