You used this for mystery gift once then forgot it existed

ok

>once
Every week when I gathered with my friends
Had an N64 in my room in pokemon gold. Good times.

I never used it. The only game that I had that I knew used the IR port was Pokemon Pinball and that was only used for trading high scores.

Did it have any other function than that?

I never used it.
I either used the link cable, only a few times, or much more likely loaded my Pokemon cart into Stadium.

>>11820347 (OP)
there was a rumor in my area that you didn't need a link cable to trade pokemon, and everyone would sit there trying to get it to work even though it in fact does not work at all for that purpose

>>11820547
I remember trying that. Two GBs with the sensors touching, seeing if we could trade.

>>11820347 (OP)
WRONG! I used it all the time because I wanted as many plushies for my room in Pokemon Gold.

what is gay freak's excuse for this?

Nintendo sole that idea from Hudson's GB Kiss Link btw. Except GB Kiss Link was better because you could also connect to a computer and get DLC (actual DLC, but free) for your Game Boy games.

I used it for the Bomberman Max game.

I still use Mary kate and Ashley for my tv remote, tyvm. My wife fucking hates it

Nintendo stole a standard form of data transfer from the 1980s?

it's sad that it's not actually "sending" the gift over. it's just displaying a code that tells your cart to give you the gift.

You could use it to trade cards in harry potter and the chamber of secrets

The connection is too unstable.
