This allows you to follow up the kick with 'full crouch' (fc) or 'while standing' (ws) moves without any delay, allowing some slightly strange combos to be done. If you press up/right or up/left for 9 frames before letting go and doing a kick, the character does their air kick on ground level but afterwards the game thinks they are crouching. With a kick, the character does their air kick on ground level, after which their idle animation freezes up. It looks strange and also allows you to evade things that you normally shouldn't be able to. With a punch, the character suddenly appears inside ground for a frame before landing like normal. Starting air attacks is a bit glitchy in this game: - If you press up for 9 frames before letting go and attacking, you get a special effect. Just moving differently or waiting some frames before an attack causes different results. It's pretty easy to manipulate the enemy in this game. You can also do a backwards slide with them, which looks nice. With most characters nothing too interesting happens, but Yoshimitsu and Jin are special cases whose movement speed increases about threefold when this trick is used. He also gets super speed! Tricks and glitches: The most noticeable thing here is the super speed trick, done by interrupting normal movement by for example pressing down every other frame. Third character is Jin, basically the protagonist of the Tekken series, not that the plot matters here at all, a powerful dude with noteworthy juggles. Second character is Xiaoyu (can never get the spelling right), another trickster-type character with many different stances and potential for doing crazy stuff with. You can also give him super speed (more below). He is a cyber ninja I guess, with a very gimmicky (but deadly) movelist and he makes a nice candidate for playing around with. Tekken Advance also has some unique glitches that are talked about some more down below.Ībout character selection: For the first character I picked up Yoshimitsu. This makes a Tag Battle TAS far more versatile and entertaining than just playing normal Arcade-mode using one character. The opponent also has three characters to use in each match. Tag Battle is basically like Arcade, except you get to choose three characters to use and switch between at any time during a match. Tekken Advance stands out because it has Tag Battle-mode in it, something PSX Tekkens don't have. A bit stripped down experience, with only 10 characters and some moves omitted, but it's still a surprisingly good fighter for a handheld console. They've managed to capture the Tekken spirit in this one quite well, with very similar combat physics and all. About the game & game mode: Well, it's a Tekken game, and it's for GBA.

About time usage: It took about a week's worth of research, then about a week's worth of making the actual movie. Then I became interested in Tekken Advance again after Cooljay started posting those Tekken 3 TAS WIPs, so I grabbed my old notes and did some more research of the game, then made this TAS. Then some other game got my interest and time passed. About history: I first played this game a year ago, thinking it might be possible to do a decent TAS of it. The nine stages of winning the King of Iron Fist Tournament.

And it still took what seemed like forever I still know almost exactly what happens in that time, and I wouldn't do it again now despite really loving the games. That's a lot of "my yeah I played Golden Sun several times through, but the first hour of each playthrough was just holding a + b in general, that at least made the text go "automatically" if I remember correctly (or maybe only in the second game). (just because, again, personally, I played these a lot because I had nothing else to play games on than Game Boys).īut hey, it has Drill Dozer, Wario Ware Twisted, Minish Cap (obviously), Advance Wars, Yoshi's Island, FF Tactics, Mario & Luigi, Golden Sun.

Personally, I'd call any best of GBA list incomplete without Boktai, Broken Sword, Rogue Spear, and maybe some of the technically "impressive" or simple "3D" games like Ecks vs Sever 2, Doom 2, Duke Nukem, Kill.Switch, Payback, Driver 2.

Great list I'd say, most of the ones I enjoyed most are in there, and the ones I expected but never played or didn't really enjoy that much also.
