what's your favorite Gameboy game that isn't Pokemon or Mario? (beehaw.org)

I've just rediscovered my childhood Gameboys, I grew up in the 90s and had an original, a color, an advance and an sp. My game collection has whittled down over the year to the usual suspects, Pokemons, Zelda's, Mario's and some other standards. But I want to dive into some games that 7 year old me would have brushed over. So what's your favorite game?

The only thing I disliked about Tactics Advance was I felt like they really cheaped out on Ritz's plot. I'm thinking maybe it comes off better in the context of a japanese culture where standing out like she does really IS culturally frowned upon, but it made very little sense to me in the west and I still feel like she got done dirty. Everyone else has a really good reason to stay, Doned doesn't have functional legs, and she's complaining about her hair.

Other than that one single thing, yeah, still one of the best games I've played. I've never seen a game tackle it from that angle before or since.

Yeah! I've seen a lot of people give it some undeserved grief but I agree, it's a fantastic game! Totally agree with you about Ritz.
