Decent Game for one or two robot fans! but GBA?

First off, movie wise, I like the original Astroboy better than this new Americanized(?) version, though I must admit, this is a pretty cool movie anyway, and a decent introduction to the characters.
This game seems to be closely modeled after the excelent GBA title by Treasure a few years ago. (Which they don't even mention in the credits?!)
The graphics are shiny and in 3d this time,
but the gamplay is actually simpler! (dumbed down?)
It's still pretty fun, I could see kids having a great time.
The battles get a little repetative, but there IS strategy here.
If you get really into it, try the GBA game ( "omega factor"
and learn about this amazing history of Astro (and his artist Tezuka!) )
