it should be noted that they are the only way to play GB original, GBC games if you are buying items manufauctered now. bawkbawkboo1

lol, both the older GBA and the GBA SP can play GB original and GBC.

But you make a good point.  Gameboy Player should be in this list.

Currently, I own:

Dragonball Z: Legacy of Goku II
Goldensun: The Lost Age
Yu-Gi-Oh! (worthless)
Mega Man Battle Network 3: Blue
Mega Man: Zero 4
Shman King (also worthless)
Need For Speed: Underground (best 3D game right now)

How about adding Tactics Ogre: The Knight of Lodis to the strategy section?

I see that you are adding a sction on the older games.  I would really appreciate that!  I'm thinking about getting some good old GB original/GBC games to complement my small, but good [in my opinion] GBA library.  I do have a DS that I use frequently, but I kept my original GBA to play the old games.  I wanted a collection that could work with my new GBP.  No need for advice of GBA or DS games because I am renting them from GF to see what I like and want to keep.  However, they don't rent the old games, so I need advice.  Right now I've got:

GB:LoZ: Link's Awakening,  LoZ.

GBC:LoZ: Oracle of Seasons, Donkey Kong Land.

I would also appreciate advice on what to aviod as well as what to get.  The reason I posted instead of being patient is because I wanted to get other user's takes on this aswell.  Thanks in advance!

Final Fantasy Legend 2 really isn't that bad.  Sure, it's not really Final Fantasy, but it's a nice standard, turn-based RPG that plays somewhat like the Pokemon games.

Metroid 2: Return of Samus, was for the original GB as well, and although I personally haven't played it, it's a Metroid game, and should be good.

Sorry dude, I don't want this to be a war, I'd even like your support. But it seems like you have other things going on & have been to busy to keep this thread up. I'm not saying it's terrible but I just thought that I could do a better jbo because as of a few days ago I didn't think you would come back because it'd be almost 2 months.

Like I said I don't want this to be some childish fight & I'd like your support I'm going to have Credit toy ou for the main inspiration & everything. But I'm almost finish & I don't wan t to stop now. But like you said yourself before you are busy with school & everything else. Anyway the Thread'll be finished by the end of today I just put the link up in my Siggy if you'd like to go check it out.

Well I guess I have to stop you from advncing on. Saying as how all you really did was make a few changes and expect me to give up my work for you? This board had many redesigns before and if making it flashier is going to help I'll sure do it.

I won't stop, I added tons more games, re organized almost everything, put GameSpot mini reviews, have a priority listing, custom made my own section dividers, + I have a few more things on the way that this thread doesn't & will never have. If you want this to be some kind of silly fight I can't stop you but you definetly can't stop me.

If you want some reliable info about Drill Dozer check out my GBA Recommendation Thread, Drill Dozer especially for $9.99 is an AMAZING 2-D platformer. It's my favorite GBA game besides my PKMN Sapphire

DUDE, it's Official you DON'T need to be running a GBA Recommendation Thread, if you think Drill Dozer is a puzzle game then PKMN is a Sports game.

Oh really I make a mistake and the thread is not good enough for me?

Hi! I'm going on a trip this upcoming weekend, and although I have a DS Lite, I still love to play my GBA games. I'm a big RPG lover, and I was just wondering, Riviera or Final Fantasy IV. Eventually, i'll get both, but which one for now? Thanks ahead of time! ^_^

This mabye a stupid question or has already been answered. If so, sorry. What are some good multiplayer games that use the game link cable, but only require one game pak? I'm considering picking up a couple of the cables [so two or four people can play at once], but is it worth it at all? I have like three friends with GBAs or GBASPs, so it should be simple enough tech wise since they don't need adapters. If I do, should I get enough for two people to play or four? [are there enough good games that support four players to warrent the extra two purchases?].

None. The GBA wasn't advanced enough for that because there was no central download system in it.

I'm getting a DS for Christmas, and of course, along with the DS comes the GBA. I was just looking for recommendations outside of RPGs and the major franchises.

The thing is, I'm a cheap ass. So I'd like to know of games that are relatively inexpensive ($10 or less used) and still good. Tonight I got my first GBA game off Ebay, Metroid Fusion for $10. :) However, if there are some amazing GBA games that run a little higher, I'll take those into consideration as well. Thanks.

You want the Castlevania Double Pack.

You may have to pay full price for it, but it contains 2 full-length Castlevania games, uncut, unchanged from their original releases. They are very good as well. If you like Metroid, there is a high chance you will like this.:)
