GBA was just fantastic, so many incredible games there. Everything had so much content considering the limitations. Really glad to see Mother 3 top, I loved my time with it and honestly wish the translators would get a wee bit of credit because their translation is synonymous with the game. Not surprised the Mario games are ranked lower, due to their grating voice acting. That ruined the experience for me! Despite many other technologically-superior handheld consoles introduced during its lifetime, the Game Boy was a tremendous success. The Game Boy and Game Boy Color combined have sold 118.69 million units worldwide. Upon its release in the United States, it sold its entire shipment of one million units within weeks. Glad to see Metroid: Zero Mission in the top 3. I'll need to do some soul searching, but it's quite possibly my favorite Metroid title.

What I got from all this was to confirm my belief that instead of N64, Nintendo should add a Game Boy Advance-Nintendo Switch Online app. Hold up, where’s mario kart super circuit? I haven’t played it in years so maybe I just remember loving it, but kind of surprised it didn’t make the list. I can’t complain though since the GBA library was really great! This exhibit has a reference ID of CH4033. Please quote this reference ID in any communication with the Centre for Computing History. Ralizah Zero Mission really is incredible. I’m not sure I could separate that and Super Metroid but they’re my two favourite 2D games. I do prefer Prime 1 and 2 however.But hey, it has Drill Dozer, Wario Ware Twisted, Minish Cap (obviously), Advance Wars, Yoshi's Island, FF Tactics, Mario & Luigi, Golden Sun,... That's a lot of "my childhood". Great list I'd say, most of the ones I enjoyed most are in there, and the ones I expected but never played or didn't really enjoy that much also. Oh man, I completely forgot about Gunstar Super Heroes. I used to own that game, it was fantastic. It was lost along with my GBA SP during an incident many years ago, involving my tent blowing into a swamp along with all the contents therein. I tried to fish out what I could, but had a face to face encounter with a very large snapping turtle, at which point I decided he could keep my stuff. Solid list. It's probably accurate that the SNES / GBA libraries consist of most of my favorite games.

e-love yeah I played Golden Sun several times through, but the first hour of each playthrough was just holding a + b in general, that at least made the text go "automatically" if I remember correctly (or maybe only in the second game). And it still took what seemed like forever I still know almost exactly what happens in that time, and I wouldn't do it again now despite really loving the games. My personal favorite is Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga. I was in elementary school when it came out and I only got it because we couldn't find Grunty's Revenge anywhere. I have to say I'm glad it turned out that way because Superstar Saga became one of my favorite games of all time. In my opinion it's simply perfect. If GBA had nothing but Castlevania, Metroid, and Golden Sun, it’d still be one of the best systems ever and well worth hunting down today. It just happens to have boatloads of other classics as well.Communication: Up to 2 Game Boys can be linked together via built-in serial ports, up to 4 with a DMG-07 4-player adapter. More than 4 players is possible by chaining adapters. Whilst there are of course things I'd swap around a bit, generally speaking this is a really solid list and I'm delighted that the two Golden Sun games are as high ranking as they are. Nice one everyone! As for Mother 3, I dont know if it reached #1 because of the ever-maddening push to localize it, or if people really believe its one of the best GBA games of all time. Probably a little of both? It is a really good game, regardless. I've played Metroid Prime a few times, and if you didn't have to do the Artifact hunt near the end, which completely destroys the pacing, it'd probably be one of my favorite GameCube games. But it pulls that Wind Waker BS by making you go on a tedious item hunt, and, frankly, it puts me off to the point where I don't even like replaying the game much anymore. Shame games like Tekken Advance, Sonic Advance 3 didn't make it. I think Mario Kart SC is a bit too low.)
