Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga
Metroid Fusion and Zero Mission

To tell the truth the first time i played fusion I hated it, but I put a GBA emulator on my psp not long ago and I've been playing it a lot lately and im starting to think its the best metroid I've ever played. Well behind metroid II that game rapes.

I can't believe everyone hasn't played those. Best RPGs to ever be on a portable, imo.

...I missed one? DAMMIT.

Also, Golden Sun 1 and 2 were easily my favourite games for a long time when they came out. I loved them to pieces.

Yea. There is the one simply called Fire Emblem in the US, it's the one with Eliwood, Lyn and those guys.

Then there is the sequel: Fire Emblem: The sacred Stones, where you are a brother and sister.

And then there is Fire Emblem: Fuuin no Tsurugi, a japan only release that came out before the game known as simply Fire Emblem. In this one you play as Roy, the son of Eliwood who is born at the end of Fire Emblem.

It's Japan only but there is a nearly complete fan translation out there, the only things missing is basicly the intro movie, but since that is an actual movie I don't see how they would go about translating that one.

Once you apply the translation you can do whatever you want with the ROM and it will retain the translation, I even got it on my DS.

I got a lot of mileage out of Dr. Mario / Puzzle League, Super Mario Advance 4 (SMB3), and both Wario Ware games.
