Title: Ressurecting my GBA SP
Post by: etiolate on July 28, 2008, 05:27:24 PM

Well I have no TV, my vid card is dying and my DS was lost long ago. I did dig up my GBA SP and I am craving for a game. Give me some recommendations, ideally some new or great RPGs/Adventure games.

What I already have:
Mario & Luigi: Superstar
Metroid Fusion and Zero Mission
Final Fantasy V

I've been playing Oracle of Seasons for the last few days on PSP, if you're open to GBC stuff

The games you already have are kickass. Besides that we have (some are already mentioned, but these are just my personal favorites)

-Zelda: Minish Cap. This is my favorite 2D zelda. It is... incredible.
-Ninja Five-O: this one may be hard to track down (I luckily found a copy on Ebay). What we have here is a mix between NES Ninja Gaiden, Bionic Commando grappling and some Castlevania thrown in. Do your best to find this game.
-Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow. Best metroidvania
-CV: Circle of the Moon. Pretty challenging at times, but that's part of what makes it a great game.
-WarioWare inc.
-Golden Sun: a decent rpg with some impressive visuals when it comes to battles.

and last but not least... ASTRO BOY: ZOMG FACTOR. this is one of the finest action games on the system. Besides that there are the Mario ports and zelda: alttp, a game that still hasn't aged a day and is as awesome as ever.

I would advise against the purchase of drill dozer since it is overrated and really not all that fun.

i'll second the recommendations for MM Zero's, Boktai, and Astro Boy, and i'll also suggest Metroid Zero.  all excellent games.

I have the Wario Wares btw and Bubble Bobble.

I searched around and there was only used GBA games and new licensed crap, but I saw a Minish Cap and Four Swords for sale. I know of Ninja 5-0 but thats impossible to find. =/

Ninja Cop is the best GBA game.

Hard to find though.
