Fans of hurtling across dozens of varied tracks should find joy in this hardcore knee-down thrillride against seven computer opponents or three other human players.

A great racing game that is a ton of fun. You can link up 4 GBA's and race against your buddies providing a great multiplayer experience.

It delivers a portable rush of addictive high-speed action. And you can't really ask for more than that.

Gamers' Temple
The game does a good job of ramping up the difficulty in all modes of play. The tracks get progressively more difficult to navigate, and the AI competition becomes tougher.

The controls are tight, the sense of speed is exhilarating, there are plenty of unlockables and the game has lots of depth to it.

IGN
The game isn't realistic by any means; the designers set out to create an amazingly fast, smooth, and satisfying racing experience on the handheld, and the team definitely succeeded in the task.

With long draw distances, fierce competition and frenetic speeds, there's really not much more I could ask for from Moto Racer Advance.

The graphics for Moto Racer: Advance are top notch and make it truly a great game to play on the GameBoy. The gameplay is just as much fun as any racing game I have ever played.
