More specifically any good games with similarities to games like, The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages, or The Minish Cap, or Pokemon? With that bird's eye view perspective? I've been having an itch to play a game like this lately, and haven't found anything to cease my crave.

Edit:
I'd prefer the game to be on the XBLA but any game will do.

Well, the action-adventure genre is extremely broad, but if you're asking for something Zelda/RPG-like specifically...

Castle Crashers, Arkadian Warriors and Gauntlet are probably as close as you can get.

@Axersia: I do have Castle Crashers, but I'm asking more specifically for the bird's eye view camera angle thing, like in the Game Boy Zelda's, Arkadian Warriors and Gauntlet do seem to fit though, so I will read about them, thanks.

@Akeldama: Hey, I love both of them, just ages came to mind first.

@JJOR64: Not really what I'm looking for, what specifically I'm looking for is that top down perspective you get in games like Seasons, and Pokemon. I've looked and looked, and alas, I don't there are too many. I think Axersia nailed all of them.

I really wish this genre would be revitalized...

Castle Crashers might be what your looking for. If you haven't played Braid, I'd check that out.
