The Visteon Dockable Entertainment System (officially referred to as Dockable Entertainment featuring Game Boy Advance) is a portable DVD player created by Visteon in July 2006 for the US market[1] at an MSRP of $1299 USD.[2] The player is notable for containing officially licensed Game Boy Advance hardware, as Visteon partnered with Nintendo to announce the product at CES 2006.[3]
The device was not sold at general retailers, but rather sold at car dealerships in combination of a roof docking head mount for installation, or already equipped in select models of certain vehicles.[4]
