Araven's Top 10 Favorite GBA Games

[ZZombies4Fun]

When your such an RPG fan how can you not put any of the FF port or Tales of Phantasia in there?

[cannebinoid]

Who can't agree, Golden Sun is like the greatest game I've ever played?

[Martinuslr]

Great list!, and there is a lot of great games for GBA the rpg king in my opinion.

If they had done a version of chrono trigger or chrono cross there would be no doubt about it.

[ShadowILussion]

what no gameplay?

[pokemikevanbeek]

but too bad lunar legend is not in your top 10 well everyone has other opinions

[pokemikevanbeek]

i must say you have a very good taste in games

[87Kefka]

Ah very nice pick for #1. I agree with you. GS The Lost age is one of my favorites

[Grnvolpe]

Kirby Nightmare in Dreamland is just pure fun

[VolkeSatino]

YES YES YES!!!!! To the Top GAME FINALLY

[VolkeSatino]

YES YES YES!!!!!

[YXYCHAOSxECHO]

dude i remember when i bought summon night!! i completely forgot about it now but you reminded me omg!

[RicoLama]

golden sun: lost age 1st place.

totally earned it...

[VTVINO]

whats the ending music?

[Nva21]

Hadn't heard a single game in this list. Shit list waste of time watching

[colinDESU]

Your taste in music, sound, games are excellent. Great editing. I will subscribe immediately after that. I have a feeling that if I knew you in real life, we would be good friends. I'm curious now if your music taste is similar to mine as well.

[lee4life06]

Golden Sun DS !! GETTIN IT ON THE 29th of this month!!!

[nubcase4fun]

YE GG GOLDEN SUN!

[mastax1234]

ah man i miss my good old gba sp. but i sold it for 60 bucks

[dittocopys]

wee

[dis1sabad1]

mother 3 is one i recomend if you like turn based rpgs pk love forever

[mariovszelda99]

GO MINISH CAP!

[professionalpoliwag]

Did you ever play Castlevania Aria of Sorrow If not that will change your list

[MrGoldPickle]

All these RPG's and no Pokémon?

[126kyoko]

all of us saw golden sun or golden sun 2 coming

[Teamroc16]

I have to agree with neo your taste in games is unique and great thx for the great vid.

[blackZ34all]

how about some gameplay?

[38GencFenerli]

None of these people have Goku's Legacy 1 & 2 nor Sword of Mana....

Weird...

[16Dolphins]

You like RPG's don't you

[314Marvin]

@16Dolphins Rpgs are one of the best (maybe even THE best) Types of games EVER

[GoldensunGSD]

Golden sun and Fire Emblem FTW~!!

[VaSoapman]

YAY Shining Force!

[PrinceThrons]

My favorite is Super Mario World

[dicemrx]

i have a question. is their any reason to beat golden sun 1 before i play the lost age if ive already beaten it? one of my freinds said something about being able to use a code romt he end of golden sun 1 for the lost age so thats why im playing it again. but its getting kind of boring.... do i really have to beat it before playing the lost age?

[hawkblade73]

@dicemrx no, you can transfer your leves, djin, items and equipment to Golden Sun 2 if you completed the first one.

[Lreyski]

I like most is the golden sun 2...

[Vkroar]

in my OPINION kirby in dreamland was REALLY FUN and the powers were AMAZING but the game was really easy and short

[Chriscornell0019]

heck yes man. kirby nightmare in dreamland was MY favorite.

[HenryFeefan]

i think Fire Emblem, the one with Lyn and HEctor and Eliwood was best. agin its my opinion :P

[Happytreefriendsfan3]

that what you are talking about is "fire eblem"

on GBA 2 fire eblem games came out:

fire eblem and fire eblem:the sacred stones

[HenryFeefan]

on DS fire emblem :shadow dragon came out, and yes i loved fire emblem.

[Happytreefriendsfan3]

there are also two advance wars games on GBA

advance wars and advance wars 2 black hole rising

and 2 games on NDS wich i cant remember the name,fire eblem is same as advance wars its only that in advance wars you are leading wars with machines and in fire eblem you are in XV century and you are playing with knightes,thiefes etc

[fededx]

I'm so glad to see Fire Emblem and the amazing Mazes of Fate made your list...

[afroboy11]

no surprise golden sun is at the top of your list

[halfblack90]

wat is the name of that music at the end of ur vid

[darla620]

Oh, yes, and I also LOVE the Super Mario Advance series.

[darla620]

My favorites are: (in no particular order)

Wario Ware Twisted

Mario Kart: Super Circuit

Any of the Zelda games

Metroid (Classic NES port)

Yoshi's Island

Mario Tennis Power Tour & Mario Golf Advance Tour

Donkey Kong Country (all 3)

Sonic Advance (any of them except the glitchy Sonic Genesis for GBA)

That's all I can think of besides Kirby: Nightmare in Dreamland and Kirby & The Amazing Mirror.

[Happytreefriendsfan3]

gotta love wario ware twisted with its addicting gameplay

i also like how you shake to play some mini games

you can also unlock LOTS of stuff and it has some old school mini games (like one mini game where you are pit from kid icarus and you kill plants or the boss level in 9-volts microgames where you play in a mario level)

[HenryFeefan]

umm i know what fire emblem is about....hence why i said i loved that game

[guyana471137]

fire emblem blazing sword is my favourite and golden sun

[kisler0]

Golden Sun 2 is awesome.

[k4e86]

dynasty warrriors had a gba game . i never knew but koei makes a lot of those awsome war games

[babyboy1096]

yea they do you should play the game its awsome

[JesterMan900]

Great List. Shining Force Is Deff. In My Top Ten.. No Five.. no well Idk.

[Happytreefriendsfan3]

awesome list my list would be(no numerical order) metroid zero mission sonic advance series super mario advance series metroid fusion advance wars donkey kong country series kirby nightmare in dreamland warioware inc final fantasy 1+2 dawn of souls zelda a link to the past+four swords

[Mangaholic98]

i personally enjoy dbz advance adventure myself

[ChuckRoast14]

I wasn't expecting Dragon Ball Advanced Adventure. Nice to see such an underrated game up there.

[Blackoutbacker54]

awesome list bro i played the shit outa that dragonball game! and ill check out sum of the rpgs

[Hoontae]

Those games all look good but seriously i've only played metroid and golden sun lol. I'll give Summon night a go.

[Power976431]

I like this list beats the lists ive seen so far (except the one with castlevania in it) good job

[ugk771]

thats right kirby should be in there XD kirby is like the best in my world

[neotankgun]

dude you have great taste in games. have you tried summon night 2 it is also very good, it has a good story. fire emblem is good as well. here is a similar game yggdra union: we'll never fight alone

[Artificialraven]

Yeah actually I like the 2 Summon Night games alot, they're pretty fun. Fire Emblem rocks too but I don't care much for Yggdrasil Union, that game with it's weird card system confuses the shit outta me.

[xantyleonhart]

@Artificialraven

I like summon night 1 best, because summon night 2 is just like a copy of the 1st one, the story just got too predictable and boring because it has way too many things in common. Still a good game. And i would put FFIV too in that rank. Gba remake is very good, specially the extras after you end the game, it gives more "substance" to each character's story and personality. The one i liked the best was kain's story, and his epic fight against dark bahamut ALONE. JUST AWESOME!

[PixieStixxandAdderal]

@Artificialraven If you like Summon Knight, have you tried Tales of Symphonia? I see similarities in their battle systems, although Symphonia is WAAAAY slower-paced in battle. Still the first entry in my favourite RPG series, though.

[Emerald2Angel]

minish cap would have been my second choicec also 1st for me tho lol would be four swords X3 awsome list tho man

[xiaogal]

Yay, Dynasty Warrior rocks! Play it on PSP too!

[DarkraiDude43]

i find this list very cool

[GoogooTer]

where tha fuck is banjo, mario, and doom 1 and 2 WTF ur list kinda sucks dude no offense

[HasuroOfTheTwilight]

his opinion not everyones googooter

[Palobo05]

grow up

[Gymjim101]

ive played bto the golden sun idk wy everyone makes them number 1 i think they suck ass ive played through them almost to the end D: and they suck to me

[koollan]

i konw golden sun sucks dick

[mario41001]

What about golden sun 1 that one was pretty good

[HessianX]

The golden suns and Shining Force are the best ones definitely for GBA. Shining Force was one of my favorites on genesis.

[jerpengame123]

i hv all those game except the maze one i didnt bother to buy it when it came out cause it looked retarted i would hav chose summon night 2 and instead of minish cap four swords and 1 more thing kirby amazing mirror pwneds but over all nice choice

[havesexwithcows]

no final fantasy? :(

[Artificialraven]

I prefer the originals over the GBA remakes. Final Fantasy 6 is ranked pretty high in my SNES top 10.

[NintendoGuyX]

DragonBall advance is so underated, its the best game of GBA on my list

[Renkay141]

I played alkl summon nights!! the 1st 2nd and the 3rdwell is in japenese(the 3rd one) and firemblem and shiningforce and camelot lolz but I think none of u guys care anyway NICE games

[TheDudeInMyCar]

GS:the lost age was the hardest gba game i've ever played,but by far the BEST.And kirby is da cutest :3

[modreap]

Golden Sun FTW :D

[Fuelsterister]

i just wanted to ask no offence to ppl that like this game but what is it that ppl like in castelvania games?

[rough143]

out of all the top ten list from other people i say you know the best games. Good WOrk!

[obiwankenalbie]

I know it's strictly your opinion, but why Dynasty Warriors?

[Artificialraven]

I wish there was some amazing reason why but there isn't. I just had tons of fun playing it plus I'm a fan of the Playstation 2 games as well.

[funkgaas52]

have you played warriors:orochi ?

[maksusername]

it's awesome to see that someone else likes "The Sacred Stones!"

Golden Sun the Lost Age rox too. Rok on!

[PoisonWaffles]

i like fire emblem the sacred stones :)

[Daneel123]

Wario ware twisted is one of the best gba games because it's got a sensor and more then 200 minigames + 150 games

[urukwind]

I dont know all the games of these would've been nice to have seen some of the games not only intros :P

[Artificialraven]

I was thinking about doing that but I got lazy lol.

[ToarbGaming]

Hey great list i agree with GS LA, SF ROTDD, Fire Emblem Sacred Stones, Zelda Minish Cap, Metroid Zero Mission. That was basically my list~

[351547351547]

dragon ball advance adventure is the best

[lifecansuck92]

GOLDEN SUN 1&2 FTW. :D

[Halo2isgay87]

summon night is such a great game

[lotlat]

hahahaha! summon night swordcraft story. you gotta love number 2 of summon night. same old TRANSFORM INTO ULTIMATE POWER MONSTER EARLY IN GAME!!!!!! but still gotta love summon night

[Sinoshao]

i basicly agree with your choices!

but i would like also to add "Harvest Moon"

[lark249]

my #1 is megaman battle network 6 cybeast falzar

but i also like all the other

megaman games.

[666warsaw999]

MEGAMAN BATTLE NETWORK where is it???

[jharristheyamyam]

bargain bin

[retardZX]

my #1 is megaman battle network 6 cybeast gregar

[IceStage777]

dude, Golden Sun: The Lost Age is my #1 too

watch my video if you want.

/watch?v=6KiMJM68Z34

[Artificialraven]

Dude, you should seriously post that as a video response :P

[IceStage777]

xDDDDDDD ok xP

[michaelhung6]

Golden Sun 2 is the best game ever!

[Paleb05]

Interesting choices for a top 10 list.

[Halo2isgay87]

i just got done beating summon knights its a fucking tight game

[killerk4321]

im sorry but i just dont like rpgs at all, i liked doom, worms world party, crash bandicoot, rayman and games like that

[tinymouse2]

RELLE wat about Zelda minish cap? gotta admit that i hate almost all other ones

[JamieWilmot]

Worms World Party on GBA was a terrible game.

Ok, I over-exadurated, lol. But although gameplay is similair to the original Worms, so many things have been took out and it seems almost like the game was un-finished.

[SeiferKai]

good list...i appreaciate that

summon knight

zelda

golden sun

and shining force was on the list

but no pokemon?

lmao

[goulden]

lol i only own #1 out of all of those

[Zega000]

golden sun....i thought so

[DutchShadow]

No Castlevania :O

Still a good list ;)

[evilorgoodness]

the summon night... is it a adventure game

[Artificialraven]

It's an RPG but the battles are 2d like Tales of Phantasia

[evilorgoodness]

ooo... cool... were can I find that game

[TStyle05]

Summon Night looks pretty much fun to me ^^

[Czooks]

Golden Sun is the best ^_^

[Czooks]

Yeah

[Jconnizle1234]

Damn right GS: The Lost Age is #1! THE best game for GBA ever.

[DeepVinicius]

i agreeeee sooo much.

[BlobbMonster]

lol i knew you would pick lost ages as #1, great game... nice choices.

[blueknight280]

they'res summon night 2!

[evilorgoodness]

Summon Night.... is it a adventure game

[blueknight280]

exatly my point..

[Dinopaterno22]

nice choosing :) great games

[CrimsonDragon24]

You had a few good games up there but most of those games looked pretty boring to me...now onto the video itself same problem as Devilboy's it was REALLY boring i think you should use gameplay clips instead of just the boring openings

[Artificialraven]

Yeah it would definatley be better if I did it like that. I'm just too lazy to put forth that much effort.

[CrimsonDragon24]

ahh maybe your next project you should just do little bits at a time when you're not busy then? that way you don't have to do it all at once and you end up with a better video

[retardZX]

the best gba games are megaman battle nettork games and the megaman zero games and megaman and bass

[CrimsonDragon24]

no one person has the right to say what the "Best" games are those are your favorites not "The Best"

[jthotshot]

thank u i love minish cap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kookoon]

i guess you like rpgs o_o

[defsoul69]

You never tried Super Robot Taisen OG2 for the GBA? That game is pure awesomeness.

[curtis7895123]

Shining Force,MY BEST!

[Saturos007]

Golden Sun definetly belongs at #1

[Kulio123]

ROCK ON #1!!!!

[Xommon]

When I saw you liked The Legend of Zelda. I'm like "YES!! THAT'S MY #1!!!" I think O_o

[Krystallwolvelt]

I've beaten Golden sun 1 but I quited with number 2 cause I got stuck anyway I got really far with the game anyway I must have been quite near the end. My top GBA games are in random order Metroid Fusion Metroid Zero Mission Metal Slug Advance Mario Kart Super Mario advance Doom Golden sun Sonic advance Zelda Minish cap Mario and Luigi: Super star saga

[coron1313]

My top 10 GBA games: 10. Super Mario Advance 3: Yoshi's Island 9. Mario Kart: Super Circuit (might be misspelled :P) 8. Sonic Advance 2 7. NES classic: Zelda 6. Zelda: The Minish Cap 5. Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 4. Metroid: Zero Mission 3. Doom 2. Zelda: A Link to the Past/Four Swords 1. Super Mario Advance 2: Super Mario World

[noodlez67]

lol good 10, mine is almost like urs

[Dentolux]

I've enjoyed watching your top 10 videos loads. If all goes well I hope to submit a video response with a top 10 of my own some time in the future.

[MetalDray86]

i like golden sun that game just kicks ass

[thesenuts07]

i agree. GOLDEN SUN......fuck yeah

[MetalDray86]

i beated the 1st golden sun easy as hell :P

[thesenuts07]

well yeah. the first one wasn't a challenge. and the second one wasn't exactly a challenge, but it requires slightly more thought. i beat the crap out of both

[MetalDray86]

same here i wonder if they have a 3rd one??

[thesenuts07]

if there is a god in heaven there will be a third one. nah, but i would like there to be a third one, even if it is just fighting alex or some crap. it could be on the DS or the Wii or something. but whatever it is on, it has to be badass

[MetalDray86]

ya it should xD

[Ravonox]

I really don't agree with FF tactics Advance. I mean the first tactical battle was with freaken snowballs. Its a mockery of Final Fantasy Tactics in my opinion of course. I mean if I was 12 then yeah it would have been a great game eh? I mean whats that all aboot? hahahaha

[BrodeurIsBetter]

I didn't play that much GBA but the Golden Sun games and Metroid Zero Mission were great. I am a big fan of Shining Force, but I never played the GBA port of the original.

[gantzers]

The Dynasty Warrior opening sounds like Power ranger on the snes. What surprises me is that you didn't have Final Fantasy Tactics Advance.

I don't play a lot of gba games but lemme pick the ones i like from the top of my head.

5. Tetris Worlds (XD)

4. FFIV

3. FFVI

2. FFV

1. FF Tactics Advance

That's all i can think of ^-^

[Artificialraven]

Well i really suck at the final fantasy tactics games, thats why i left that one out. and as for the final fantasies, i liked the Playstation versions of 4,5,6 better because of the bonus stuff you can look at from the main title. Once you beat the games of course. Not to say i didn't have fun playing 4,5,6 Advance though.

[Ravonox]

Best part was the ending cause of the music from aphex if my memory serves me.
