The more rare, obscure, or just a guilty pleasure, the better. Maybe you grew up with it, maybe it’s just the nostalgia talking, any reason is fine.

I’m looking for a new game to play, but I’m running out of games to collect!

My favorite is games for original DMG, but you’re welcome to include Color it’ll advance games too!

Gargoyles Quest was awesome. Love the music from Ocean games too - Hook and RoboCop come to mind.

What? Is this meant to be ironic or something? They’re two of the most popular GBC games.

For some perspective, the Oracle games are unpopular in terms of Zelda games. Zelda is one of the most widely popular video game franchises in history, though. So an unpopular Zelda game is still much more well known and well received than something more obscure.

The Oracles are some of the best selling and most well regarded GBC games in the system’s library, though they are overshadowed by Link’s Awakening DX and the glut of Pokémon games the Game Boy Color had on offer.

They never seem to be talked about in the context of Legend of Zelda games (in fact, seems like most handheld Zeldas get skipped), but they’re probably talked a lot about in the context of gameboy games.

Dragon Warrior Monsters.

I think I’m the only person who’s beaten the Monster Master fight enough times to know there’s a bug in it where he eventually gets strong enough that you get one shotted by him even if you’re cheating and using a Gameshark to keep your health in the 1024 hp range…

Pinball Tycoon was one of my favorites. great music, solid no-nomsense pinball gameplay. it even had a multi-player mode! never seen another soul talk about it.
