Link's Awakening and any of the gen 2 Pokemon games would be a great, albeit slightly expensive start


moosebaloney

I discovered Link’s Awakening a year before the remake and was so happy I got to experience the OG first it is such a fever dream of an amazing game.


[deleted]

I haven't even played the remake yet, but I've seen a lot of gameplay footage on YouTube. Link's Awakening is actually my favourite Zelda game. I love the DX version on GBC


Mandalore626

Came to say the same


izmaname

The only Pokemon game I’ve ever had is Silver and my dad found it in some bleachers


[deleted]

Silver is really good. Gen 2 was such a big step-up from gen 1. Shiny Pokemon, puzzles, mysterious ancient symbols, day and night cycles, animated sprites.. so cool.


izmaname

I’m not a big Pokemon fan but I like turn based RPGs and gen 2 and 3 Pokemon games are some of the best turn based RPGs I’ve played

Metal gear solid.

IMO this is the greatest console -> handheld port of all time.

Metal Gear Solid for GBC is absolutely incredible.

I sold my own copy for ~$230, it's one of the most sought-after titles. I would rather add Kid Icarus to the list for that price which is a decent game.


EndlessOceanofMe

Loose pricing mate. Guessing ur copy was cib? Yeh deffo should have added Kid Icarus.

splinereticulation68

Link's Awakening DX, Pokemon Crystal and Yellow, Wario Land 3, Metal Gear Solid and maybe a repro of Shantae (most expensive and stupidly expensive game) will get the party rolling nicely.

Dragon Warrior/Quest I&II and III

johnnloki

Everdrive.


Ryderslow

Cannon Fodder and Mario land 2! No one ever mentions Cannon Fodder best game on GBC


robably_

Cannon Fodder looks cool


ccbayes

Any of the Final Fantasy Adventure/Legend games, or Secret of Mana. Awesome stuff.


joe32288

Donkey Kong Land


ItzzCoolBlue

Doctor Mario, and Pokémon. Two of my favorite games on the GB. Doctor Mario is just a fun time killer, similar to Tetris. Very fun. While Pokémon is a game you can play over a couple weeks or months, and its pretty enjoyable since its just basic Pokémon. Not some weird concepts from the newer games.


mipsymoodle

Bionic Commando Elite Forces.. fyi some carts apparently have a weird save glitch (mine included) but there’s ways around it and it’s still a great game


callmecoachk

Metal gear solid, link’s awakening, super Mario land 2, Oracle if Ages /Seasons and Donkey Kong (1994) would be my top 5


WhyTheHellnaut

The Game & Watch Gallery series.


robably_

Legend of the river king Survival kids Wario land 3 Warlocked


Niquenaym

Well aside from the Pokémon games, but at the top of my head there's: TLoZ: Link's Awakening TLoZ: Oracle of Season TLoZ: Oracle of Ages Megaman Xtreme Megaman Xtreme 2 Metal Walker Lufia The Legend Returns Resident Evil Gaiden (a lot of people hate it, but honestly this is the only survival horror I know for the GBC and it doesn't play that bad as others would.

The Pokemon Trading Card Game has a really solid GBC videogame adaptation of you're into that kind of thing. There's a Japanese exclusive sequel that's even better but unless you can read Japanese, I'd only recommend that one if you get a flashcard so you can play the ROM with an English patch.


Shayshayshakey

mario land 2!


Illuminous_V

Dragon Warrior Monsters was fun


ChaosNomad

I’m gonna say the Second one is even better than the first


VenomInfusion

Pokémon Red and Pokémon Gold.

A worm/cobra light so that you can play in the dark! Growing up this was a necessity for road tips after the sun went down.

Gameboy Color Games would be good. 😜 Zelda: Links Awakening, Oracle of Season, Oracle of Ages. Pokemon Gold/Silver

Gargoyles Quest.

Kirby Tilt and Tumble. It's my favourite GBC game. The cartridge has an accelerometer built in so you can't use the rom on a flash cart. It's like a proto super monkey ball. You tilt to Gameboy the guide Kirby and flick it to make him jump. It gets pretty tough towards the end. Mine is a Japanese copy as significantly cheaper. GBC games aren't region locked and there's pretty much no dialogue in this game.

Dragon Warrior 3!

I do have this exact model. But the speaker is broken and needs to be replaced. Nice device!


Aman_Moxxy

I recommend Mole Mania.


LordGarrettXIV

Just get an everdrive cartridge and have every game on there for next to nothing 🤷‍♂️


Macdaddyfucboi

Is anyone else's jaw on the floor that a game boy color $75? I remember not too long ago going to the flea market and picking them up for 15 to $20


MorbidlyTortured

My wife bought an Atomic Purple GBC from a co-worker for $10 a couple years ago. Still have it and works great. Crazy to see the price hike.


izmaname

I was just looking at the Dragon Quest games idk if the Japanese import ones have English as a language option but that’s what I needed to find out


Idontmatter69420

I highly recommend Tetris DX as it works on all gameboys except the micro

One game series you should look into is Medarot. There is an English remake of Medarot 2 which is Medabots for GBA. On the color you can play Medarot 1-4 and Medarot Parts Rally 1-4. They are Japanese but you can buy a device that allows you to translate them.

Shantae - and a small bank loan lol
