/vr/ - Retro Games

>overlooked games
Guess nobody actually read the OP.

Bear in mind some of these may be common / shovelware, but they're not really titles anyone talks about.

>Altered Beast: Guardian of the Realms
>Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance
^Pales in comparison to console versions, but it's still pretty solid.
>Everything Bomberman - Tournament, Max, Classic NES Series Bomberman, etc.
>Boulder Dash EX
>Bubble Bobble: Old & New
>Contra Advance
^Loose port of Alien Wars with a few stages borrowed from Hard Corps.
>Crash Bandicoot: The Huge Adventure
^The only Crash on GBA I'd recommend.
>Drome Racers, Need for Speed Underground 2, Top Gear Rally
^All the proper racing games you'll need, complete with 3D graphics.
>Fortress
^A weird fusion of Tetris and tower defense that's just fun.
>Frogger's Adventures 1 & 2, Frogger's Journey
^Journey is an action-adventure take on Frogger, similar to Zelda.
>Gradius Generation
>Iridion 3D, Iridion II
>Jurassic Park III: Park Builder
^Very cool sim / management game for GBA. Build a theme park, harvest dinosaur DNA, watch dinosaurs eventually escape and eat people, rinse and repeat.
>Konami Krazy Racers
^Much better than Mario Kart.
>Lode Runner
^Japan import, but that's why you have a Flash cart, right? Simple but solid action-puzzle game with an editor mode.
>Mech Platoon
^To my knowledge, the only RTS for this system. Fun, but the AI is dumb as shit.
>Ms. Pac-Man: Maze Madness
>Ninja Five-O
^Combines Shinobi and Bionic Commando.
>Pinball of the Dead
>Spyro 2: Season of Flame
^Isometric platformer that works so very well on the GBA. I don't really recommend the other Spyro games though. Season of Ice has some horrible stage design.
>Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts
^Port of the SNES game with additional stages. Approaches Dark Souls levels of difficulty.
>Turbo Turtle Adventure

>implying a board dedicated to pre-modern gaming cares about "dated" graphics

I hate to admit, Twilight Princess gave me a few problems, and I'm still having to consult a guide to figure out where to go after clearing the Arbiter's Grounds.

I beat every retro Zelda without a guide. And all these underage newfags go on bragging about how TP is the "easiest" game in the series. Am I this out of touch?
