* The Game Boy Player is not compatible with the [[Wii]] because it lacks the accessory slots that are present on the bottom of the GameCube. <!--Anyone want to check how the boot disc is handled on the Wii?--> The footprint of the Wii is also substantially different from the GameCube.

* The [[Game Boy micro]] is also incompatible with the Game Boy Player. The equipment required for a link-up is a Game Boy micro Link Cable and a Game Boy micro Converter Connector, along with a Game Boy micro and Game Boy Player. The Converter Connector is built in such a way that the protruding piece of plastic on top prevents it from being inserted into the Game Boy Player all the way.

* Most [[GameShark]] and [[Action Replay]] devices are constructed in a way that makes them difficult or impossible to properly insert into the Game Boy Player.

* {{wk|Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble}}, {{smw|Yoshi's Universal Gravitation|Yoshi Topsy-Turvy}}, and {{smw|WarioWare: Twisted!}} are impractical to play on the Game Boy Player due to their built-in motion sensors. To play these games on the Game Boy Player, a player would have to pick up the GameCube and move it around.

** Similarly, the [[Game Boy Camera]] is difficult to use with the Game Boy Player, as the camera would be in a fixed position. However, previously stored photos may be easily viewed or edited on the Game Boy Player.

* The rumble feature on Game Boy Color games like [[Pokémon Pinball]] and {{wp|Perfect Dark (Game Boy Color)|Perfect Dark}} will not work as intended on the Game Boy Player because the rumbler is in the cartridge itself; however, the gameplay of games such as these is unaffected.

* The cartridges in the {{wp|Boktai}} series can not be played on the Game Boy Player. The shape of the cartridges do not allow it to be properly inserted in the Game Boy Player. This appears to be an intentional, as users usually did get the sensor to detect sunlight inside.
