If you enjoy the Tokyo Extreme Racer series for the PS2 and you happen to have a GBA, then this title is an "ok" purchase. It's a very toned-down version of what's on the PS2. The graphics aren't very good either and are very grainy looking.
Worse than my expectations

Tokyo Extreme Racer Advance for GBA is not very good. I was stunned by the fact that there was only one game mode. The graphics are dull. This review will explain the details.
How can a game be considered a satisfactory game if there is only one challenge? The case in this game was that the only challenge was to beat your opponents to the finish line. To win the game, you have to do that over and over for 128 times. There are no alternative racing modes or police chases. As far as fun is concerned, the game does not pass my examination.
The graphics of this game must have been designed by the same people who directed the gameplay. The graphics have the same issue, which means that almost all the buildings you pass look almost exactly the same. You are racing at night, and the sky is no more than a black color. There are no clouds in the sky, and rain is never seen. The game does not pass my examination as for graphics either.
Now, the overall design of the game is okay. The tracks do have some difficult twists, and you can upgrade your cars to increase their performance. The music, however, is much like the graphics and gameplay. You hear the musical loops over and over again, and, on top of every thing else, it is rather muffled.
I do not recommend buying Tokyo Extreme Racer Advance. In my opinion, games can not be fun unless they have variety. The graphics and gameplay of this game does not have that. Below are my scores for this game.
Graphics: D+
Duration of Entertainment: D-
Sound effects: C
Music: D-
Overall: D+
