I agree with the Wario series being one of the best for the GB/GBC. I'd also pick up Castlevania: Belmont's Curse. While I haven't played Kid Dracula, I've only heard great things about it. If you want an action RPG, you should check out Gargoyle's Quest. It takes some getting used to, but a fun game nonetheless. Also, Ninja Gaiden Shadow should be on your list. As should either of the Contra titles. Battletoads in Ragnarok's World is a faithful port of the NES' Battletoads (I didn't care for the original Battletoads on the GB, which for some reason is a completely different game from the NES version).

Hope that helps!

The GBC version of Crystalis is terrible. Stick to the NES version.

Truth. The only good thing about the GBC version is that you don't run into sword immunities, which got annoying in the later dungeons. I don't mind weaknesses and resistances, but when I have to start inventory dancing to even do damage now I'm pissed.
