GBA Wireless Adapter w/ Classic NES SMB

[Luigison]

I bought the Classic NES Series: Super Mario Bros. when it first came out.  It had been said somewhere on the internet that the multiplayer Classic NES Series would work with the new GBA wireless adapter.

I bought Pokemon LeafGreen for myself and since it was only $25 at BestBuy I also got FireRed.  I plan to give FireRed as a gift, but keep the Wireless adapter that sells by itself for $20.

I tried using the wireless adapters with my Classic NES Series: Super Mario Bros, but could not get it to work.  I checked the Super Mario Bros. box and found that there was a sticker on the back that said, "Multiplayer games require one Game Pak and a Game Boy Advance Game Link cable (sold separately)."  I found the same sticker on several other NES Classic Series GBA games.

This contradicts what is on the internet.  Nintendo.com even has a webpage that lists the Classic NES Series multiplayer games under "Accessories: New! Game Boy Advance Wireless Adapter".

I used one copy of the SMB game, and two wireless adapters in GBAsp systems.  I know the wireless adapters work because I have used them with FireRed and LeafGreen.

It explains the reason for the stickers as well.

That article happened to be very useful to me, too.
