!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

I remember it for Pokemon, but also for those Zelda games that were a pair - Oracle of Ages/Seasons? But I don't think it let you do much, just continue a game save when you finished one of the two games.
Four Swords came with Link to the Past too. Never played it, but it's exclusively multiplayer, as far as I know
Four Swords is the most competitive co-op game I have ever played. It's brutally fun, but you're going to want to punch your friends in the throat after about 30 minutes.

This comic is an accurate description of the experience.
The Oracle games didn't actually use the link cable, they had a password system.
It had both! You could use either a link cable or a password to continue your game in the opposite title, and to bring over the rings you had from the original save. At the jeweler's shop, the red snake was for password transfers and the blue snake was for link cable transfers!
Oh thank you! I knew the password existed because I was able to do it with only one system, I did not remember having the other option!
