multi-player GBA games

OK this is what I understand. I have read through the instructions on my GBA and I understand that some multi player games only need one player to have the game and the others can just download the game into there memory while other games all the players have to have a copy of the game. This is my question I have a game "wild Thornberry’s movie" and I have read all through the instruction for the game but it doesn’t say weather or not all player need a copy or just one. I have it linked with a GBA and a GBA SP and I am using the GBA link cable and I only have one copy of the game and can’t get the other player to come up. I am guessing this means I need 2 copies of the game right. Can any one tell me where I can find info on what games only need one copy to play multi? Thanks

That not what the instruction that came with the GBA SP said. It said some games only need one copy and I was just wondering which games these are and where I might find a list of them :P

Almost all games will need another cartridge of a particular game to be able to be played on 2 different systems.

Thank you monkeyshare for that list. And yes I did need to have 2 copies of the game mentioned to play multi. My Flash2advanve showed up a few days ago and I was able to back up the original and flash it to the new cart and I proved 2 things to myself...yes I need 2 copies of this game and ...yes the flash2advance carts work on multi player games. Thanks to all who answered.

yerwelcome!

I think the better features in multiplayer require two carts a lot of the time.

In Mario Kart, I believe single cart only provides for you and the other player ; no COMs, just two players on the track (kinda boring). And I think you have to be the same character...
