Most famous are the pokemon games of course but the SaGA games (final fantasy legends in US) games are well received. Never played them myself but I have heard the legemd of the river king games ares good.

Dragon quest III on snes is such a phenomenal remake that playing the gbc is just crazy. DQI and DQII is a bit debatable but DQIII on snes is the absolute defi itive version.

Give Lufia a try. Haven't played it myself in awhile, but from what I recall, it was pretty decent. Definitely worth spending a few hours in to see if it's your thing. Unfortunately, this doesn't work with Super GameBoy. Just so you know.

I had this as a kid (I think I later traded it for MGS Ghost Babel and never got it back).
So much fucking content for a small GBC game, man.

river king is probably the best rpgs on there aside from those who really like pokemon.

The GBC has a crap ton more of content, what is not debatable is playing DQI-II on the SNES.
