Zatch Bell! Electric Arena
Game Boy AdvanceFighting
Zatch Bell! Electric Arena is a Game Boy Advance fighting game developed by Banpresto and published by Bandai, based on the Zatch Bell! anime and manga. Players control a mamodo and partner pair in battles where magical spells are activated through the partner’s spell book. The game presents compact arena fights rather than a traditional side-scrolling beat ’em up, with attacks, movement, guarding, and special techniques forming the core play style. Its small-screen presentation and licensed roster made it recognizable to fans of the series, although contemporary reception was mixed, with critics generally describing it as a simple portable fighter with limited depth and modest content.

| 1 | Real community votes | Games with at least one recorded vote appear before games with no votes. |
| 2 | Rating confidence | More votes rank first, followed by the rating value. |
| 3 | Play activity | Play count breaks rating ties and orders entries with no votes. |
| 4 | Stable tie-break | Game name keeps otherwise equal results deterministic. |
