The stereo output of the game boy isn't balanced, so having balanced cables shouldn't matter.
I think the "1/4" cables are of better quality" argument is also bunk; if this is really an issue, you can make your own 1/8" cables to the exact specification you think your perfect game boy pro-sound cable should be.
If you want RCA Phono outputs, I've got a thing that is gonna blow your mind:
I can't believe I posted in this thread.
I have gameboy color with mini XLR connector for audio output it is much better

The only thing I'd beware of is that if you plug something that large directly into the jack, it will have a tendency to get leverage and pry the jack off the printed circuit board, so I suggest putting something like that at the other end of an extension cord.
Agreeing with talk about wire- although the shielding may differ on a thicker wire, I used to run 100 ft. from 1/8 inch to my headphones to let me walk around.

I ghetto rigged a cable that's 1/8 TRS on one side and XLR on the other. It's really useful.
well all the 1/8 inch cables i used were stereo and all the 1/4 inch cables i used were mono
maybe it doesn't have to be that way but i think that's how it always was for me

Pros:

1/4:

Yeah, no, it doesn't have to be that way.

this thread is now about how annoying it is that RCA cables are so prevalent in the audio industry.
You won't see a lot of professional mixers with 1/8" inputs/outputs.
