Hi there!

I think the title already says it all, I'm just curious wether any of the Rare games for the GBA resurfaced (Sabre Wulf, Diddy Kong Pilot, Banjo Kazooie) and which GBA titles Namco showed (a GBA native Pac-Man? Pleeeeeeease)

Greetings,
Manuel

Microsoft bought out Rare a while back... you won't be seeing any Rare stuff on the GBA or GC at all. You might want to check out this thread though.

As for Namco, there's that GC/GBA Pac-Man game, but I'm not aware of anything else... sorry :(

Not true. Rare's being owned by Microsoft in no way affects the status of Rare's GBA titles. Both Banjo-Kazooie and Sabrewulf are still being worked on. They just won't be published by Nintendo.

Microsoft has several titles on the GBC, usually distributed by Classified Games. In all liklihood, this will happen to the Rare GBA titles as well.

Read this article from November, following the sale to Microsoft:
