This page lists the many variants of Digimon Adventure (Game Boy Advance) released by Sintax.
Generally these variants are simply graphical reskins of the original game with the levels reordered, however later entries fix some of the bugs found in earlier ones, and some replace Digimon Adventure 's stage 1 with an entirely new level.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2[]
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 (超級忍者龜2), also known as Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles II on the English version's title screen or 忍者神龟II on the Chinese version's title screen, is a Digimon Adventure variant based on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles) franchise. This variant appears to be the most direct modification of the final version of the GBA Digimon Adventure port, as it starts on the same level as the port and has near identical functionality sound-wise (based on the first level).
Video[]
Trivia[]
- The name used on the Chinese release's cartridge label, 超級忍者龜2, uses a name that was used on Taiwanese copies of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games on the Famicom.
Sonic 3: Fighter Sonic[]
Sonic 3: Fighter Sonic (戰鬥音速小子3), or Fighter Sonic on the English version's title screen, is a Digimon Adventure variant based on the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise. The game was released in English, German, and Chinese. The English version has been dumped as of May 2020, while the remaining versions are undumped.
Overview[]
In Sonic 3: Fighter Sonic, you play as Sonic the Hedgehog through multiple levels. You can jump and move left and right, and your projectile attack is throwing "spin dashes" at the opponent.
Most, if not all of Sonic 3: Fighter Sonic's sprites are ripped from the Sonic Advance series. Notably, Sonic's life icon is his Sonic Advance 2 life icon, but edited to make him have strange-looking closed eyelids, which is actually supposed to be part of an animation for the life icon that doesn't play properly in-game.[1] The graphics for Sonic and all of the objects seem to be taken from Sonic Advance and Sonic Advance 2 but with fewer animation frames. The game has a total of 4 levels; there are rings throughout said levels, but they seem to have no purpose other than increasing the score.

Harry Potter IV[]
Harry Potter IV (哈利波特4), named 哈利波特IV on the Chinese version's title screen, is a Digimon Adventure variant based on the Harry Potter franchise. The game uses an uncommon revision of the Game Boy Advance Digimon Adventure engine, which unlike the original Digimon Adventure GBA port and most of its hacks, is prone to random pauses and glitches in its music when certain in-game events occur.
Video[]
Mario DX[]
Mario DX (瑪莉兄弟DX), also known as Super Mario DX and 超級瑪莉歐DX on the English and Chinese version's title screens respectively, is a Digimon Adventure variant based on the Mario franchise. It appears to use a different revision of the GBA Digimon Adventure engine compared to most of the variants as it notably has major issues with sound, similar to what is present in Harry Potter IV.
English, Chinese, and German versions of Mario DX are known to exist. The English and Chinese versions are dumped.
Differences[]
The game now has the player control Super Mario from Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2. Like in the official Super Mario games, Mario is able to jump on enemies. He also has the ability to shoot fire balls without the need of a Fire Flower (this ability was left over from the original Digimon Adventure GBA port). All enemies present in this game only take one hit from either attack. The orb items from the Digimon Adventure GBA port are replaced with the Super Mario World coins (presumably taken from the Super Mario Advance 2 port), and the icon for the 1-up item is now a drawing of a dragon coin from Super Mario World. All other items appear to be identical to their original Digimon Adventure counterparts.
Peculiarly, the first half of the Digivolution sprites from the Digimon Adventure GBA port are redrawn to replace Agumon with Super Mario and randomly appear when Mario touches an enemy or obtains a strawberry item. The second half of the evolution sprites where Agumon evolves into Greymon do not appear during gameplay, however, being left unused in the ROM and appearing identical to the corresponding sprites from the original game.
All levels in this game except for level 3 are direct copies of levels from Digimon Adventure, with level 3 appearing to use an original layout. The levels, compared to the original SNES Digimon Adventure game, are arranged in this order:
- SNES Digimon Adventure level 1 - Mario DX level 1
- SNES Digimon Adventure level 3 - Mario DX level 2
- SNES Digimon Adventure boss 2 - Mario DX boss 1
- N/A - Mario DX level 3
- SNES Digimon Adventure level 2 - Mario DX level 4
- SNES Digimon Adventure boss 1 - Mario DX boss 2
The graphics in this game are taken from various sources, mostly from Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2:
- The title screen background is lifted directly from Super Mario Advance 2's title screen. In the English and German versions, the logo used on the title screen is also taken directly from Super Mario Advance 2 and modified to read "Super Mario DX", with the trademark from the original logo left intact.
- The "Super Mario" portion of the title screen logo in the Chinese version is replaced with the traditional Chinese text "超級瑪莉歐", but the "DX" from the English and German title screens is left intact.
- In level 1 ("Deep in Dark City"), the first boss fight, and the fourth level ("Riddle of Happy Gorge"), the platform, ground, and background graphics are directly taken from Super Mario Advance 2.
- Various enemies from the original Digimon Adventure GBA port are reskinned into enemies from Super Mario Advance 2.
- The background and title border graphics in the level introduction screen are lifted from the Mario Bros. Classic game included with some of the official Game Boy Advance Mario games. Compared to the source game, the background contains the peculiar edit of Luigi having his hat and shirt the same color as his overalls.
- The first boss (second boss in the SNES Digimon Adventure) is the Four Arms Bear from the Super Famicom game Kishin Douji Zenki - Battle Raiden (鬼神童子 ZENKI 烈闘雷伝), which was originally a regular enemy in that game.
- The second boss (first boss in the SNES Digimon Adventure) is replaced with a different character. What game it was potentially ripped from is currently unknown.
- The ending is a reassembly of a frame from the intro to Super Mario Advance 2 with added "THE END" text. The hot air balloon with Mario in it is a single composited sprite in the ROM, while Peach and Luigi with the cape feather next to him are separate sprites (the hot air balloon in the original game is animated and is a separate sprite from the characters).
- The continue screen uses the border for the overworld screen in Super Mario Advance 2. The numeric font is the same one used in Digimon Adventure.
