Ill throw out Great Greed and Gargoyle's Quest. Really didn't get into handhelds much until the GBC though.

Pyramids of Ra is still one of my favorite puzzle games, Gameboy or not. Tons of levels (I never got through all the levels) and simple gameplay with a good amount of depth.

Hmm, I'm going to try this out later. I'm in the mood for a good puzzle game right now.

Final Fantasy Adventure was remade on the GBA under its proper title Sword of Mana. It took the Graphics of 3, the gameplay of 2 and remade 1 - now thats not a convoluted sentence:

I had always enjoyed Croc for the GBC. A fun little platformer.

No problem noiseredux, I only discovered it recently. I was never a Mana fan (havent played any past an hour or two) but now I really want to play through them. Just gotta find a suitable partner to play them with...

I remember really liking this one:

I thought about nominating the TMNT game, but really, it's not that great. The side-scrolling parts aren't too entertaining, though for some reason as a kid I was addicted to the number guessing mini-game included.

Did you try it out? I've honestly never talked with anyone who's played the game, so I'm curious what you thought. It's a game I pop out every few years and I consistently enjoy it, even though I first played it close to fifteen years ago. Tetris is the only other Game Boy game I can say that about.

Yeah, I just got on the 2nd pyramid. Moving blocks provided a little difficulty for me because I didn't know that I had to keep moving along with it as opposed to riding on it. Definitely a fun and fast moving game. Puzzle games definitely age well; the fact that the game is old isn't a detriment at all.

Skate Or Die: Bad N Rad... I completely forgot about this game until I stumbled over a blurb on the internet today. I used to love the hell out of this game!
