There's countless hours of entertainment as you try to catch all the original pocket monsters, many of which feature designers still yet to be bettered. The games are beginner-friendly, with new trainers offered lots of help in catching and training critters.

It also offers some of the best visuals on GBA, including impressive summon effects. YouвЂ™ll explore caves, beaches, ice plains, deserts and tropical islands, discovering new cultures and conquering dungeons. It offers exhilarating freedom вЂ“ you can walk, fly and sail across the massive world of Weyard.

The sequel The Lost Age is even better than its predecessor. The graphics were absolutely gorgeous when the game made its debut, and the magical attacks particularly spectacular. You can even use magic to read peopleвЂ™s minds, move stones or reveal hidden paths. Fortunately, youвЂ™re armed with weapons, magic and elemental creatures in which to summon during battle. As usual, the forces of darkness are threatening the world and you and your friends are mankindвЂ™s last hope. Golden Sun is a massive, rich and engaging role-playing game that had Screen Play glued to the GBA's little screen. There are 20 courses and up to four friends can race against each other. You need extremely nimble fingers to get around the courses at speed, especially on the harder tracks that have loads of jumps and tight bends. Maximum Velocity reworked the classic Super Nintendo game with new vehicles and tracks, but offered the same blindingly fast, octane-fuelled action. ItвЂ™s the huge number of items and power-ups make the game fun, including the sneaky Warp Whistle, leaves and wings for flying, the frog suit for swimming underwater and the powerful Hammer Brothers suit. It's another superb platformer with eight enormous, secret-filled worlds.

Whether youвЂ™re trying to balance on a rotating platform, jumping on a Koopa to leave it naked without its shell, gobbling up enemies on YoshiвЂ™s back, or grabbing a cape to soar through a sky full of coins, it's hard not to squeal with delight.Д¬onfusingly, Super Mario Advance 4 was Super Mario Bros. Bursting with personality and great ideas, the game has secrets galore, a staggering 96 levels, ingenious puzzles, loads of baddies and of course the ability to ride on Yoshi. Super Mario Advance 2 is even better, it's Super Mario World from the SNES, which is still as brilliant as ever. Bombs can also be thrown at nasties, while platforms can be stacked to access higher areas. Rather than bouncing on enemies, you can pick them up and hurl them around the screen at other opponents. For the initiated, you can play as Mario, Luigi, Peach or even Toad, and each has different abilities. The first Mario Advance title was Super Mario Bros 2 from the NES. Hopefully we'll get the three other games in the series, too. Nintendo has already confirmed Yoshi's Island, which was sold as Super Mario Advance 3. There are countless enemies to battle and tricky puzzles to solve. Controls let you guide each brother separately or team up for super moves in an incredibly clever and novel combat system.

The plumber brothers team up with Bowser in this delightful, inventive and often hilarious role-playing game. Black Hole Rising was released in Australia in 2003 and would also be very welcome on the eShop, although it's more like a mission pack than a sequel. It's easy to learn but also deep and challenging, allowing intricate strategies. You take it in turns to charge your troops forward and fire weapons across 100 maps. You command the likes of cannons, tanks, planes and helicopters as you try to hold bases and wipe out your opponent. This was the first chance that many of us got to sample the charms of this fantastic strategy series, directing various ground, air and naval forces while battling a cunning enemy. Camelot tried to repeat the trick with Mario Tennis Power Tour, but it wasn't quite as engrossing. The game was surprisingly deep and incredibly addictive. Stroke, Skins, Match Play and Nearest-the-Pin contests are also available, and there are wackier modes as well. The story mode sees players chatting to locals, honing skills in tricky challenges, obtaining new clubs and entering tournaments. Like a role-playing game, players develop the skills of two aspiring golf pros. Hands down the biggest time sink on GBA for sports fans like me.
