The sad thing is that you can't even blame this on limitations of hardware. GBA was in fact perfectly capable of handling fighting games, and had solid ports of SF2, SFA3 and GGX. These all had better presentation and gameplay than MKA, and were far more feature complete. It feels like Midway and Virtucraft didn't quite grasp what GBA was capable of and specced the game like it's made for a slightly souped up GBC.

Back in high school, I worked at a grocery store and during one of my shifts, found three GBA games on the ground outside, probably dropped by some kid. One of the games was Mortal Kombat Advance and I was super hype for it being a big fan of the franchise. When I got home, I excitedly put the cartridge in and powered it on. I played it less than five minutes before I was so irritated at that broken mess that despite finding the game on the ground, I felt I should still get a refund. But I also got The Pinball of the Dead, so I guess there was a silver lining.

While he didn't say that GB MK4 plays better he responded to a different comment he thinks MKA is worse because MKA doesn't make use of the hardware and is worse than other fighting games on the GBA. MK4 is on a portable console that predates the original arcade game by 3 years. It and almost all GB fighting games are doomed to be bad. (MK4 is not a true GBC game like SF Alpha was, for example)
@krebyrocks77

As someone who owns all the original MK gameboy games, including the MK1/MK2 Double Pack, I can concur that MK4 on the Game Boy Color is the worst. In my opinion, MK1 is medicore. MK2 was awesome when it was released but it's aged terribly since. MK3 is bad, but it's playable. Granted I was never a fan of MK3. Ultimate MK3 and MK Trilogy make MK3 irrelevant. MK4 however oof. There's nothing redeeming about the GBC port. If MKA is on the same level as Criticom according to Matt, then MK4 on the GBC should easily be in the Grandmaster Tier. It's not the worst ever fighting game though. Would probably be in my personal top 5 at least.

I remember the final boss being Mojo Jojo, and he had about three phases. The subway level was the hardest for me since you had to traverse your way back to the entrance before the subway collapsed. That was pretty cool imo. Bad Mojo Jojo was the Blossom version. There was a Bubbles and a Buttercup version of the games. Buttercup had the Gangrene Gang as the final boss, and Bubbles had Fuzzy Lumpkin (I think). Each version had different collectible cards which encouraged players to trade with friends or buy the different versions. Also, you could enter a secret password to fight a Rowdy Ruff Boy.

I mean you can't select akuma by default on the arcade versions of super street fighter 2 turbo or X-Men children of the atom without a code but I could never get those to work lol. If someone would hack those arcade games specifically to include akuma from the get go, I would be happy. 🙂

The GBA received amazing ports of DOOM 1 and 2. This was sad to see MK like this.

Tekken Advance will always be the king of Gameboy fighting games for me. It's so damn good.

I pretty much just posted the same thing but then saw your comment, I completely agree that for a GBA Port it was fantastic. As an adult I now own two copies just so I can mess around with it multiplayer with my friends sometimes. Even on the GBA player it's still fun.

To be fair to the idea of porting UMK3 and titling simply 'Advance', I will remind that Super Mario Advance was a decade old SNES port of Super Mario Bros 2/USA.

This and Doom where some unfortunate ports I had the displeasure of being my first experience with both games. It wouldn't be another 14 years before I actually got to experience them as intended

The comment about the sound just reminds me of how capable the GBA was, but a lot of that capability was not an inherent part of the hardware. Rather, it required a lot of specialized code to perform, which took up space and was overall slower. Still impressive that you could even get the thing to render full 3D.

The fact that the characters do that social distancing thing before a match reminds me of Art of Fighting where the characters do the exact same social distancing thing when or before it's time to fight.

Off topic, I really like your fighting game look on your sona. Curious, if you had to choose what kind of fighting style what would it be? Like Ryu?, like Ken? Etc?

Not only do we get a Pikamee cameo, but we get some respect put on Manfred's name!...I mean, I don't know who he is, but he deserves it.

Fighting games on the Game Boy always felt weird to me. Moves in fighting games require multiple button inputs yet there’s only 4 buttons on the GBA.

I mean, there are a number of fighting games that only use 4 buttons. Everything by SNK, and Tekken, for example.

While definitely imperfect, when the controls were done proper it worked well enough.

I remember playing this and booting it up thinking "It can't be worse than MK1 on Gameboy," and then I started actually playing it and I was like "Yeah, this is worse. A lot worse."
