One Piece Advance

Anyone tried this game (not sure what the orginal name is, just known as "Shonen Jump's One Piece" here.

I actually haven't had that much fun on a side scrolling game in a while^^ Anyone else played it and possibly enjoyed it too?

Yes, and it was suprisingly good.

I was a little disappointed that you can't play everyone (though I heard there may be an unlockable way to do so) and that several of the villains weren't really bosses (like Cabaji and the Nyaban Bros., who just jump in for a moment, attack, then run).

They also left alot in that surprised me, like Buggy and Krieg actually saying "die" (Krieg says "This will be your grave").

The bosses battles were awesome, especially Krieg's and Arlong's (and Smoker has cool battle music!).

And did anyone else enjoy overusing Gum Gum Rocket? XD

I more used Zoro when I could.

Heh I did find one thing amusing though: I totally forgot they changed Smoker's name to "Chaser" and not sure if they edited out his cigars on the show (assuming they did though) but after you beat him it shows a pic of him with his trademark cigars in his mouth.

I assuming those semi-villans were just obstacles, can they can do quite a bit of damage to you if you don't kill them right away :/ Luckily for me, roms are great ^^ (Yeah, I like the option of saving as often as possible^^) Still some bosses likeArlong and stuff took so... well, long! Some were definately harder than others though.

Yes, ROM = yay!

And yeah, I noticed that about "Chaser" (who actually "chases" you at the end! XD ).

And Buggy was evil... >_<

The only thing that turned me off was that I thought Luffy was the only playable character.

Well, I was wrong.

Was this game made in Japan already?

I tried looking it up, but couldn't really find anything. I'm assumign it is though, with the graphics and all looking like somethign that they would've first made there and then brought here (just like the Naruto side-scrolling game).
