A reviewer said "it's not even out yet". Maybe not in America, but I just got back from Singapore (my home country) and played the game there in the beginning of January. It is out, and it is a great game. The graphics are really good even on the small screen, and though having only two regular buttons is limited, it can be overlooked. Come on, this is an affordable portable system! Tekken is a must have if you like this style of game (Tekken series, Virtua Fighter series, etc). The only reason I didn't buy it is that I spent all my money on Golden Sun, Tony Hawk 2, and Street Fighter before I saw it!

TEKKEN for ADVANCE!!

Don't let some bad review trick you.I've known Tekken since it first came out on playstation.I have all of the Tekken games except Tekken Tag because I don't own a PS2.I have Gamecube,Genisus,PSOne,Gameboy Color,and GBA. The graphics on this game are almost as good as Tekken1 for playstation. How do I know?Because I got it for my birthday about 4 months ago.I beat it with Hworang,he rules,I get perfects almost every time,I never die with him either.Tekken Advance is just like Tekken3 but handheld and less characters.Another thing you can use the GBA cable link and fight a friend,you can invite a bunch of friends over and have a Tekken Tournament!

I KNOW This Game is Going to Rock!!!

This game is going to be a hit on the GBA system I just know it. I love the Tekken series and I'm going to be one of the first ones to buy it. I know, from a little research, that you can only play nine charicters, plus one little "suprise", from Tekken 3. If you love the Tekken series as much as I do, then I would highly advise you tou pre-order this, "Butt-Kicking-To-Go" handheld game.

looks cool

This game has very exciting gameplay, awesome graphics, and a nice selection of characters. If you can only have one fighting game this year, make it this. It may only have 10 characters, 1 of which you must win by finishing the game with all 9 fighters, but I consider it much better than Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, and Virtual Fighter. I'm glad they finally decided to release it on GBA. I won't lie to you, it's not the best game to hit GBA, but It is definetely in my top 10. I may be only 12, but I think I'm old enough to recognize one for ages!

EXCELLENT

this game is soooooo good. The moves are awesome and there are tons of them!!! I counted about 60 MOVES PER CHARACTER on the command list. The levels and music are good too.

This is very portable. It's easy to do the 10-hit combos on each character.

Tekken 3 for Game Boy, see?

This game is great! No, it's stupendous. It may have been stripped down a bit, so it would fit on the Game Boy, but it is fun and full of cool action and bad-@$$ fighters nonetheless. It has awesome and slick graphics, cool sounds and music, and of course some nifty and wicked controls such as multiple punch, high power kick, and even a way to pound on your opponent and deal a ton of damage. Also, all of the very best characters are in this game. Here's how I rank all of them, from best to worst. Or favorite to least. Same thing.

1. King-Always been my favorite character, still is to this day. His punches and kicks are devastating, and he is part jaguar.

2. Yoshimitsu-This is a robot and a ninja put together. He wields a glowing sword and has many punishing moves. He's a must have.

3. Nina-She's one of the best villainesses of all time. Very well trained in the martial arts and has lots of tricks up her sleeve.

4. Jin-Where to begin? He is a tough, no nonsense karate fighter, and is utterly intrepid and never gives up. Also is cool looking.

5. Paul-Cool getup, cool hair style, cool moves. And he is a very strong man. This guy is a challenge to nearly any Tekken player.

6. Gun Jack-He's a hero, but he's an engine of destruction. He is the strongest fighter and real tough. Not too fast, but powerful.

7. Heihachi-He's a cool and dastardly villain, and he's trained in the best karate. He's also the final boss in this very game.

8. Hoawrang-This is a really good fighter. He has awesome powers and cool combos and is very challenging. Nice look to him, too!

9. Forest Law-I like Marshall Law better, but this guy's still pretty good. I mean, he's got a way of getting around fights.

10. Xiaoyu-I still think she's pretty good. Unfortunately, none of the handful of Tekken fighters I like less than her are in this game, so she has to be at the bottom. But at least it goes no lower than one that I like pretty good, instead of awful/bad.

All in all, this is a terrific game and I highly recommend it to anyone who likes Tekken, Mortal Kombat, or any other fight game. Trust me-it is well worth your time, effort, and of course money.

Tekken Advance...

I never thought fighting games on the Gameboy Advance would amount to much, to be honest. I figured we'd see a whole slew of 2-D fighters, like Street Fighter-Guilty Gear and the like, swamp the system as it's geared toward 2-D gameplay because of it's processing limitations. When I saw Tekken Advance in action, I was simply amazed. I don't know how Namco managed to do it but they produced a game that looks and plays like Tekken and I love it. Sure, the control scheme is a bit different and the move sets have been scaled down a bit but this game is, definitely, Tekken. This game, for better or worse, is a scaled down version of Tekken 3. While notables like Eddy and Lei are absent, the rest of the cast is there. In this version, Heihachi serves as the game's boss. Aside from the arcade mode, the game also features a link-cable versus, time attack, survival, tag battle, versus tag battle, and practice mode.

My only gripes with the game is that there is only one unlockable character in the game and, once you finish the game, there's no ending story, pictures or nothing. Credits roll, the end.

Other than that, Tekken Advance is a great fighting game worthy of any Gameboy Advance owners' hard-earned buck. If you like Tekken, you're going to like this one. I know I did.
