This list will definitely take some careful consideration.

Advance Wars
Mario Kart: Super Circuit
Kuru Kuru Kururin
Metroid Fusion
Astro Boy: Omega Factor
Street Fighter Alpha 3 Upper
Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 - I don't know how they managed this port on GBA hardware
Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones
Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town
Golden Sun

I've intentionally left out some games that were ports of SNES releases as I intend to put them in the SNES list when we get round to it (I didn't own one so there aren't many games I've actually played).

Golden Sun
Advance Wars
Wario Ware
Wario Ware Twisted
Astro Boy
Metroid Zero Mission
Castlevania Aria of Sorrow
Zelda Minish Cap
Metroid Fusion
Wario Land 4

Klonoa: Empire of Dreams
The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap
Mario Tennis: Power Tour
Advance Wars
Golden Sun
ChuChu Rocket!
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Konami Krazy Racers
Kuru Kuru Kururin
Jurassic Park III: Park Builder

In no particular order

Kuru Kuru Kururin
Advance Wars
Wario Ware
Pokemon Fire Red
Mario Kart: Super Circuit
Legend of Zelda: Minish Cap
Metroid Fusion
Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga
Wario Land 4
Sonic Advance

The Super Mario Advance ports and Link to the Past come very close to this for me, they were my first opportunities to play some of these games but the others as entirely original games have to come first.

Absolutely brilliant system though, I made the mistake of selling a number of my Game Boy Advance games years ago, really need to pick some of the missing ones up at some point in the near future.

Rhythm Tengoku
Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow
Astro Boy: Omega Factor
Klonoa: Empire of Dreams
The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap
Sonic Advance
Wario Ware: Twisted
Fire Emblem
Advance Wars
Metroid: Zero Mission

Was quite hard to narrow that down to 10. GBA :wub:

I'm only here to look down my nose at anyone who omits Advance Wars.

What an incredible game that was. :datass:

I've never played the GBA sequel sadly, though I have played Klonoa 1-2 since. Such a lovely little platformer series

From what little I played on GBA I'd go with

Advance Wars
Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga
Golden Sun
Mario Golf: Advance Tour
Megaman Battle Network 2
Chu Chu Rocket
Final Fantasy Tactics Advance

Maybe more to follow.

Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga
Metroid Zero Mission
Castlevania Aria of Sorrow
Klonoa Empire of Dreams
WarioWare Inc.: Mega Microgame$

Dream Champ Tournament didn't get released over here

I've played it only briefly as I emulated it, but it just doesn't feel right to me to play it with keyboard controls.

I borrowed Klonoa 2 back in the day so still need to get my own copy. As well as Empire of Dreams I have the Klonoa remake for Wii and the PS1 game digitally on Vita. I used to own the PS1 beach volleyball game too, but traded it in (one of only 2 games I have ever traded in) and I regret it greatly. I need to get on ebay or something and fix these holes in my Klonoa collection.

Metroid Fusion

The Legend of Zelda: Minish Cap

Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga

Advance Wars

Metroid Zero Mission

Mario Kart: Super Circuit

F-Zero: Maximum Velocity

Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones

WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgames!

F-Zero: GP Legend

Well, feel free to pity me. Never knew it was a thing. Just googled it and it looks great: loved WW on the GameCube.

Presumably the hardware involved means you can't emulate it, either

I'm sorry my tolerance for mediocre games is low.
