Nah. Not possible. Unless you have a colour-game in both of the
gameboys, and the games support linking. What game are you thinking of?

Yes, it is. First, you need the appropriate link cable, which is a regular
Game Boy cable with the smaller ends(as opposed to the original Game Boy's
larger link port), and TWO copies of the Game Boy title that supports
2-player mode. You will not be able to use a Game Boy Advance title during
this procedure. That's it. The lower platform determines the rules: Game
Boy Color, so you must follow Game Boy(not GBA) 2-player linking rules and
requirements.

It always baffled me that, with all the effort put into making the various
GB systems constantly backwards-compatible, they couldn't work something out
for the GBA link.
