	~~TBD~~		The game was met to generally mixed reception.

			{{Quotation\|Without a doubt, the jaw-dropping graphics are what ultimately sets the game apart from its peers. Rarely do GBA games push the hardware this much, even those published by Nintendo. The sharp 2.5D backgrounds put the system's full 32,000-color palette to use, the character sprites are large and fluidly animated, and the bosses are downright huge.\|Dragon Ball GT: Transformation Review\|Frank Povo\|GameSpot}}
