About this game
Hachiemon and his friends are having a lovely day on Hachi Isle, when a strange incident occurs.
The friends that came to play with him have suddenly lost their lips! Without lips, eating and talking are difficult for them.

Time for Hachiemon to be a hero and get everyone their lips back! Hachiemon is a 2D platformer starring the titular egg-shaped character with big red angled lips.
He can use his lips in various ways, throwing them like a boomerang or grabbing onto walls and platforms, even slingshotting himself.
Some enemies can be stunned temporarily by giving them a quick smooch with his lips.
He can also roll to attack, but rolling for too long makes him dizzy.
Many enemies, obstacles, and occasional boss fights stand in the way of his quest for the lost lips.
The Hachiemon character was originally created as an advertising mascot for the TV station KTV (Kansai Television or Kantele for short).
In game, Hachiemon sometimes exclaims "Kantele" (カンテーレ), like on the title screen or when pushing the left shoulder button.
Hachiemon comments on some events, like pausing, smooching or getting hurt, with voice clips in which he has a comically deep and expressionless voice.
About Game Boy Advance
Nintendo's Game Boy Advance (2001) offered near-SNES-level graphics in a handheld and became a home for excellent ports as well as original titles across nearly every genre. GBA cartridges are generally durable and plentiful, making it an approachable platform for new collectors, though a few late-release RPGs and limited exclusives have become genuine chase items.
Gamevaro tracks Hachiemon for Game Boy Advance with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Hachiemon to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This GBA release dates back to 2003.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Hachiemon, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Game Boy Advance titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
