Sonic Advance - Sonic Team

For many Sega fan, it will be strange to see Sega's mascot Sonic The Hedgehog running on a Nintendo console, although Sonic Advance is proving to be better than Mario Advance. Check out the preview HERE

Shining Soul - Camelot
|
Ive been hoping for a Shining sequel or at least a updated conversion of one of the old-ish games, and in a way, my prayers were answerd!
Shining Soul is the latest offering, and plays like a mixture of Phantasy Star and Zelda. You can choose your character class from either warrior, magician, elf and berserker and customize him or her like in Phantasy Star Online. Plus you can have a four player team up, a la PSO. More on this as we get it.

There was rumours about the PC and Dreamcast Sega Smash Pack heading for the GBA, and the great news is, its actually been confirmed! Wahey! The Smash Pack is a collection of old MegaDrive games including Sonic The Hedgehog, Streets Of Rage and Shinobi! At least we get them now, in a funny kind of way.
