GameBoy games suck

[James]

So name a few that don't OK? Also, name from GBC ones that don't suck either.

Also, how do emulators handle games with a built-in clock, like Pokemon Silver/Gold?

kirby's dreamland
kirby's pinball land
metroid II

[eggyolk]

sickening how nintendo gets away with selling their games from 10 years ago as brand new games.

[Guitar Woman]

POKEMON >:

If you want something that will make you jab your eyes out in anger, the Mega Man games for gameboy.

If you're into RPGs, the Final Fantasy Legend series.

I don't remember what else is good. All my gameboy games are in a carrying case in a cabinet by my feet. Fuck opening it up though.

[Emu]

Final Fantasy Adventure (I think that's what it's called, it's got the green cover) is actually the first Legend of Mana game, and it's great.

[ArrowX]

Final Fantasy Adventure? I thought Adventure was on the SNES

[Guitar Woman]

That was Mystic Quest

[Guitar Woman]

I think :(

[Emu]

Mystic Quest was the one on the SNES, yeah. That game is better than people give it credit for. :(

[kinot]

Though, for some reason, in Japan it's just "Mystic Quest" (Strange since FF wasn't too popular in the US back then and it's sold like crack over there) and the Final Fantasy Legend games are actually part of the SaGa series.

The first Wario Land was awesome, so was the Mario Land 2: Quest for the 6 Coins. Metal Gear Solid for the GBC wasnt TOO bad. edit typo

[James]

So in other words, the only GB games worth playing are the ones I already own, and I didn't miss out on anything because GameBoy has a shit library. :/

Same for GBC, I take it.

[Sam]

WARIOLAND 3 >:

[Jeff The Ninja]

Dragon Warrior 1&2
Dragon Warrior 3 (GBC)
Double Dragon
Battle Arena Toshiden
Donkey Kong Land 1&2
Donkey Kong Country (GBC)

[Guitar Woman]

SUPER MARIO BROTHERS DELUXE >:

[Mike P]

Bomberman/Max (GBC) is a pretty decent game (games?). The two Mega Man X-Treme games are also all right, if you like watered-down ports of SNES games.

[camacazio]

Man this has been a list of almost entirely all of the gameboy games I own.

[Emu]

Has Link's Adventure been mentioned yet? :eek

[Jeff The Ninja]

Nope, But I am glad you did.

[James]

Someone did say Zelda, but I couldn't find any game that was just called "Zelda." :(

Also, I can't find a game called Link's Adventure. It is a mystery.

I was basically just looking for GB/GBC games I might have missed out on (all I have on my list are the Harvest Moon games). But you guys are basically naming games that I either own, or have no interest in.

I just thought there might be some really awesome games I overlooked.

But keep naming stuff. I'll have to check to see if WarioLand 2 and 3 are worth it. But that's about all I've gotten from this list so far. :(

[camacazio]

I love all the gameboy games I have, but you have to keep in mind that the gameboy was really good for road trips and I never played it when I wasn't on one.

[Guitar Woman]

That's probably because it was called "Link's Awakening"

[Marine]

Final Fantasy Adventure (I think that's what it's called, it's got the green cover) is actually the first Legend of Mana game, and it's great.

Actually it is called Sword of mana.

sorry, generally in any nintendo console, you can say 'zelda' as a reccomended games and you would probobly be right :P

[Royal Tenenbaum]

Tetris. :rock

[Guitar Woman]

Bubble Bobble

God damnit, you idiot, Sword of Mana was a shitty remake of a great game >:

[Immortal Goat]

Link's Awakening
Oracle of Ages
Oracle of Seasons
First 3 Pokemon games
Mario: 6 Golden Coins
Tetris

Can't think of too many more.

[camacazio]

I am literally leaving RIGHT NOW to go try to find and buy a copy of 6 golden coins.

[Sam]

KID ICARUS >:

YOSHI >:

MOLE MANIA >:

DRAGON WARRIOR 3 >:

[Sirhamalot]

Let's see here:
Wario Blast; Super Mario Land; Deja Vu 1, and 2; and Baseball (Old school Game Boy)
Lufia (GBC)
Sega Arcade Gallery; Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga; Golden Sun 1, and 2; Mario Kart; and Wolfenstein 3d (GBA)
Of course there is always the Pokemon games, or Harvest Moon if you like that type of game.

[Fathom Zero]

If the Game Boy Camera counts as a game, I still use it and the printer.

Dragon Warrior Monsters, to me was good.

And I would like to second Metal Gear.

Oh, and Battle Arena Toshinden, easily one of the best handheld fighters.

[dolarene]

In GB only Tetris saves the day, i think Ninten-DOH! May simply soldered the tetris Cartridge in the original GB and let it go as a cheapo standalone game.

[Marine]

personally i think that deja vú 1 and 2 is the greatest GBC game ever,
Cuz it makes my day anyday.

[executioneer]

deja vu is not a game boy game it is a COMPUTOR GAME that was PORTED to game boy >:

[Fathom Zero]

I am literally leaving RIGHT NOW to go try to find and buy a copy of 6 golden coins.
It was the first video game I ever bought myself. I still have it.

[ArrowX]

DIG DUG you faggots >:

[Marine]

deja vu is not a game boy game it is a COMPUTOR GAME that was PORTED to game boy >:
actually it was on the NES first.
then they made a remake and a sequel for PC and after that both the remake and the sequel was ported for the GBC

[executioneer]

marine, deja vu was out first for the APPLE II in 1985. THEN it was on the AMIGA in '86. THEN in '87 they released it for the ATARI ST, COMMODORE 64 and MS-DOS. then in GOD DAMN 1990 the NES version came out. deja vu 2 was out on apple II in 1988, TWO YEARS BEFORE THE FIRST ONE WAS ON NES. >:

SO SHUT UP. >:

[James]

The Deja Vu games for the PC are an entirely different series, just with the same name. The GBA ones are adventure games, and I think the PC series is a FPS.

the pc one is an adventure game also. same type of game as shadowgate.

[Supafly345]

Oh you mean like the Deva Vu on NES

*PUNCHES U*

[EverythingWillSuck]

Boomer's Adventure
Pokemon Pinball
Bonk's Revenge

[VolCanon]

6 golden coins was so easy, it's not funny. Mario Land 3 : Wario was much better.

[Esuohlim]

MOLE MANIA >:

Oh shit, I let a friend of mine borrow this about six years ago and he sold it to someone for $1 :(

Anyone know where I can download this or something?

Pokemon Pinball

When I first bought this I was hooked for days. I haven't really played it since it came out but now every time I try it just bores the shit out of me.

[Juttin]

That was pretty much Wario Land....

[EverythingWillSuck]

Ever since I played the GBA sequel I can't play it again myself either. It's addictive while it lasts, anyways.

[Donuts]

Not all Gameboy games suck.

[executioneer]

you know, you might want to actually read something more than just the thread title before posting a response, dude

[Girl Drink Drunk]

"Also, I can't find a game called Link's Adventure. It is a mystery."

In terms of GB games, did you actually mean Link's Awakening?
