They've finally added it to the GC-emulation!

I fondly remember this from the childhood days, and recommend everyone to take a look. It's still quite fun.

Does it have online playing?

[–] Rynelan 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yes, you can host/join an online session with a friend and play like you did with the link cable.

So online TCG sessions are possible. Also trading and even Card Pop! that only worked through the infra red is functional.

How does Card Pop! work on the switch?

[–] Rynelan 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Pretty much the same.

Create a session with a friend both be on the main menu. Then both select card pop and you're done. You'll both get a random card.

With a lot of luck you'll get one of the 2 rare cards that were exclusive to the game.

You can only pop once with a friend until you popped with 15 other people after. After that the first ID is overwritten and your friend will be seen as new.

That's sick, thank you very much! @SharkEatingBreakfast@sh.itjust.works checkt this out!

[–] harald_im_netz@feddit.de 2 points 2 years ago

Couldn't test that so far, would be great.

I've been playing it since it released! Played it on my old Gameboy color back in the day, too, so this has been really fun to relive.

Ronald is still a straight-up bastard, just like I remember.

The "card pop" feature will never really work on the Switch, will it..?
