Game Boy

This Joytech cable works like Nintendo's Universal Game Link Cable, connecting the original Game Boy to later models such as the Game Boy Pocket and Game Boy Color and to other hardware.

The advantage over Nintendo's own cable is that it does this natively, without the extra DMG-14 adapter the official cable required. The collection holds several such third-party universal cables from different makers.
