    What is your favorite GBA game?

    Mine is Super Mario Advance: Super Mario Bros. 2. I like the music, the vegetables-as-weapons concept, and the whole surreal nature of it (subspace??).

    I was actually hoping to buy another Gameboy Advance game, but I don't know what to get, hence this thread. I have mainly Super Mario games, a Sonic Advance, and all the old Pokemon games. I was considering a Legend of Zelda game of some kind, but I dunno.

    The Harvest Moons on GBA were pretty awesome. I have fond memories of making mayonnaise from my chicken's eggs. (Then there was a storm, letting the chickens out of the outdoors enclosure and a wild dog ate them...)

    By far Golden Sun: The Lost Age. The only GBA game I've racked hundreds of hours on. :grin:

    Two words: Golden Sun.

    Seriously, I mean I loved the Mario and Luigi series, Riviera: The Promised Land, the Final Fantasy remakes, and countless others, but Golden Sun (and TLA) is (to me) the pinnacle of GBA gaming!

    Pretty much Pokemon for me. Predictable and boring answer at this point I guess. :grin:

    Definitely Metroid: Zero Mission. It's a remake of the original Metroid, brought up-to-date to have all of the conveniences of the then-modern installments of the series, also with added content. I've probably beaten that game at least thirty times (it helps that when you get familiar with the game, you can beat it in under two hours, though your first play-through will probably take five to ten), because there are a lot of options for sequence breaking (acquiring items in an order other than the designated order, or skipping them altogether), and that kept the game very fun after numerous play-throughs.

    Well Pokémon would be the games I've put the most hours in...
    But the Boktai series is probably my favorite for its atmosphere, challenge, and solar interactivity.

    But the (kind of rare now) Summon Night games are good, as are the GBA Final Fantasy games.

    Then there's Golden Sun, which I used to love to death until I read an LP that points out tons of faults the series has...

    There were several Yu-Gi-Oh! games I thoroughly enjoyed. And, of course, all the Pokémon games. :grin: I think Sapphire was my favorite.

    Well, I bit the bullet and ordered Advance Wars. It's done well in reviews and a lot of people seem to mention it as a good one. Plus that Max character is pretty hot... :wink:
