Beyblade - Fighting Tournament (Japan)

Getting Started

When you first boot up the game, you are greeted with a Japanese title screen. Select "Start" (the first option) to enter the main menu. From there, choose a game mode: typically a tournament or single battle. You will then be taken to a customisation screen where you can assemble your Beyblade from different parts (blade, weight disk, base). Each part affects stats like stamina, attack, and defence.

Once your Beyblade is ready, a battle begins. You and your opponent launch your tops into a stadium. The goal is to either knock the opponent's top out of the ring or cause it to stop spinning first. During the match, you can press buttons to apply bursts of speed or change direction, but timing is key. Most of the action is automated after launch, so your pre-battle customisation matters a lot.

Because the menus are entirely in Japanese, you may need to experiment or refer to an online translation guide. The core loop is: customise, battle, win or lose, then unlock new parts or tougher opponents. If you are not familiar with the language, focus on the visual cues - icons and placement remain consistent across many Beyblade titles.
