What do you think the BEST GBA games are?(GBA, not GB/GBC)
I wanna get my Micro some new friends:D

From what I've played, the best ones are

Zelda: aLttP and Super Mario World

Thinking of:
SMA 3: Yoshi's Island
Bit Generations: Dotstream
WarioWare, Inc.
Sonic Advance-Sonic Pinball Party 2-pack

Already got Minish Cap, Mario Advance 1 and 4, and Sonic Advance 2 and 3.
Open to suggestion... Also, what are some good multiplayer games?
 
I really enjoyed Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories for the GBA.
If you're a fan of the others, you'll like this one as well.

Metroid Fusion and the other metroid are fun as well.
 
Damn I was going to suggest the Final Fantasy ports :lol:

Get Metroid Fusion and Zero Hour, both are quite good. If you like wrestling, Fire Pro Wrestling is a damn fantastic game.
 
My top GBA games:

Metroid Zero Mission
Metroid Fusion
Final Fantasy VI
Final Fantasy IV
Zelda Minish Cap (Better than LttP because of way less wondering around if you forget something from before and Boss fights are harder which makes it fun)

Can someone recommend me a GBA/DS Metroid-like game other than Castlevania?
 
A few personal favorites come to mind -

Castlevania Double Pack
Advance Wars
Astro Boy: The Omega Factor
Street Fighter Alpha 3 Advance
Any of the Mega Man Zero games
Kirby: Nightmare in Dreamland
Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo

Scurge: Hive. It's been called a Metroid ripoff but still worth the play, only $10 new at EB/GS (DS or GBA, DS version has the map showing at all times).
 
Drill Dozer=action? or is it puzzle?
Metal Slug isn't turn based, right?
Advance wars is fun... I'll try and find it somewhere...
Already got Twisted >.>
Then there's Super Circuit and Yoshi's Island...

I think I'll get Drill Dozer, Advance Wars, and Yoshi's Island.
 
My favorites are the Advance Wars games, the Zelda games, and the Bit Generations series (Dotstream is fantastic of course, but so are Orbital and Sound Voyager).

It's a platformer. I really enjoyed it. Kmart has it on clearance for $3. It's also $10 at TRU.
 
I don't understand sound voyager... what do you do?
I'll keep an eye out for Drill Dozer.
Is orbital multiplayer?(I think they all are besides dotstream)
 
I've been looking for it for a while and still can't get a good price, but Shining Soul I and II are amazing for a GBA game.

Street Fighter Alpha 3 Advance is great as well.
 
Thanks. I'll have to check that game out.

Doom II Advance (I wish I had this game)[/QUOTE]

Really? It's not very good. It was one of my Circuit City 2004 clearance finds and while it's initially fun to be playing Doom on a tiny little screen (use the Micro!) the controls and framerate aren't very good. If they ever release a Doom compilation for PSP or the Nintendo DS, this one is outta here.

My favorite GBA games are probably

Zelda - Minish Cap (although they're all good)
Shining Force
The Megaman Zero games (well, I've only played 3 and 4 but they were pretty good)
The Castlevania games
The Metroid games
Final Fight One(Double Dragon Advance was awesome as well)
The F-Zero games

That's about all the spring to mind at the moment. Lots more are out there though, the GBA had/is having a very impressive run.

I'll take it off your hands if you don't want it anymore :)

So very, very awesome.

Also, Wario Ware Twisted.

Astro Boy: Omega Factor
Boktai
Boktai 2
Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow
Castlevania: Circle of the Moon
Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance
Drill Dozer

Well if you see a lot of people liking one game, that might be a good game...
