    I just bought a DS lite and am mad for some Zelda action. Looking for Zelda:the minish cap (GBA) but I cant find it anywhere. Can somebody help? Also I think there is another GBA Zelda. Anyone played these?

    You're sure to find it online. The game stock in Dublin shops is awful especially for GBA games so that would be your best bet. The other GBA zelda game is LoZ: A Link to the Past which is identical to the snes game. Both are extraordinary games especially Link to the Past which is imo the best zelda game ever.

    It's a pity DS is compatible with GB software. Links Awakening, Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons are amazing games also but only playable on GBA and GB

    Finding the minish cap on any online retailer is a futile effort - I ended up succumbing to eBay to get a copy which *should* be in transit from some dude in Hong Kong as we speak. Cost 24.99 sterling.

    EDIT - CDWow are advertising it but at £34.75 sterling which is well steep for a GBA game.

    As RetrO said - a link to the past is also out there somewhere and it is simply fantastic. It was fantastic on the snes and it translated beautifully to the handheld.

    If you can get your hands on either of the above you'll be chuffed.

    I picked it up second hand in GameStop, couldnt believe my luck!
    Oh, but have as yet to see a copy of Link To The Past/Four Swords, they seemed to disappear off the shelves all too damn quick!

    Beware the GBA games from China/Japan, may be a dodgy copy, but hey, if it works, it works.

    It was there at GC 2006, so there will be updates on various sites about that. No launch date, but don't expect it this year, and I'd say maybe even Feb 07.
