Playing Multiplayer Mode

Coordination is crucial with several people playing at 
once. Here are some key ways that multiplayer mode 
differs from single-player mode:

In multiplayer mode, you must use a GBA in place 
of a Nintendo GameCube Controller. Connect each 
GBA with a Nintendo GameCube Game Boy 
Advance cable. For details, please see "Connecting 
the Nintendo GameCube Game Boy Advance 
Cables" on p. 42.

Up to four players can join a game by connecting a GBA with a 
Nintendo GameCube Game Boy Advance cable. A single player can also 
play multiplayer mode alone.

If players cast spells or unleash focus attacks with the right timing, they can 
create powerful attacks like magic blasts.

Your character's menus and attributes are shown on your GBA 
screen, so only you can see them.

Use the GBA as a Controller

Up to 4 Players

Combine Attacks and 

Create Magic Blasts

Personal Menus

If nothing appears on the GBA screen, the GBA may not be properly connected. 
Please make sure it is connected as described on p. 42.

Multiplayer Mode

Multiplayer mode allows up to four people to play simultaneously.
