Best GBA games?

[SquirrelPants]

I really have hated the GBA for a long time. I bought every version of the GBA, but had problems with all of them breaking and whatnot until I finally got a DS. I mostly played DS games, but there were a few GBA games that I really enjoyed when I played them, the Pokemon games in particular. I didn't play many of them, though, and eventually lost interest in playing them shortly after stores stopped selling them.

So apparently there are plenty of amazing games out there, and I'd really like to catch up on all that gaming I missed, and so I ask you all this question: What are your favorite GBA games?

The Pokemon series hands down.

 

[Grayjack]

Buy the Golden Sun series, now!

 

[Pacifist Chris]

advance wars, if you like turn based stuff of course

Golden Sun is one suggestion you will hear A LOT soon enough. If you like SRPG's, track down the Fire emblem games. Also for the love of god track down Zone of the Enders: The Fist of Mars, and Tactics Ogre: The Knight of Lodis. Those two are the best games I have ever played on the GBA and best stories the GBA had to offer.

Fire Emblem and Fire Emblem the Sacred Stones were both awesome.

 

[Et3rnalLegend64]

Advance Wars, Fire Emblem, Metroid Fusion/Zero Mission, Boktai.

 

[NuclearPenguin]

The Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Pokemon Past

 

[Ph33nix]

F-14 tomcat. nearly impossible to find but an awesome arcade flight simulator. Plus you get to live out your stopping nuclear war by being a one plane 2 man killing machine fantasies

Spoiler: spoiler for a game with basically no story!

In one level you have to take on 90 migs by yourself. of coarse you can take the easy way a just launch a cruise missile at the air base but thats no fun.

also Super Mario Bros superstar saga i love that game. Yahtzees review of the sequal made me pull it out again.

You just bought it for the 3 limited edition official game cards inside!

 

[Crapster]

The Super Mario Advance games are solid ports of some of the best 2D Mario games, including Super Mario World and Super Mario Bros. 3

Actually, I bought it used, so it didn't come with the cards.

 

[SovietSecrets]

The Megaman Battle Network series was pretty awesome on the GBA.

I dunno about you guys, but the Mario remakes was what attracted me to the system in the first place. However, I like one of the Dragonball games, too. I forgot what it was called, though.

 

[Pimppeter2]

I loved Mario vs Donkey Kong. It was brilliantly fun

 

[Andaxay]

The two Golden Sun games, Final Fantasy Tactics: Advance, both Fire Emblems, and the Advance Wars games are my favourites. You'll probably have them recommended many times.

 

[MetallicaRulez0]

Golden Sun and the Pokemon series are both incredible. They're the only games I have ever owned for any handheld, and I've owned all of them since the original Brick.

 

[Rock 'n' Soul]

I really liked Golden Sun and Advance Wars...plus there was a Harvest Moon in there that wasn't too bad.

Metroid: Zero Mission. Imagine the story and areas of the original Metroid crossed with the gameplay of Super Metroid. It's probably my favorite Metroid ever. Metroid...Metroid, Metroid, Metroid.
