I bought myself a GBA yesterday, is there any more amiga stuff available? I've quickly scouted nintendo.com's GBA games list but nothing special popped out.

However, after reading Steve's suggestion about Metroid Fusion I bought it with the console, and holy goat it's an fucken KILLER!

Thanks mate!

Metrod Fusion is awesome. One of the best games on the GBA. Glad to see your enjoying one of my recommendations.

I've not heard of any Amiga GBA conversions for a while although I did see IK+ in my local computer store and it looks totally identical to the Amiga version.

It will be very interesting to see how that one plays.

am not.

btw I should point out that one of my previous posts is incorrect, any USB-based linker will run using Virtual PC 6 and MacOS X (my EZF-Advance works like a charm with this setup). Furthermore if you have a Flash Advance Xtreme Linker then a clever guy is developing native mac drivers for it, check it out here: http://www.deadcoderssociety.tk/

International Karate Plus

Yet another Amiga->GBA conversion has landed in the shops.

The classic Amiga game International Karate Plus (IK+) has finally arrived on the GBA. I only noticed this when I spotted it in my local Game store. There doesn't appear to be many reviews of it on the Internet, let alone on Pocket IGN, but I did manage to track down a review which also includes screenshots of the game in action. I really want to get my hands on this game and see if it's any good.

And miraculously, Ignition has included a button that allows you to embarrassingly drop the pants of random fighters, during the melee... Woohoo!!

Sensible Software released Cannon Fodder for the GBA too!

GBAcentral.net gave it a good 9 out of 10. Looks promising...

Cannon Fodder is a GameBoy Color game. Cannon Fodder has not been ported to the GBA.
