Favorite GBA games...
I'll start. :p

-The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap
Without a doubt, my favorite 2D Zelda game, and probably my favorite Zelda game overall. It has a ton of content outside the main quest (Kinstones, minigames, etc.) and I even found collecting the little figurines strangely addictive. Also, it has some of the best graphics and sound on the GBA.

-Riviera: The Promised Land
While this game garnered mixed reviews from the gaming press, I found it to be a lot of fun. While the exploration and combat are different from any other RPG game, I found it to be a rewarding experience. Great music, sound, and story make this one a joy to play.

-Final Fantasy Tactics Advance
Tactics games have always been one of my favorite genres, and this game is probably the genre's pinnacle. Not only does it have the great sound, story, and art style you would expect from a Final Fantasy game, the tactical combat is deep, while still easy to control. The main story lasts about a dozen hours, but the side quests and extra content can keep you playing for hundreds of hours.

-Pokemon: FireRed/LeafGreen

While the Pokemon formula might not be for everyone, you probably have played one or two of these addicting RPGs. What are essentially remakes of the first Pokemon games, FR and LG add a ton of polish and extra gameplay. The graphics, sound, and interface are much improved, and the core gameplay is still as addictive as ever. Aslo, after you complete the main story, you open up access to a few more islands to add many more hours of gameplay.

-Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga
Taking the core gameplay from Super Mario RPG (snes) and adding an extreme layer of polish and humor, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga is one of the best, if not the best RPGs on the GBA. The story and world are completely unique and engaging, and the fun minigame-style combat never gets boring and keeps you on your toes all the time. A must play for Mario fans and RPG fans alike.

I liked Legend of Zelda: Four Swords more than Minish Cap.
Also, Pokémon R/S/C was better than FR/LG.

Yes! Someone else mentioned Golden Sun. GS1 & 2 were frankly awesome (music, gameplay and graphicwise, especially on the GBA).

Cannot wait for GS3!

My favorite GBA game is "Super Mario Advance 4" and i am crazy about it and i always play it. I like more GBA games too.
#37
I liked Golden Sun 1 and 2. The gameplay was pretty good, and the story and graphics were excellent. The only thing I didnt like was that I needed both games to finish the whole story. When 1 ended I thought I had beaten the game, however all I got was a code and a message saying to complete the game I needed to enter the code into 2 and pick up where I left off (items, money, levels etc) I got kinda mad since I didnt have the second one but my BF had it so he let me play on it. XD
#38
Pokemon in general, Are the best games for GBA.
Thats just my opinion.
#39
Pokemon were the best. Also the double dragon were alright. How can everyone forget the Dragon Ball games , eh? They rocked as well.

The Golden Sun Saga !
