GBC Hidden gems

[Ninjabba]

I recently bought a GBC game called Daikatana, yes a GBC game wearing the name of that dreadful shooter.

 

But lo and behold, this game is actually pretty awesome! A Zelda-like adventure game, bit more linear, but for a chance about future Japan with samurais 'n stuff. Also bats, but thats ok.

 

Now that its the only GBC game I have right now (I play it on my GBA SP), I was wondering what other good GBC games are out there that don't have Mario, Zelda or Final Fantasy in their name.

i was going to mention Toki Tori, but looks like somebody beat me to it!

 

Also is the GBC version of Spy VS Spy, which is the same game as NES but some neat upgrades (nothing drastic, mostly new sets of crap to collect).

NHL Blades of Steel. It's an updated version of Blades of Steel that looks and plays just as awesome as the NES original, but this one has the actual NHL license. I think it has a little more challenge too. Great stuff!

Ah thanks for some fresh ideas. I'm personally a big fan of puzzle games, so Toki Tori should be right up my alley.

 

Got this 2nd hand shop nearby that has a ton of GB/GBC games for a few euros each.. gonna be fun browsing through their collection!

Forgot burgertime in bedrock, it's a little slow and you'd be better od with the old Gameboy Bergertime Deluxe, but it's still fun.
