I've only been going for super 5-star rated OMFG GREATEST GAME EVER!!!!!s reccomended by the reviewer whores and I've been disappointed every... single... time!

Gradius Galaxies:

I forgot that Gradius games were this fucking SLOW. Cho Ren Sha 68K has truly ruined me for these types of games. Not to mention making maze levels that kill you if you pick the branch that leads to an off-screen dead end are gay. The music would have been considered shitty on the original NES.
Jesus, who gave GBA Gradius five stars? I own it too, but the best review I've seen for it was a 75%.

Other than rumors of a River City Ransom sequel in the works, are there ANY good games for the GBA other than Advance Wars 2?
The new River City Ransom game is actually a remake, although it seems to have a lot of new features.

-The Castlevania games are all good. The newest one is too short, but it's alright while it lasts.
-Wario Land 4, if you're looking for a platformer.
-If you liked Final Fantasy Tactics you ought to consider Tactics Ogre.
-I keep hearing good things about Fire Pro Wrestling, although I've never played it.

My own rule of thumb is to avoid any GBA game that can be played on an SNES emulator.
