welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
Game Boy Advance games for this list
we’re sticking to one game per franchise
and we’re also excluding ports of NES
and SNES games so if your favorite isn’t
on this list then check out those lists
to see if they made it there number 10
Final Fantasy Tactics advance the first
game between Nintendo and Square Enix
following the two companies infamous
split in the late 90s tactics advanced
follows the story of a group of kids in
the real world who find a book that
recreates their reality into a final
fantasy world the game’s turn-based
combat system takes a lot into
consideration if only limited by the
fact that the battles have a referee
that limit what abilities you can use
yeah screw that guy number 9 Fire Emblem
another turn-based strategy game on the
list it’s not going to be the last after
the success of super smash brothers
melee fans were left to wonder what all
the fuss was about with Fire Emblem
the West’s first taste of the series
came with the Game Boy Advance notably
bringing on the notion of perma death
where if a character dies in battle
they’re gone for good unless you restart
the whole thing choose wisely planning
carefully number eight The Legend of
Zelda the Minish Cap did you ever want
to learn the story about how link got
his hat well neither did we but
apparently it was a big deal read conned
into this case he started off with a hat
that was also a talking bird that goes
by the name of Islam just so happens to
have the ability to shrink link down to
tiny size and explore the tiny world
where the pea curry lived as the rest of
the gameplay well it’s a Zelda game
boomerangs and hook shots you know video
number seven Mario and Luigi superstar
saga a quirky RPG starring the famous
plumbing duo superstar Saga featured a
combat system that’s determined by
precise button presses rather than
waiting to get hit after Princess
Peach’s voice is stolen Little Mermaid
style
it’s up to the Mario Brothers to venture
to the bean bean Kingdom to retrieve it
highlights include peaches voice bubbles
that are literally explosive we did
mention it’s quirky right number six
Mario Kart Super circuit the first title
of the premium series to appear on a
handheld console Super circuit wasn’t
going to let the system limitations get
in the way of an awesome game allowing
for players to play off one cartridge
fantastic track design and the ability
to unlock all the tracks from the s’
nest version made this game a must-have
for any GBA owner number five pokemon
ruby sapphire and emerald generation
three started with a shock to pokey fans
since they had to start their
collections all over again as much as we
loved the remakes of the original games
were giving the nod to the adventures in
the new region which featured a more
in-depth story than its predecessors
which differentiated depending on which
version you had
oh and you can now fight two on two
battles for double the strategic depth
number for Metroid Fusion
the long-awaited continuation of the
Metroid saga this game see samus’s
actions in Metroid 2 come back to haunt
her as her genocide against the
Metroid’s has allowed for an even
deadlier parasite known as the ex to
emerge with its natural predator now
extinct after contact with the new
species leaves her suit with weakened
armor she heads to a zoology Research
Station now overrun by the ex to take on
her most dangerous foe yet herself
you
number three Advance Wars like Fire
Emblem advanced was the West’s first
taste of this turn-based strategy series
coming from the Famicom Ward series in
Japan however unlike Fire Emblem this
game gave a much more user-friendly
approach to managing your armies
ad in a competitive multiplayer feature
that only needed one system and advance
wars push to the envelopes in countless
directions
number two Golden Sun and Golden Sun the
lost age Golden Sun was an RPG with a
story so massive it had to be split into
two games most notable was the magic
system based around the elements that’s
used for both battles and puzzle solving
as well as finding elemental creatures
called de Jin to boost your powers the
two games are listed together because
once you’ve finished the first one you
can transfer your save data to the
second carrying over all your items and
abilities that you’ve collected
essentially making the two games one big
adventure before we advance to number
one let’s take a look at the other games
that we had in our pockets
number one castlevania aria of sorrow
and it’s a Konami title that takes out
the top spot on in kendo system with
arguably one of the best titles in the
series right alongside Symphony of the
Night
unlike other Castlevania games this one
takes place in the future and features a
nicely executed plot twist that we’re
not going to spoil here
the game’s biggest draw the ability to
steal enemy souls for unique abilities
making each replay different and
addictive in an attempt to collect them
all
there’s a lot of great gameboy advance
games so it’s likely that some of your
favorites didn’t make the list so let us
know what yours are and for more
