I just bought a GBA SP what should I get?

All of my old GB games are gone except for Mario Land 2. It also came with Golden Sun so I need some recommendations.

Advanced Wars
Gradius Galaxies
F-Zero GP Legend
Pinball of the Dead
Rebelstar: Tactical Command
Sigma Star Saga
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga

I'd recommend both Maximum Velocity and the Japan only Climax (especially the latter) over GP Legend.

GP Legend feels like a half assed anime tie-in, which it is, but Climax, though still featuring characters from the anime, is much better designed and even has a track editor. It also doesn't have a crappy "story" mode shoehorned in.

Gunstar super heroes
ninja five o
super dodge ball
kintaros revenge

Off the top of my head:

Advance Wars 1 & 2
Sonic Advance 1-3
Super Mario Advance 1-4 (if you want to play these classics on a handheld)
Metroid Fusion
Super Monkey Ball Jr.
TMNT (the brawler based on the movie)
Legend of Zelda A Link to the Past

Congrats. The SP is a great system, perhaps the best handheld ever made for combination of portability, game library, and battery life.

Get The Legend of Zelda: Minish Cap also. The side kick is literally an annoying talking head in this one, but it's still not that bad of a game. Of course for some really good zelda get the three gameboy color games.

And:
Castlevania Harmony of Disonance : Aria of Sorrow double pack
Double Dragon
Metal Slug
River City Ransom
Kirby Amazing Mirror
Wario Land 4
Super Robot Taisen: original generation 1 & 2


I'm going to put Donkey Kong (93) in here as well for the gameboy/Super gameboy. It's too awesome not to have.

Advance Guardian Heroes. my vote for most underappreciated game ever. People were/are hyper critical of it because it didnt meet their expectations. I've played 90+% of the commonly named top GBA games and Advance Guardian Heroes is easily one of the most enjoyable. I recently got rid of Ninja Five O, but I'll always have a copy of AGH.

Ninja Five-O is a great game, but last I saw it was going for crazy money.

Ninja Five O is a great game. I grew tired of it though, and I can honestly say the original GG Shinobi is just as, if not more, enjoyable.

I agree with gamevet on mario & luigi superstar saga.
I also enjoyed kingdom hearts chain of memories.

also, can't go wrong with any of the pokemon games.

I'd depends on if you can ignore the font torture that is Ruby and Sapphire. ;)

Emerald would be a far better version of the above, in any case.

GBA is a time sink to dig into. Runs virtually anything, lack of piracy/region protection.
Open for all sorts of impossible to comprehend mahjong or whatever.

Astro Boy: Omega Factor. Top class action game for the GBA.
