    Hi internet! I'm getting a gba in a week and I am so excited. I was wondering if there are any good games and what your faviroue games are for the system. Game boy and gameboy colour games are still cool as you can play them on a gba. The list of games I will hopefully get unless said I have are:
    Aria of sorrow
    Fire red
    Link to the past/Four swords
    Fire emblem
    Metroid fusion
    Metroid II (getting with gba)
    Megaman zero
    Megaman Xtreme (getting with gba)
    Pokemon green
    Pokemon sapphire (got)
    I'd to hear what you peoples think of the list, and your own list of games that you'd like or your faviroute games.

    Great choices. :icon_bigg

    But my suggestion has to be Advance Wars, obviously!

    My favorite games are Metroid Zero Mission, Tales of Phantasia, and Sonic Advance.

    You already have two of the best games on the console (Metroid Fusion and Fire Emblem) so you are up to a great start, here are a couple more musts (besides the ones already mentioned):

    -Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones
    -TLOZ: Minish Cap
    -Golden Sun
    -Golden Sun: The Lost Age
    -Warioland 4
    -Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga
    -Final Fantasy Tactics Advance
    -Kirby and the Amazing Mirror
    -SMA 3: Yoshi's Island
    -Advance Wars 2: Balckhole Rising
    -Wario Ware Inc.

    And if you can get that GBA with the gyroscopic sensor attachment you absolutely must try Wario Ware Twisted and Mario Pinball Land.

    Demikids is a pretty interesting one, if you haven't tried it yet! Otherwise.. most of what I can suggest are Final Fantasy and Pokemon. D:

    Someone has great taste; I personally highly recommend the Golden Sun duo(arguably my favorite series on the system).

    All Pokémon aside(heh), to name some more:

    - Drill Dozer
    - F-Zero: Maximum Velocity
    - WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$
    - Zelda: the Minish Cap

    I swear if they don't release a fourth entry for the 3DS I will... I will do something really bad... I think... BUT THEY HAVE TO! They can't leave us with that cliffhanger from Dark Dawn.

    I was hooked on Tetris and Dr. Mario when I was a kid. I had the original GB.

    Do not even go there...I have been trying to hold what little sanity I have left in hopes of hearing an announcement for a DD sequel on the 3DS. If only it becomes one of the surprise releases of '15...(one can dream)

    After all, look at how many years were between TLA and DD. :dead: It's been ~ 4 since Dark Dawn?

    Golden Sun (the lost age).

    Anyone that agrees with me is automatically a supreme human being, and I love you.

    Sacred stones is a good game... Minish cap never appealed to me, just a bit cheesy and cartoony. Golden sun is always a good series to play. Forgot to add pokemon crystal to my list... The games I ordered came today (yay!), but I haven't got a way of playing mega man because the darn GBA hasn't arrives yet, and can't play metroid because it's for christmas

    Can't you hear the sounds?
    Metroid Fusion is awesome. If you like Metroid I highly recommend it. It's somewhat more linear than the rest of the series, but it's still really fun, and still has exploration.
    And of course bosses and the Saxophone segments. XD

    Being an rpg fan I would go for:
    -Golden Sun;
    -Golden Sun Lost Age;
    -Fire Emblem;
    -Fire Emblem- The Sacred Stones;
    -Breath of Fire (if you can ignore the awful plot and conversations);
    -Breath of Fire 2
    -Every Final Fantasy there is in the GBA.

    Oh, and let´s not forget Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga. I love the entire series :slight_smile:

    Your list is brilliant, however, to add to that list, I must say The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap, Advance Wars, and Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising

    I recommend Zelda: a link to the past
    which also contains Zelda: four swords which is a multiplayer game
