GT Advance: Championship Racing

While you?re waiting for Mario Kart Advance, take a spin around the tracks in GT Advance: Championship Racing.

GT Advance is a slick racing game that puts the gas to adrenaline-charged competition. And, except for the sounds, this little cart is feature rich. You can run 40 cars from eight Japanese auto companies, including Honda, Toyota, and Nissan, and more, on 32 tracks.

Moreover, you can drive cars you never see outside of Japan, like the Suzuki WagonR and the Honda CAPA. The car graphics are sweet, and the animation zips along. However, finicky lighting will cause the Game Boy Advance screen to blank out the gameplay visuals. At least the tight controls pull you through the dark. Use them to tone down the growling engine noise, too.

Despite the dents, GT Advance is a solid early contender in the handheld racing championship?just be sure to drive with the lights on.
