Gameboy is still an amazing handheld to this day! It’s puzzle and pinball games are what really kept me playing and wearing out the batteries when I wasn’t busy trying to be the very best (like no one ever was) with Pokémon.
I just wanted to leave a comment here that your video is chalk full of actual hidden gems. So many of these kinds of videos put things like TMNT III, Trip World, Wario Land, stuff that is relatively well known. This is such a breath of fresh air to see some new games that aren’t covered frequently.
Actually, one of the recurring "basic" enemies in the "Kirby" series bears a strong resemblance to the "Trax" tank, so you weren't too far off the mark. Also, stumbled across "Amazing Penguin" when helping my at-the-time brother-in-law clean his house. He said I could keep it, and I had a decent amount of fun with it. Thanks for putting it on the list. :3
Mole mania was amazing when I was a kid. It was one of the 4 gameboys games my mother bought me, next to tarzan, pokemon yellow, and kirby pinball. Unfortunately I never ended up beaten the game.
My mom bought me a Gameboy when I was about 7 and she bought us Speedy Gonzalez and was the only game for a solid 2 years before getting Pokemon red and blue. Honestly the best platformer I've played and it brings nostalgia every time I think about the Gameboy
I was really happy to see Quarth get mentioned, I love the game and it's one of my favorite Game Boy games. I never hear anyone bring it up, so I was excited to see it
I think Great Greed should defintely be on the list. When virtually my entire Gameboy game collection was thrown out by mistake in 99 it was by far the hardest game to replace of the ones I wanted back.
08:18: I wondered what became of the kid in Gokiburi Buster. Glad to see he was inspired by the brave heroes who have their lives to save his neighbourhood.
I'm not worried about moles, because I've got a few dozen Invisible Mole Detectors, and...oh shoot, I've been had... Still, at least I've got my Magic Beans!
Although, with Faceball, it would have been more miraculous to have 16 friends with Faceball 2000 in the first place. (It is a fun game, but I never knew anyone else who owned a copy.)
I tried to beat Faceball2000. At the time, as its not specified, i presumed it was something like 100 levels, and while i remember there were codes to start later on (up to 30 i think), I realized a game winning run would require finding as many powerups as possible in earlier levels, to get to the later levels in the most powered up state possible. After lots of scouting and having planned out my route, it was going swimmingly. I was up to the late 60s.. and.. the screen started getting dim. I realized i couldnt even put fresh batteries in and there was nothing i could do. I was never able to work up the motivation to tackle that chore again, it having taken something like 6 hours of tense play.
That's interesting! So much mystery surrounding this game... has more than 4 players actually been achieved?.. is it even beatable with standard batteries? Haha love it.
i bought mole mania by chance at target as a kid and LOVED THAT GAME ! it was lost over the years. then i looked up a cartridge on ebay it was $400 !!! bummer on so mang levels.
Now these beautiful hidden gems went up in price lol cuz we make these videos lol 😅 great games I was checking out the price cuz I love my gameboy ❤ wow track is at $80 cad lol love the Mole game ❤ I have bubble ghost so that ❤1 gem down 😊

I loved Revenge of the Gator growing it. It's great to see it getting some love 😊

Revenge of the Gator was so good! Preferred it to the also good Kirby Pinball.
Kirby Pinball… Revenge of the Gator… Rollerball… those Hal Laboratory guys know how to make a good pinball sim.
Had Bubble Ghost on a 32 in 1 cart when I was a kid and remember it being a highlight!

Mole Mania is a FANTASTIC game. Love it to bits.

Absolutely underrated title, and I wish we had more puzzle shmups like it

Final Fantasy Adventure, was probably one of my all time favorite GB titles.

Bubble Ghost was great, wish I still had it.
That penguin game is a version of another game made waaaay back in 1981 called amidar .. both very good games.
Trax actually had a cameo as a regular enemy in Kirby Super Star.
I remember Revenge of Gator and Bubble Ghost!
Truly fascinating
Its still hard to belive that just recently mc donalds released a game for the GBC
You forgot Super Hunchback! That game was awesome!
These games amazing.
I love Amazing Penguin, so I’ll like this video!
I completely forgot about Quarth!
Has Qarth been released on anything else? Because that sounds like a lot of fun and I'd love to play.
