Gaming Recommend some games.

[TheVirus]

I've played the obvious choices so far, but am looking for some more hidden gems. There are over 2000 GBA titles and I don't want to go through them 1 by 1. I've never owned a GBA, so I have no idea what's good and what's not.

Here's a list of DS titles I've played so far.

Castlevania - Dawn
Ouendan
Cooking Mama
Jump Superstars
Brain Age/Big Brain
Burnout Legends
Dotstream
Dial Hel
Lost in Blue
Magnetica
Mario 3 on 3 (more like 1 on 3, useless teammates).
Super Mario Bros
Mario Kart (boring)
Metroid
Mr Driller
Phoenix Wright
Trauma Center
True Swing Golf
Tak
Viewtiful Joe
Trace Memory

There are others I've played, but those are currently on the DS. As for the GBA, I have Zelda - Minish Cap (freaking great), Megaman Battle Network, Castlevanias, and a few others.

Too many choices, so very little time.

well, on the DS side you would do well to check out both Rub Rabbit games, The Mario and Luigi RPG (can't recall exact name) Wario Touched, and probably Resident Evil.

I have been out of the GBA for a little while but Drill Dozer is excellent. Also Guru Logic Champ.

 

[TheVirus]

Thanks for those. RE isn't my style, I really don't like it. Rub Rabbit is really bizzare, but I'll continue to play it because it's unique. Wario Touched is like Rub Rabbit, but far more annoying, I may have to pick that up again.

 

[ds6220]

oh yes, the "micro" game type games can get really annoying if you are not to into those so if run rabbits annoy you at all or if wario left a bad impression, it will probably not get any better. I sort of punish myself with games sometimes. you know, try to get and do everything in a game, even if I stopped having fun. if you like platform games then the 2 Mario games on the DS are worth playing (maybe even Princess Peach??)

 

[sipoon]

meteos is pretty cool
i can't stop playing Tetris Ds on Wifi

 

[Sors]

you are missing kirbys canvas course. very short game but pretty fun

also...no advance wars? you should try it. it even has hotseat multiplayer iirc

 

[El Diablo]

Yes, Tetris DS, and ds6220, the mario and luigi game is called "Mario and luigi: Partners in time"

Great game

 

[TheVirus]

Tetris got old and boring on my old oringinal Gameboy, not a fan anymore. I think I tried playing Advanced Wars, but couldn't figure out what the hell I was doing

I'll give it another go since people seem to like it.

Thanks.

Try racing gears for the gba its pretty cool , its like that old sprint game from the arcade except with new cars and weapons.

 

[qwertylol]

Stafy 4 and Super Princess Peach are both VERY solid platformers. (peach you need to just pass the first two worlds, after that it is so much better)

 

[martin88]

WarioWare Twisted.

 

[ds6220]

Yes, Tetris DS, and ds6220, the mario and luigi game is called "Mario and luigi: Partners in time"

Great game

Ah yes. that was it. I also loved the first one for the GBA.

 

[TheVirus]

Played and beat Astroboy for the GBA in 1 sitting, fun game though.

 

[kelvinate]

you should definitly try out the bit generations series. I believe this is what gaming shoudl be. take a single idea and make it really enjoyable and fun the play.

 

[TheVirus]

Yeah, I am. Sound Voyager is tough after a while, and I can't seem to figure out how to go to different branches, maybe I gotta beat the one I'm on. Definitely need headphones to play that one.

For GBA, I thought Rebel Star: Tactical Command was choice.
