Back to the present. I received my second Game Boy Advance yesterday. Okay... so, the battery lid is missing, and the screen has a million scratches on it, but those two things didn't actually make it unusable. I'd say that's why it was relatively cheap on Amazon.com, but I think it was still worth it.
However, I still did have one problem with the shit I bought online: The link cable doesn't work. No matter what I do, neither GBA seems to read it, even when it's plugged into both of them and both games are waiting for the other game to come around to trade Pokemon.
I sent an email to the person who sold me the piece-of-shit link cable, asking if I was doing anything wrong, but chances are, I might have to ask to send it back and get a refund instead. I also complained on the Bulbagarden Forum about it, with only one reply so far. On the plus side, I did find a link cable brand, which got nearly a five-star rating averaged from 29 customer reviews. I also called GameStop as well, and as it turns out, they do have some link cables of their own, which they are willing to let me try out before I buy any of them.
