It\'s looking pretty good so far.  Here is some info about it from Tekken Zaibatsu:
Quote
A demo of Tekken for the GameBoy Advanced is expected to be on display at Nintendo\'s Space World show later this month.

According to reports, Tekken GBA will be a 2D port of the arcade and PlayStation Tekken 3, but thanks to the GBA\'s pseudo-3D capabilities, the game camera will be able to zoom in and out of the action, as well as offer a rotating ring similar to Midway\'s GBA port of Ready 2 Rumble Round 2. The Tekken GBA engine will contain rendered conversions of several of Tekken\'s original polygonal characters. The current roster of fighters include Jin Kazama, Paul Phoenix, Forest Law, Hwoarang, Gun Jack, King, Ling Xiaoyu, Nina Williams, and Yoshimitsu. Expect some hidden characters to make the list as well.

Tekken\'s four button punch/kick configuration has been mapped to the A, B, L and R buttons of the Game Boy Advance. Because of the near instant access of the cartridge medium, the Tag aspect of Tekken Tag Tournament may make it into the Game Boy Advance version as well...and the Game Boy Advance version may allow for three characters per team.


Sounds pretty cool for a hand held.  I still think the GBA would have been tons better if it had more than 2 face buttons, but oh well.

And I can\'t post this in the Console Debating forum without having a debate, so, um...Tekken Tag Tournament on the PS2 looks better. :D;)

OMFG !!!:eek:
Those characters look really good. That might be the
same technique Rare used with Killer Instinct on Snes.
GBA = handheld PS2 ? :laughing:

It won\'t compare to Super Smash Brothers Advanced.

Do you mean sales wise, or GAMEPLAY wise. ;)  I agree SSBA will sell more just because it\'s a Nintendo console and most Nintendo lovers love Super Smash Brothers.  But to say it won\'t compare gameplay wise is entirely your oppinion -- an oppinion that I don\'t agree with.

Looks decent. I\'ll try it before I buy it, just because I\'m not a huge fan of handlheld fighters.

I\'m sick of smash bros that has to be one of the stupidest, kiddest, and most overrated games ever.  Tekken eats that crap for breakfast.  :thepimp:

N-E-Ways. It looks a lot better than I thought it would. I, like Aaron, will try it before I buy it.
