This title marks the first installment of King of Fighters Series on Nintendo's 32-bit handheld.
It brings a lot of gameplay characteristics based in both KOF Evolution (most of the graphic stuff and principally both "Striker" System and backgrounds, now represented by a static 2D frame instead of the original 3D ones) and KOF 2000 (the musical repertoire).
Besides the traditional game modes (Team Play, Team Battle, Single Play, Single Battle, Endless Survival and Survival Time Attack), this game marks too the debut of a new-exclusive female character named Moe Habana.
With the permanence of 3 on 3 combats (plus Striker Attacks) and the introduction of a new female fighter, the main cast is composed by: Hero Team: Kyo Kusanagi, Benimaru Nikaido, Moe Habana and Shingo Yabuki Fatal Fury Team: Terry Bogard, Andy Bogard, Mai Shiranui and Joe Higashi Art of Fighting Team: Ryo Sakazaki, Robert Garcia, King and Yuri Sakazaki Ikari Team: Leona Heidern, Ralf Jones, Clark Steel and Whip Psycho Soldier Team: Athena Asamiya, Sie Kensou, Bao and Chin Gentsai Korea Team: Kim Kaphwan, Chang Koehan, Choi Bounge and Jhun Hoon
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.

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.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for The King of Fighters EX: Neo Blood, 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.
