Shit. Fuckiin kids these days with their modern technology. This was awesome back then, and it was the first one to go to a portable console. I'd rather play this one over the psp version which I still do.
@MatthewCarlo I could never find an emulator that didn't do something weird with the shadows. If you messed around with the frameskip, you could actually get the shadows to go away, LOL. I actually owned this game back then and the real game doesn't do this.
@MatthewCarlo They faked transparency on the shadows by alternating them every frame. It plays at 60fps but YouTube videos play at ~30fps, so rather than seeing them flicker, we see one steady while the other never appears.
i had no idea the GBA had a tekken game released. watching this gives me hope that streetfighter v tekken or another tekken game will come out for the 3DS.
This really does showcase the GBA as a powerful little console. I'm really sorry that it continues to be overlooked. In retrospective, the Gameboy Advance was much more at that time than the Nintendo 3DS is today, technology-wise.
ONE OF MY FAVORITE GAMES EVER, I GREW UP PLAYING THIS! I like these fighter games more when the fighters look young and attractive... not old and scarred.
I REMEMBER I HAD A GBA AS A LITTLE KID ( now have a 3DS ) AND THIS GAME WAS THE SHIT! YOU PEOPLE ARE PROBOBLY ONLY LOOKING AT THE GAME AND NEVER PLAYED IT DURING IT'S TIME. THIS GAME WAS AMAZING! If 3DS supported GBA, I'd buy it again!
@jasano1234 But if Namco can make a tekken 7,then it probably hit first on PS3 and Xbox 360 and then later they could port Tekken 7 on the 3DS,like this game.
i have this game, only tekken game i have played... but it is still fun and was the funnest game i had. i played it almost all the time. it really is as fun as it looks.
damn i had this game. I HAD.... I think I lost it or gave it my brother. I would NEVER sell this game. this game is sooo good funny and... Its fun playing in TeamBattle and using Haihaichi.
Good old times. i need one Mortal Kombat Virtua Fighter and Tekken on the DS too ::)
this version is just amezing, taking full advantage of node7 to simmulate incredible 3d effects.
this game helped the sale of the gba system,manny peoples believed that the gba was powerfull as psx,namco dit a good job to leave sony,helping nintendo to revange sony.
The only Tekken game on a Nintendo system, let alone on the GBA. The game was done by Eighting (Bloody Roar, Kururin, and Naruto: Clash of Ninja), who later developed the PSP version of Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection.
I once went to the site called imdb (Internet Movie Database) and found out there will be a new Tekken movie, what really shocked me though, is that I heard it will be rated R. What the heck?!!
The games of Hitman were rated m. I know, it sucks how they make a movie of a game and give them a dumb mpaa rating. I mean take Max Payne for example, they make all games rated m but the movie pg-13. It also sucks they make bad movie adaptions of some games. The mpaa for tekken better be the only thing bad about the movie. I hope they don't screw up metal gear either. Can you imagine metal gear being rate pg-13?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Wow.. I never thought that tekken advance would looked like this one.. its really crappy.. but atleast gameboy has one.. its like tekken in street fighter grasphics hehehe
If I play this on a DS will it be really small? Like Street Fighter Alpha 3? I bought that, but you can hardly see the characters! Not like Mortal Kombat DS, that was spot on.
Hmmm looks alright i tried to buy it not long ago but my copy was a fake so it was a waste of £2 but from what i see there is no replays and thats pretty much the whole reason i like the tekken games a nice straight forward beat em up with a replay to show how you finished them off. I dont know about any of you but that satisfys me :-D
