I just bought the nes edition of the gameboy advance sp and am going to buy tetris and the original pokemon games, what other awesome classics I should buy for it?
Also, are there any good donkey kong, harvest moon and animal crossing games for the gameboy.
Also, is Duke Nukem Advance a legit thing and is it any good?
Probably going to buy the original fire emblem.

You people make me feel so old.
Also are you looking for GB & GBA games or just GB?

GB
Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Duology
Shantae
Revelations: The Demon Slayer (The soundtrack is fucking amazing)
Super Mario Land

GBA
Mega Man Zero series
Metroid: Zero Mission
Final Fantasy V Advance
Final Fantasy VI Advance
Riviera: The Promised Land
Yggdra Union: We’ll Never Fight Alone
Legend of Zelda, The: A Link to the Past & Four Swords
Donkey Kong Country series.

Also watch out for fake Pokemon games if you're buying online. eBay has several of them and many people fall for them since they're almost identical in design.

Thanks, I'm looking for both, also don't worry about the fake Pokemon, I know what's real and whats not, there seems to be a lot of chaos black on their ATM, that's definitely not real.

I'm not talking about that, I'm talking about fake cartridges of real Pokemon games.
Take these two images for example
Fake Emerald
Fake LeafGreen

They look like the real thing, but they're not. I suggest seeing if your used video games store has some in stock.

Yeah this is a bad thing, someone I knew had a fake Pokemon Ruby, the cartridge wasn't even red lol

As for Pokemon games, I recommend getting Crystal, Emerald and either Fire Red or Leaf Green. All you really need for Pokemon imo.

Edit: Also, I know you're buying physical games but look at these lists for most downloaded gb/gbc and gba roms, just to get an idea of which games are worth getting

Buy Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones. Imo, it's very good.

I'm sorry, but seeing a thread where it's titled Classic Gameboy Games and then talks about GBA SP reminds of this awful, awful T-Shirt

Why not just Emulate the games? Of course, if you don't have a controller for your computer, playing games like Mario might be a bit problematic.
