these are the games that were most
memorable in four shades of green
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down the top 10 greatest
gameboy games
number 10 Mega Man 5
kicking off our list is the blue bomber
in his best handheld adventure the first
for megaman gameboy games were all
watered-down ports of their nes
equivalents
whereas number 5 was designed with
original levels and bosses each named
after the planets in the solar system
being made specifically for the system
gave this game an authentic experience
that was well to serve
number nine Metroid to return of Samus
this sequel to the NES game saw Samus
arrived on the Metroid homeworld of
sr388 with one goal in mind
the total extermination of all Metroid’s
the game was the first to introduce
samus’s gunship along with her popular
various suit that still used today it
also set the stage for the SNES epic
that was to follow number eight
Donkey Kong land 3 the Donkey Kong land
series as a whole was an amazing
technical achievement for the system
attempting to translate the existing
SNES experience to the underpowered
portable console managing great graphics
and tight all-round gameplay or giving
the nod to the third game in the
portable spin-off franchise that’s due
to being the best polished having the
most original levels and exclusive
mini-games
number seven Super Mario Land the first
Mario game to ever not be directed by
Shigeru Miyamoto Super Mario Land was
the platforming launch title for the
system that took Mario to exotic lands
with enemies never before seen and never
seen since it even through in-vehicle
levels just for good measure
honorable mention also goes to its
sequel which introduced Mario’s nemesis
the greedy yellow color schemes jerk
Wario number 6 final fantasy adventure
now don’t be fooled by the name this
game is actually the predecessor to
Secret of Mana known as mystic quest in
Europe it was marketed as a spin-off of
the Final Fantasy series this action RPG
pushed the system to its limits in terms
of how much you could pack into one
little cartridge it later received a
remake on the Game Boy Advance titled
sword of mana number 5
Donkey Kong this remake of the classic
arcade game was more than just a simple
redesign as Donkey Kong took Pauline
well beyond the construction site with
Mario and pursuit across more than 90
levels released to show off the ability
of the SNES a super Gameboy adapter this
platform puzzle game was the first to
display Mario’s acrobatic abilities
which would later go on to be a series
standard in his 3d adventures
number four Kirby’s Dreamland
the debut appearance of Nintendo’s cute
walking marshmallow it’s rather simple
gameplay made it an ideal
pick-up-and-play choice selling over
five million copies the game became an
instant classic among Nintendo fans
although it wasn’t until his sequel that
Kirby gained his now-famous power
absorbing abilities the roots were laid
here number three the legend of zelda
links awakening zelda games have always
been stellar hits on the respective
consoles and Link’s Awakening is no
exception
though the game was the first to omit
the title character along with the land
of Hyrule this game instead saw link
shipwrecked and washed ashore on a
mysterious island where the inhabitants
have no knowledge of the outside world
gorgeous 2d top-down gameplay along with
a beautiful yet tragic twist ending made
this game truly unforgettable
number two Tetris does this game even
need an introduction not only is it
arguably the best puzzle game of all
time but the Game Boy iteration is
possibly the best adaptation of the
series released as a tie-in game with
the system at launch it showcased a
deceptively simple pick-up-and-play
design while we didn’t always have time
for adventure games while out and about
everyone’s always got time for Tetris
before we unveil our top pick here are a
few honorable mentions number one
Pokemon red and blue
taking the top spot on our list is the
game series that became a phenomenon
that’s still popular to this day despite
being released at the end of the game
boy’s lifespan it’s single handedly
breathed new life into the system
selling over 32 million copies
it’s simply ludicrous amount of content
along with the added replay bonus of
trading and battling with friends made
it the game that no Gameboy owner could
live without
do you agree with our list which Game
Boy games drained your doublea’s dry for
more exciting top ten lists published
