Super Dodge Ball Advance, released in Japan as Bakunetsu Dodgeball Fighters (爆熱ドッジボールファイターズ , "Bakunetsu" meaning "Burning Heat"), dodge ball game based on the Super Dodge Ball. While based on the original Super Dodge Ball series, the game does not feature the Kunio-kun characters from the original game due to copyrights issues, as developer Million did not obtain the rights to the Kunio-kun characters until the following year. However, the game uses a remixed version of opening and ending songs from Technos Japan Corp's Super Dodge Ball games.
