Picked up a GBA SP, what are some good games to pick up?

[erehwon]

I picked up a GBA SP from a garage sale for $7 today. What are some good games to pick up? I got from the CC sale a little while ago: Sigma Star Saga, Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, and sword of mana. I'm asking since I've never really paid too much attention to portable games.

lol games cost more than the system itself


try;

Drill Dozer
WarioWare
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga
F-Zero Gp Legend ($3 at K-Mart)
Pokemon Games

All the Castlevania games are fantastic. If you like RPGs both Golden Sun games are good.

Summon Night: Swordcraft Story just came out, but it's pretty hard to find. If you find it, I suggest picking it up. I'm loving it so far, and I'm 10 hours in.

Golden Sun 1 and 2 hands down you MUST get. One of the best games i've ever played for any system + the graphics are great in terms of it being an old GBA game! Great storyline, a lot of gameplay and tons of customization = uberness.

[cochesecochese]

Get uh...

Advance Wars
Minish Cap
Breath of Fire
WarioWare and WarioWare Twisted
Final Fantasy I & II
Final Fantasy Tactics Advance
Mario & Luigi
Super Mario Advance 1-4

to start

[munch]

Get all of the Zelda games, especially Link to the Past if you haven't played that.

I also recommend the warioware games, with the first being better than the 2nd.

A few more good games that haven't been mentioned yet:

Fire Emblem and Sacred Stones
Donkey Kong Country 1, 2, and 3
Metroid Fusion and Zero Mission
Advance Wars 2
Final Fantasy IV

[Scobie]

In no particular order...

Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga
Metroid Fusion
Zelda: Minnish Cap
Gunstar Super Heroes
Wario Ware Twisted
Mario Vs. Donkey Kong
DK: King of Swing
Drill Dozer

[Riyonuk]

Metroid Fusion, and Golden Sun are awesome. 2 of the best games I ever played.

[LarryGe]

mario an luigi is a hell lot of fun, and i couldn't put down advance wars

[Squee]

Megaman Zero series
Castlevania
Super Robot Wars
Tales of Phantasia

[JEKKI]

you gotta get the sleeper hits of the GBA man:

Game n Watch Gallery 4! (only 10 bucks used at eb/gs and has a wealth load of mini games)

Wario World 4 (or wario land 4?)! (mother freakin AWESOME platform adventure game)

[destro713]

Yeah, Wario Land 4 is really an incredible game that nobody has mentioned for the past 3 or 4 years for whatever reason.

I thought Minish Cap was sort of pedestrian. Felt like a chore sometimes. But A Link To The Past is one of the best games ever made.
