Some of my favorites have been the Game & Watch Gallery series spanning GB,GBC, and GBA. The games are perfect for portables and IMO this is how you do a classic compilation, offer both the original and an updated version. My favorite of the series would probably be #2 for GBC.

Montezuma's Return for the GBC is a VERY faithful sequel to the old school Motezuma's Revenge. I think that MR is THE game the hooked me on gaming for life so getting a very good sequel many years later was a very nice little gift. Sorry, I couldn't find a pic.
Another wonderful Neozeedeater classic console thread. My top GB picks are:
Metroid II
SML 1 and 2
Operation C
R-TYPE
Kirby's Adventure
Battletoads
Good call. I think Game & Watch games were the first portable games I played(or maybe some Mattel sports games). They're perfect for quick fixes and the compilations are great especially since actual G&W games are often quite expensive to collect.Quote:

I just happened to have a pic of it on my hard drive because I was going to put it in a quiz before but never did. I'm a huge fan of the original game.Quote:

Enlighten me. I play the SMS rev a lot on my PSP.Quote:

If your favorite old school portable game didn't let you listen to Black Sabbath's Iron Man while you fought a boss battle, then it wasn't good as mine:

:D
It has double the amount of levels as the arcade plus two new bosses and password save. Plus you need to find hidden items to beat the game. Here is a list of cheats if you're interested - http://raccoonlad.topcities.com/bb-faq.htmlQuote:

Ninja Gaiden was a great port and that reminds me of my top portable beat 'em up of that time: Game Boy Double Dragon. It played better than any other home port. I like it more than the GBA remake too.Quote:
