Properly fitting styluses for New 2DS XL
Decent quality 3rd party styluses for New 2DS XL. It seems like a relatively hard model to find styluses for. They fit properly in the slot in the system and click securely into the slot so they won't fall out. I forget if the OEM ones have this but there's a convenient little notch to help you pull it out easily.
My only real gripe is that they're stupidly short compared with other DS models, especially "XL" ones. But that's a flaw with the 2DS XL design and is Nintendo's fault. This product just copied the original.
I ordered these from Picodeals and they came packed inside a case made to hold a single Gameboy / GBC cartridge. Aside from protecting the styluses from post office equipment, this is a neat little bonus since I still have my old Gameboy games.

Great for some games - make SURE you know what it's for
This is the official Nintendo cable for connecting a GameBoy Advance to a GameCube (or compatible Wii running a GameCube game). You have to keep in mind that what you can do with it will depend on your game library for both systems. This cable ***DOES NOT DISPLAY GBA GAMES ON YOUR TV***. I mention this because some people seem to assume it will and then get disappointed when it doesn't. If that's what you want to do, look for a GameBoy Player.
Only a relatively few games make use of this cable, and on many of those it doesn't add a lot to the game. It might unlock some exclusive content or an extra level when you connect a GBA, possibly with a certain game. Or it might let you use e-Reader cards, like in Animal Crossing. If used with a GameBoy Player, it lets you use a GBA as the controller to play the cartridge that's in the GB Player.
The real attraction though is Pokemon Colosseum and XD in my opinion. You can use this to trade your purified Pokemon out of the story mode and into a GameBoy Advance Pokemon game -- from which you can shift them up step by step to the 3DS games. You can also use 1-4 of these cables to battle Pokemon from GBA games in 3D, either taking on the 100-battle challenge alone, or having a free battle with 1 or 3 friends.
Definitely make sure to get an original OEM Nintendo cable, or at least an old used third party cable from a reputable brand like MadCatz, Nyko, etc. The official ones have nice plastic latches on the GBA end to prevent the cable from coming loose mid-game. Third party ones sometimes have metal latches which work but may scratch a GBA SP; or no latches at all. The ones to absolutely avoid are the new ones from brands you probably haven't heard of -- these often do not work at all, or always fail at a specific point.

Does exactly what I needed
Good device. The box itself feels sturdily built and has a tricolor status LED. A standard USB B connector plugs into one end, and the provided breakout board plugs into the other. Then one of the provided cables plugs into that, to go to the board you're working on. It comes with a number of different cables you can use depending on what you're connecting it to. If it isn't one of the common pinouts they give you a cable for, there's a cable with loose wires and single pin connectors you can plug into whatever pins you have.
Other reviews have mentioned that the software doesn't work on 64-bit Windows 10, which is a downside. If this is what you have, you should try VirtualBox and install either Windows 7 or Ubuntu inside a virtual machine. It's not as nice as proper native support but iMPACT can be installed on either of those, and works perfectly fine with VirtualBox's USB device forwarding.
