There's def a lot of other great games, too. Those are just a few that come to mind. Pretty sure I remember the Crash and Spyro GBA games being pretty cool, too.

Good additions. I love Kirby and Dragon Ball Adventure

Castlevania Aria of Sorrow and Mother 3 for me. Not just my two favorite GBA games, but two of my favorite games period.

Also a great time to mention how fkn great the GBA core on MiSTer is

The GBA was a great system; my only complaint is they didn’t include X and Y buttons. Some games could have benefited from two more face buttons.

I haven’t seen the Advance Wars series brought up yet. Great strategy game.

Not mentioned here yet:

Metroid Fusion and Metroid Zero Mission

Mega Man Zero series

The Legend of Zelda The Minish Cap

Fire Emblem The Sacred Stones

Seriously? No Mother 3? No F-Zero games with three to choose from? No Boktai? And Summon Night Swordcraft Story didn’t make it either.

Plus, three Sonic Advance games, multiple Metroid and Zelda titles, but couldn’t spare a slot for Mega Man Battle Network anywhere?

At least it wasn’t full of Pokémon. Reads like a top 40 radio station set list, but for gaming.

I can’t read the list due to an adblocker blocker when i have no adblocker

The internet sucks.

Well, I have one and I could see it lol.
- Confired - on my desktop where i have very many blockers, the page loads perfectly. 😅

Mother 3

So amazing

Super Mario Advance 1,2,3 and 4

Mario Kart was by far the best. The ability to play coop with only one of you having the game is something all game companies should do.

I'm surprised at the lack of Drill Dozer. Seriously, give it a try.

I had tons of GBA games but the one I remember most fondly is Link's Awakening DX.

Second would be uh... Damn, I forgot the name of it! It was that Hideo Kojima game with a solar panel in the cart because it used sunlight as a gimmick. It was the closest thing to a MGS game there was on GameBoy at the time, and I loved it. Didn't care for the gimmick tho. You couldn't actually see the screen if you were in direct sunlight which the sensor needed (unlike my damn calculator, using a lamp didn't work).

Edit: Boktai! You mentioned it further down in the comments lol

Max Payne's gba port was really impressive. Check it out if you haven't already :)

I'll always go to bat for Gunstar Super Heroes. It's a full on sequel to the Genesis game - hardly anyone seems to talk about it, which is a shame because it's incredible. Easily one of the best action games on GBA, if not the best. Absolutely deserves a spot in any top GBA list, right alongside Astro Boy Omega Factor.

Since they haven’t been mentioned yet, I’d like to recommend all three Klonoa games on the GBA. There’s Empire of Dreams and Dream Champ Tournament which are both platformers with some puzzle elements. The third game is Klonoa Heroes, which is an ARPG (making it totally different from anything else in the series). Do note that Heroes wasn’t released outside Japan, but there is a translation patch available.

Well, I think nobody has mentioned DBZ Supersonic Warriors yet, I think it was awesome, I also liked the beat them up of the TMNT 2003.

I'll always remember two games I loved playing on my tribal GBA SP. Advance Wars and a game I forget the name of right now.

The cartridge had a UV sensor for detecting daylight. It was all about defeating vampires. So in playing it outside during the day, you could recharge your weapon with real sunlight. But at night the game was too tough as the vampires had the advantage.

"I'll always remember" ------> "I forget the name of right now"
Classic.
- I realised when I read it back but I thought it was fairly humorous. I can visualise the game just not it's name ok! 😆
Boktai - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boktai:_The_Sun_Is_in_Your_Hand
By the very Hideo Kojima
- Thank you! I will play this game when i have time

It's hard to choose, as I had a lot of them. I'd go with the Fire Emblem, Metroid, Castlevania, Zelda, Kirby, Golden Sun, Pokémon and Drill Dozer games. And many great ports like all the Mario games (specially Mario 3), Zelda alttp, Shining Force and the Final Fantasy games.

For my top 5 Kirby & The Amazing Mirror, Zelda Minish Cap and Castlevania Aria of Sorrow, Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga and Fire Emblem Sacred Stones come to mind (in no particular order)

Edit: I forgot Mother 3! To be fair I only played it on emulators, so maybe that's why.

Nothing crazy much to add but the Kingdom Hearts game was really good, one of my favorite from the series.
