Some >franchises just don't seem to care. At its highest setting (which could take forever to make a move), I would say that the original Gameboy version played no better than 1750. At a more reasonable time control, it was probably less than 1600. The Gameboy Advance version was done by Ubi Soft programmers in Romania. I honestly do not know if they used the same engine that was in the Gameboy version, or if they used something else. We did send them our PC code and artwork for them to use (as a guide, if nothing else), but I don't know how much, if any, was applicable to their program. jm
