I only ever used it for Pokemon, but I'm sure there were other uses.(lemmy.world)

Wasn’t there a way to link with the IR blasters on the GBCs too? I never tried it but I’ve heard it was possible

I remember trying that over and over, then reverting back to the more reliable link cables.

I’ve only seen that done for the TCG to do trades. Odd how a video game series turned into a franchise with a trading card game got a video game adaption of the trading card game.

Only on games that were designed to use the IR. It was limited to Mystery-Gift-type quick transfers due to the low data speed and the need to keep the systems pointed directly at each other.
