Even if the new GBA KoF is janky, I still gotta have it on general principle...

And June 7th is nice and close too!

Violence Fight is the best translated game of all time.

Get your principles straight. KOF EX ain't worth a cent.

Import Flame of Recca instead. KOF EX is an embarassment to the series and the GBA.

I feel the same way, but without that 'EX' part.

I've yet to hear a single good thing about KoF EX (yes, from people who've played it and are KoF fans). GGX Advance I'll get just because I'm a GG fan (and it's got new modes! Yea!), but there's no way the moves'll flow as well as they do on the DC. Ah well.

I wonder if anyone'll bother creating a domestic version of the GBA's newest fighting game, Groove Adventure Rave. Kind of a mix between DBZ:Legends lifebar style (I love that thing) with some interesting concepts that differentiate it from typical 2D fighters.

That's because it doesn't have any redeeming qualities. Total rush job.

Doubt it. Konami's probably gonna leave that one in Japan.
