===Features===
The console is a handheld that closely resembles the original Game Boy Advance in shape. Despite this, the layout of the controls is practically identical to that of the GameCube controller. The specs of the hardware are very similar to that of the Nintendo Switch, being able to handle high quality graphics on a small screen with roughly the same battery life.
The menu screen is radically different from that of the GameCube's, instead closely resembling the 3DS's menu. From this menu, players can jump right into one of the system's games, or open apps. By connecting to the Nintendo EShop, all the apps available for the Nintendo Switch and the Nintendo 3DS can be downloaded, in addition to Virtual Console titles and downloadable games.
One big addition is the focus on online multiplayer. The GCN GO can connect to the internet for online play, with this feature being based off of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Nintendo 3DS's execution of the mode. Online play is available for every multiplayer game in the line-up.
The other main addition is the touch screen and the stylus it comes with. This is used for navigating the menu screen, but by tapping on the screen during gameplay, the console can be put into sleep mode to save battery or a save state can be created. Players can access any save state they've made previously from this screen. The touch screen can also be used in some EShop games, but does not interfere with the main titles.
Like the Nintendo Switch, the GCN GO comes with a small black box that resembles the original GameCube. By sliding the console into the box, players can play their games on monitors. This box also includes four controller jacks for multiplayer games. Also included with the console is a GameCube controller for home play, with more available for purchase at electronics stores.
