          konami games worht looking at:

          castlevania 3 (i think)
          contra/probotector
          parodius
          gradius
          goemon
          pop n twinbee

          Rtype DX is good.

          some good capcom games:

          zelda oracle of ages and season are both by capcom
          I think theres a gargoyles quest game on the GBC
          megaman games especially megaman extreme 1 and 2
          bionic commando


          also, you should check out cannon fodder. it's amazing on gbc and includes an fmv movie!

            Any more vertical shooters?That gbc screen seems ideal,any idea how to squeeze a afterburner kit in a gbc?

              not sure about the afterburner question, but I do know that the gbc was remarkably devoid of vertical scrolling shmups. the only one that springs to mind is 1942...

                Ganbare goemon: Hoshizorashi Dynamites Arawaru!! (another action based one with inpact robot fights too)

                  My collection stands at 7. I reckon it's pretty hard to find games in mint condition that are actually any good.

                  Anyway, Mario Golf & Mario Tennis are both superb. GBC version of Mr.Driller is also another favourite of mine.

                    Mr Driller on GBC is pretty cool but the lack of a battery save kinda ruins it.

                      I hate Wario Land 3, the puzzles are way too challenging for me.

                        You what?!? It's awesome, like super metroid with wario.

                        I didn't find it too challenging and loved the exploring, backtracking nature of the game. I wish the advance version had followed the formula of WL3.

                          Have to agree that the Mario tennis and Mario Golf game's are both superb, and link up with their Nintendo 64 counterpart's via the 64GB pack.

                            I prefer Super Mario Land 3 - Wario Land and Wario Land 4 which are more conventional. Maybe I must retry Wario Land 3, I was young when I tried it.

                              Mario Tennis played the slowest, dullest game of tennis I've ever seen in a video game. If I remember correctly it took ages to run your opponent around and leave an open court, it was also near impossible to hit a winner from the back. Basically you just had to use drop shots all the time.

                              Yuck. I don't know why I bothered to finish the main adventure mode.
