1) Final Fantasy 6
2) Lufia 2
3) Robotek (I really REALLY enjoyed this one)
4) Super Mario RPG
5) Golden Sun (GBA counts as 16-bit right? Its visuals are hardly better than the SNES)
6) ........I'm out of ideas. Didn't really enjoy Chrono Trigger due it taking me 5 years to beat. Another game would always get in the way.

The ARM7 in the GBA is a 32 bit processor.
