Nintendo Cancelled Accessories & 2nd Generation Cellphone games - Fresh Gear - E3 2002 Grooveraider 2010-10-07 | Ah, the good ole days of Tech TV...Remember "Fresh Gear" ? Several months after the successful launch of the Gameboy Advance; Nintendo had big plans to improve on its previous add-on for the Gameboy Pocket called GameBoy Camera. The Gameboy Advance "Game Eye" would've been the successor to its predecessor. Game Eye would not only allow you to store your own pics you'd take; but also allow you to incorporate your own images into Gamecube / GBA games! At the time "Game Eye" was considered a prototype with plans to release it in Japan. Well sadly Game Eye never came to mass market, at all. The same can be said about the the official Nintendo Gamecube LCD screen. No officialinformation has been given as to why the portable LCD screen never released for Gamecube. But 3rd party accessory developers like Interact jumped on the idea complete with a 90-minute battery back-up docking station to make the Gamecube console fully portable!
