Wario Land 3 is arguably the best handheld platformer that’s not a remake ever. It should have definitely been on the list especially over something like r type. Megaman Xtreme 2 is also a must have must play game as it is actually a different game for the series and not just a remake like megaman Xtreme was to megaman x.
*laughs in hundert euro bills* It's an awesome game and fun to play but owning it... not going to happen. I don't say that one could emulate it because you would have to own the original to make your own legitimate ROM copy... But... the game has... pirates in it, right?
*looks at my 3DS* dunno what the f you are talking about. It's not like that info is known since this video. Got it around 10 years ago, also cuz it wasn't released in my country so I was only able to afford it digitally legally!
Great list. But how in the actual heck are Wario Land 2 & 3 not on this list? Those games are so good and was one of the staples for the Game Boy Color.
I don't dislike Mario Tennis, but the GBC sport I loved more, was Mario Golf. Lots of skill required for both games, but there was a lot more fun to take on the 18 holes, again for the lowest score. Imo
I have R-Type Delta on the playstation, but i never knew about R-Type DX, it's surprising how many games slipped through the cracks, when it came to the gameboy color, which felt like a very short generation.
It was thanks to Iwata that Kanto was added the gold, silver, and crystal. Rip I think with his pasting, was one of the majority reasons why pokemon just isn't the same or good as it used to be anymore. The last truly good ones were B2/W2.
Resident Evil Gaiden is by far my favorite GBC game. Can’t believe how well they made RE game on that little thing. Great list. Agree with most but didn’t see my goat
Great channel! I feel like I just discovered something special! Even though the Game Boy Color's library is a bit weak, I would love to see some more GBC videos similar to your GBA videos... Like, "GBC games nobody talks about" or "Criminally underrated GBC games." Love your content!
You should mention warlocked for gameboy color, it's a RTS and it's one of the most insane games ever made on the system. Not to mention its very stunning taking full advantage of every color it can possibly muster.
To everyone wondering what the music is at 9:26, I spent an hour figuring it out. It's the song "Player Wins" from the original Gameboy Tetris. You're welcome 😂 ua-cam.com/video/uzXYphdtgVs/v-deo.htmlsi=eIsTda09NI2PRj3n
That was a _fantastic_ selection of GBC games to showcase. There are many many many games on the console I'd highlight, but these ones are pretty damn good.
@@flickering_wick Bro... you are the man. Thank you! Shoot, no wonder it was familiar. Game Boy - Tetris, I played it so much. But I got to be honest, I was thinking it's got to be some old RPG ending scene.
To be fair: You shouldn't buy Shantae for tge GBC as it's wa, too expensive. Rather get the 3DS-Download. Which for some reason doesn't let players access the Advanced Genie Room though... The Tinkerbat dance makes traversing the mountains near the end of the game way easier given you have to constantly switch between Monkey and Spider and the Tinkerbat is unifying almost animal abilities... 5:32 "Super Mario Bros Deluexe"? That's an interesting way to write "Deluxe". :P
1. Gargoyles quest (underrated platformer- sleeper) 2. Contra (great game not really a port) 3. Wario Mario Land games 4. MegaMan series 5. Kirby Dreamland 6. Bomberman gb (underrated) 7. Kid Icarus 8. Metroid 9. Link awakening 10. Bomberman pocket (cool idea)
"Mario Tennis Is Surprisingly A Deeper Rewarding Experience." I'd have to agree with you there, also with the future instalments it made things more interesting! 😄😁👍
So happy to see my favorite game of all time as #2. I fondly remember conquering it during a family road trip almost 20 years ago. I recently started replaying a ROM version, and all those old feels came right back. Definitely gonna check out some of these other titles. Excellent video. :)
Good list! This version of Mario Tennis doesn't get as much love as it deserves. By the way, what version of Lufia is that? Those don't look like the GBC graphics.
On his list the 3 games I would personally buy if their available on the 3DS store are Tetris DX, Super Mario Bros and Pokemon Crystal. Hopefully enough people will complain to Nintendo and they won't close the 3DS store.
It's nice that Super Mario, Metal Gear Solid, The Legend of Zelda, and Pokemon were the last four games listed, because they are such popular video game franchises it's hard to leave them out of a top 10 video! 👏😄😁👍
@@thatvideogamesshow Absolutely. It's just a bit too easy imo. Good that there are difficulty/overhaul hacks (I support the official games, but rom hacks are just so fun)
@@Kyouma. while I don't disagree, its worth noting that Whitney and Claire are probably regarded as the most iconic gym leaders in the whole series because of how... "difficult" they were. Honestly, I personally don't even remember any of the gyms in either Kalos or Unova.
Hey dude, just a suggestion, but, can you post the music you use in your videos? Like that last one, had no clue where its from, wanted to listen to it more, and checked the 'show more' and no go :'(.
Great idea man! Will do this going forward, can put links down below. The last song in this video was Tetris DX High Score if I remember correctly. Thanks for watching!
I have a suggestion, Top 10 Game Boy Advance Hidden Gems, Sigma Star Saga should be included in GBA hidden gems, the game was developed by WayForward who also made Shantae and is an RPG/Shoot em up hybrid with great visuals, lots of content on an 8mb cartridge and an interesting story.
It's really bothering me that I recognise the track used at the very start of this video but can't name it. Can anyone let me know what track it is and what game it's from?
@referral madness thank you for your comment. I suscribed this channel due to the Hidden gems of the differents platforms. But I wanted to write a comment in Spanish because nobody want it XD
Solid list but I really don't know why you'd recommend Super Magnifying Glass Bros DX whose original and superior experience you can already get on another system and readily available on a variety of devices through emulators, instead of the actual Game Boy exclusive and Game Boy tailored Wario Land series. The original for the Game Boy or part II or III for the GBC, they're all incredibly good.
@@markasscop LA is undoubtedly great, but personally, I think Oracle saga surpasses that. But that's just my humble opinion. Btw, what was the "frustrating" part of about the oracles? Sure, collecting all the rings wasn't easy, but it's nowhere near frustrating as WW, where you have to take pictures of all enemies, and you have to find the fish in all the maps (49, I think), and just going from point A to point B on a ship was insanely frustrating. And let's not even get to the salvaging, which was frustrating in a whole new level. Even collecting pokemons in 1st gen is more frustrating than collecting all the rings in oracles.
@@michaelsong5555 seasons itself felt loke a slog to play through, some annoying mini quests that ruin the pacing like sneaking behind rosa in subrosia, and the story was horridly bare bones, you meet din she gets kidnapped now go save her but really just navigating holodrum and constantly needing to stop to change the seasons just so it can change the landscape a bit for you to progress was very tiresome

A essentail part of owning a gamboy.........buy lots of batteries.
Haha should have put that on the list 😅
Or one set of rechargeable ones
Why? This system looks like it stinks by the way. The graphics are terrible.
i bet there were people that bought lots of batteries that the total amount spent on them throughout the years couldve been used for a nintendo switch
@@CheapJabroni this was mind blowing in the 90s

I just watched to see if you put Metal Gear on this list. I was not disappointed. GG
Such a great game! Thanks for watching.
Great list, but why using the smooth enhancement when showing the games? That doesn't correctly represent how they actually look.
I agree, you're ruining the look of these games.
agreed. makes the games look terrible.

Great GBC game list.
I like that he went straight in
1. Gargoyles quest (underrated platformer- sleeper)
2. Contra (great game not really a port)
3. Wario Mario Land games
4. MegaMan series
5. Kirby Dreamland
6. Bomberman gb (underrated)
7. Kid Icarus

Shante is not a must own game as it's pushing over 300 loose last time I checked.

3:10 "For those not familiar with Tetris.." Huh
What kind of gameboy color do you have!? That back light screen is not an ags 101 it looks bigger!?
Just a standard one mate, it's not back lit. Just had my lights I use for videos in front of it to light it up nicely =)
Dragon Warrior 3 is a great one indeed
You have great taste!
Shantae looks like a 16 bit demon sword
Try buying a shantae copy on gbc ahah, so expensive it's ridiculous
what game are you playing at the very beginning of the video?
That is Link's Awakening
#1-6: all 6 of the original main pokemon games
#7-10: whatever the hell else you want
You got a point there haha
Wrong but aight
You may want to increase the volume of your voice cause the music is the same volume and makes it hard to hear you
Solid list but I really don't know why you'd recommend Super Magnifying Glass Bros DX whose original and superior experience you can already get on another system and readily available on a variety of devices through emulators, instead of the actual Game Boy exclusive and Game Boy tailored Wario Land series.
