Looking at my GBA collection, most of the games I have are rather immersive games such as Zelda and RPGs.

If any one could recommend some good pick up and play games I would be grateful. I've Sonic Advance 1&2 but thats about it, and I'm planning on getting Advance Wars.

Anyone know if Shining Soul is any good? I need a GBA game to get with my SP soon, seeing as FF Tactics isn't out for ages, I want an RPG or Platformer that'll be out by June.

To be honest, I want Super metroid to be re-released on GBA - It could be released as Super Metroid Advance and include some extras like the original Metroid and/or Metroid 2 as playable games.

i think its a shame that since metroid fusion is probably the last metroid game on gba (if nintendo follows its pattern) they could have at least made quite long u can beat it in 3 hours

I was looking at Gradius earlier, is it like the SNES version with extras or an entirely new game?

I've played that and I've got to say, it's brilliant. It's the kind of game you never give up, so many mini-games that require very quick reactions, you'll never give up. As soon as it's on SR's database, I'll be pre-ordering it.

I'd say this would be the perfect game for Pick up 'n' Play fans, although those looking to show off the power of their GBA, maybe not the best title.
