Award Reason
It is a game where the OTOGEE, which can be said to be a specialty of Japan, is beautifully presented within the compact GAME BOY Advance. The unique motifs such as the swing of a baseball game or CHANBARA have been realized with graphics which would make anyone smile and are simple as well as give a direct operational feeling. Structure the unique motifs in short-short style, at any age, anytime, anywhere, with anyone else…… It's fun without reservation!
