Nothing beats the black and white version of Link's Awakening (in my opinion). Magical. The land was constructed by your imagination, while being outlined by Nintendo.

I still hold that Link's Awakening is the best LoZ game. Certainly not the biggest or most influential, but in terms of setting and story, it's special in a way that the other games are not

I agree - it's my favourite memory of gaming when I was a child. Perhaps I would feel the same about other Zelda games if I had played them in the same era, but I never played the SNES and N64 games until years later.

The Gameboy version of Dr. Mario is great. When you get a chain reaction and it played the different tones was unique to this version and was such a motivator to do well. I never cared about points, I always wanted to set it up so it would do the jingles when I did well.

Can't argue with the top choice, Links Awakening might be the best game on any system ever. Mario Land 1 should easily be top 10. I also really enjoyed Dr. Franken and Alfred Chicken on the Game Boy, both original quirky platform adventures.

Final Fantasy Legend is great, but it should not force Final Fantasy Legend II out of a top slot, and I would argue Final Fantasy Adventure also merits a place on this list. If only choosing one from Square, it should be FFL2.
@timitnyre58319 ай бұрын
Agree on both points. Final Fantasy Legend II is easily the best traditional turn based RPG on Game Boy. And Final Fantasy Adventure really pushed the Game Boy's limits with how big the adventure was. For its time, it also has what might have been the best story of any Game Boy game up to that point.

I would put Pokémon at the top. The massive sales figures don't lie. The monster catching mechanic made it so much more addictive than ordinary turn based RPGs. Though I personally personally like Link's Awakening better, and it has aged better. Tetris is great, but doesn't deserve the second spot in my opinion.

You can't put "massive sales figures don't lie" and "tetris is overrated" in the same sentence lmao. Besides, Wario Land II is just better :p
@cube2fox4 ай бұрын
@@tomdekler9280 I think Tetris was bundled with the Game Boy at some point, which would make the sold copies an unreliable measure. I agree Wario Land II is also a great game. Actually, it is in a sense similar to Pokémon. While Pokémon puts a whole different layer on top of the traditional RPG formula, Wario Land II puts a different layer on top of the traditional platformer formula (as exhibited by traditional games like Super Mario World or Donkey Kong Country). You are not only defeating enemies and walking to the level exit, no, you are also doing things like manipulating the level layout, or altering the story progression.

Awesome list. It's a bit of a rare opinion, but I also think Final Fantasy Legend is the better game out of the original SaGa series. It's much shorter, more minimal, and actually has more options for party customization owing to the fact that you can actually choose how many members are in your party. The other games may be more polished in the traditional sense, but I find Final Fantasy Legend is more fun to return to for repeat playthroughs.

That was a pretty good selection. However, I am disappointed that my favourite Mega Man game from the Game Boy series, Mega Man IV, was not included in this list. It definitely deserves it. Also, I think the same could be said about the original Wario Land. By the way, I didn't even know that there is a third Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game for Game Boy. I am definitely going to try it at some point.

Having played all the Final Fantasy Legend games, the best one is 2. And the 3rd one is still better than the first. In 2 there is a large connected multiverse to explore through a connected world tree, and 3 has a fun time travel element to it. 1 is just bland, I barely remember anything about it's story.
