Not particularly excited ... I mostly play Gameboy games on my OG 2DS ... but yes, I reckon this is indeed the place for this.

On the question of whether it is cool, it looks pretty cool.
It's not something I am excited about, but I never had a Gameboy, so it's not got the same nostalgia factor for me as it will have for many.

What's the MIDI IN and MIDI cable for? Is this a common thing now? (or back then?)

Well see its got some interesting functions. From a press release:
"Next up on our list of Analogue Pocket accessories is a series of cables that you can use to make some sweet music right from your handheld. Not only content with playing games, this handheld has a built-in Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) called Nanoloop. Think of it as a portable Pro Tools in your pocket.
Analogue have release a series of cables that you can use to connect your pocket music maker up to your Mac or PC to create beats in real time and record your original tracks. You can even hook up a MIDI keyboard or synth to the handheld for extra features."

Blimey, that's very fun.
I do like the GBA cart with the embedded chips!
