Default Playing Game Boy Advance Games On Wii?
Ok, I did a search for this but have yet to find a thread, so I apologize if one exists and I missed it.

Does anyone think (or know) how well this would work with the Wii?

One of the reviews on that Amazon page says that this uses software emulation rather than hardware. So basically this could work, there's no technical reason why it can't, but being a 3rd party product Nintendo might prevent it from working on the Wii like they did with Datel's Freeloader and Action Replay. So I don't know.

Also even if it does work, since this uses software emulation the quality won't be as good.

The Advance Game Port is not compatible with the Wii firmware update 3.0.
