1 SNK vs. Capcom: Match of the Millennium
2 Dark Arms
3 Metal Slug 1st & 2nd Mission
4 Faselei!
5 Sonic Pocket Adventure
6 Rockman Battle and Fighters
7 Card Fighters Clash
8 Biomotor Unitron
9 The Last Blade
10 Pocket Tennis

As others have said, SNK vs. Capcom: MotM is ridiculously good. I have Dark Arms listed pretty high but that's b/c in my opinion it's just fun for some reason and the weapon system and general theme of the game are interesting.

I suppose Pocket Tennis is a controversial addition but it's the first game I bought with my original b&w and I'm a sucker for simple oldschool tennis games. Some other titles worth looking at are the Dive Alerts (one version should be fine) and Ganbare Neo Poke Kun if you're willing to import. It's a super crazy collection of mini games.
thanks man thats a great list to start looking into. i dont want to just have metal slug and king of fighters so i need to get started finding some of these gems. once again thank you to everyone for ya'lls input. ill keep yall posted on how my searching goes.

as a portable item, you can't miss Neo Turf Masters. Prolly one of the best handheld golf titles.

I just got a NGPC. I am still waiting for it to come in the mail, this sucks!
Is Metal Slug 2nd Mission really rare or something? I see it go for absurd prices on ebay.
I found it online for $9, but it's a secret. *shhhhh!*

I am amazed at how cheap most of the games are, I actually have a chance at getting most of the games for it.

It finally came in the mail! the screen isnt perfect but I wouldn't expect it to be, it has the typical itsy bitsy scratches you see on every portable screen. I have been thoroughly enjoying Metal Slug 1 and 2. I think the next games I get will be Card Fighters and either KOF or SvC or something.

Cool! I love my NGPC. I keep it by the computer to play during long installs, or take it into the kitchen to play while waiting for water to boil or whatever. Great little time waster.
Comics, RPG's, miniatures, and now retrogaming? I guess its time to learn to go without eating...
