Overlooked Game Boy Games

- The Game Boy was an amazing portable that offered many timeless classics. With its diverse library of games, many great titles got overlooked. In this video, I show five games that did not get a lot of attention in the library that were different and worth playing.

"Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure" is a hidden gem that is usually really cheap... it plays like Donkey Kong... a lot of fun.
Robocop and I buried the hatchet long ago, so seeing a robot of us mashed together doesn't bother me.
LOL!
Omg! 😂
At last Game Boy games ;-) I'm at 583 games for the original Game Boy and have to say there are a lot of underrated games. Asterix, Avenging Spirit, Battle of Olympus, Boxxle, Dr Franken, Drop Zone, Fire Fighter, Kwirk, Parodius. Qix, Speedy Gonzales, Star Hawk and many others!!!!!!
It's a lot of fun and in my top 3 favourite consoles of all time :-)
Those look like some great games John. Thanks for the suggestions, also Merry Christmas to you and your family!
Haven't played it as an adult but I remember having good times with the gameboy version of Home Alone as a kid haha
No school like old school, bud.
Gameboy will always be my favorite console.
I played a lot of Choplifter 2 when i was younger - great GB game!
I totally love "Fortress of Fear" - the Music is stuck in my head forever!
Dexterity is my favorite game boy game of all time! I have been looking through Game Boy RUclips videos hoping someone would mention it!! Can’t believe you have it, such a hidden gem! Also had Solomons Club growing up and loved it
John, thanks for all your content. Wishing you and your Family a Merry Christmas.
your videos make me smile
Those games look rad. Remember a platforming game called Tail-Gator? I liked that one on Gameboy.
You could make more of these videos, there are ton of underrated gameboy games out there.
"Flippul" is a fun puzzle game that I just remembered a few months ago.
Had Solomans Club and Dexterity since I was a kid! Great games!
Love gameboy games! Do more gameboy videos in the future.
Thanks man for you suggestions!
Lukas Ringlstetter no problem
Try these Game Boy titles. King of the Zoo (Penguin Wars. Japanese title) Ghostbusters 2, Robocop, Qix, Lock 'n Chase, Kirby's Block Ball, Monster Max, Mario Picross, Burger Time Deluxe, BC Kid 2, Revenge of the Gator Pinball, Kirby's Pinball Land, Double Dragon, Avenging Spirit (fantastic game where you play a ghost who can possess enemies and use them to discover who stole your girlfriend and you waking up as a ghost) Balloon Kid (Balloon Fight sequel, plays like Joust)
Great video man. I'm looking into collecting for the Game boy now actually.
Nice selection of games. I love hearing about titles I missed out on. Thanks for vid John.
Nobunaga's Ambition is a somewhat hidden strategy gem worth looking at.
Literally the last GameBoy game I bought at Toys R Us. Only $9.99 new.
Sweet! I was hoping you would cover this topic
Great video! These all look good to me, will have to made them to my list!
Awesome. More Game Boy videos please! One game you might enjoy is CATRAP (also known as PITMAN).
Cool Video . ..I'll be getting a Super Gameboy soon to play some game
There are some great shmups on the Gameboy too including Gradius, Gradius II, R-Type, R-Type II & Parodius. All great titles for the Gameboy:)
Yea I spent long hours playing Nemesis (Gradius) on the Gameboy.
Nemesis 2 isn't a Gradius port, it's its own game. A decent one at that.
Checkout Solarstriker, Battle Unit Zeoth and Trax.
I still break out my Gameboy color now and again to play Solomons club , one of my all time favourites
Excellent video! I never had a NES or SNES growing up, Gameboy was my only console so I love collecting for it. Always great to see more games to keep an eye out for.
In most games you can readily tell that the GameBoy only allowed 3 shades of gray for sprites with one color reserved for transparency. Choplifter cleverly made the sky a uniform white canvas so they could design their sprites with holes where they want them to be white on screen (e.g. the tank). That gave it an edge in visual fidelity.
thumbs up for having them all in plastic cases!
I played Dexterity a lot when I was about 12 yrs. old. I had that game. Solomon's Club is high on my GB wish-list!
Mole Mania is a hidden Gameboy gem actually made by Nintendo
Hey John, another gameboy classic i used to love was Kid Dracula, great game if you haven't checked it out its worth a look.
Also i have one more which springs to mind and thats Survival Kids a absolute must!
Fortified Zone was a childhood favorite of mine.
Dexterity was actually the fist game I got for the game boy not counting tetris as it was included with the system.
Thanks for showing in the beginning. I gotta pick these up when they come up for sale
Great video!! I love me some classic Gameboy. It was definitely worth the wait. Happy Holidays to you and your family.
Great video, John! These games are new to me, but they all look pretty fun! One that I always had a lot of fun with was Stop that Cockroach!
I too like the more off the beaten path games on the Gameboy. I have the staples of Tetris and Zelda, Donkey Kong, Paperboy I & II. I've also got Choplifter II. Gargoyles, Gargoyles Quest I & II ( II is a Japanese import). I also Love Turican and Oddworld Adventures. But the two games I never ever hear people talk about is Dr. Franken I & II. I just fell in love with those two games for some oddball reason. Thanks for another Great video and Happy Holidays to you and your loved ones!!
❤️ the Gameboy. Got a few of them. Ones been modded and it's amazing. The first console I started collecting for
Its worth it to collect games for it but mainly ones that you wish to play as well!
Yes more gameboy please 😀. Choplifter II brought back some fun memories. Cheers John 👍
Cave Noire, an incredible roguelite that was releeased 20 years before the genre becomes cool.
Great List! One game I love but almost nobody talks about is Adventures of Star Saver.
That Metal Masters game looks pretty cool, never heard of it before. I never had a GB so a lot of games outside of the big titles are all new to new. Heres some of my recommendations - Operation C, Balloon Kid, Bionic Commando, Ninja Boy, any of the Mega Man games, Motocross Maniacs, Bonk's Adventure, Nemesis, Gradius, Rolan's Curse 1 and 2, Sword of Hope 1 and 2, Final Fantasy Adventure/Legends - R-Type DX and Shadowgate Classic are both GB Color but the backwards compatible type (you can tell if they re a solid black plastic not the clear plastic)
I want to get the keychain sized gameboy and this list will be a great help! Thanks!
Loved all the games, so many hidden gems yet to be uncovered!!!
I'd say Solar striker is a good shmup for the GB
Made me want to play some gameboy
Im still collecting for the Game Boy :)
I am Like 223 Dude. Fortified Zone was definitely the GameBoy game I borrowed alot from my cousin. Ive never heard of Choplifter 2. I would play part 1 religiously in the Bowling Alley Arcade Room among other old school Arcade Games back in the day. I have the Rom and will play it every now and again. The chopper animations and combat on that version is just as good. I will definitely go looking looking for the Rom in a bit.
As far as GameBoy Games go. Try Ren and Stimpys Space Cadet Adventures lol.
solomons key is one my favorite games
Youre awesome sir
That's a cool little man cave ya got there, bud.
Just sit there with a bowl of popcorn, and watch some movies.
Gosh I waited forever for this video
I’m always blown away at the animation created on the limited hardware of the gameboy. Truly impressive.
Awesome! You have great taste in gameboy games!
These games are great!!
Solomon's Club is a great one. I'd say try Alien 3, it's actually the best of the titles that share the name and plays more like top-down Resident Evil than anything else. Probably the closest game to Alien Isolation in the series.
Dig Dug takes the classic and adds to it (sort of how Donkey Kong did), very unique and in glorious monochrome graphics. Also, Daffy Duck Marvin Missions or Spirou (a wonderful Europe import)
Happy to see Solomon's club on your list. It was my first GameBoy game (besides Tetris of course)
I really liked when you grabbed that fairy 🧚♀️
Mario Golf was unreal! A great, great game!
Thanks for the new video John. You're right, you are watched all around the world. I'm from Ukraine.
Are you interested in some USSR stuff? I've got some 'game and watch'' (ussr style. 'nu pogodi' and more) that i'd like to send you. Searching also for something more interesting for your cllection. Have any ideas?
I'll be paying all the shipping costs.
Great choices. I love Dexterity and Choplifter II.
Catrap and Super Hunchback are FANTASTIC overlooked titles as well. I assume you've played 'em already but you know...
Alright! Finally the gameboy! 👍
Give sword of hope a try john, it's a pretty awesome game if you like rpg.
You sound like Ralph from Wreck It Ralph ;)
Wooo more gameboy! ;)
I really love the original gameboy so much nostalgia. And theres somethin on the 8bit grafix so much creativity and imagination. Combined with the ost wow. Can't believe 30 years have pass.
Just started collecting GB this year and it's been super fun. Games are pretty cheap, plenty of hidden gems and hard to find games if you want, but super easy to pick up some quality games for cheap
have you played mole mania?
When I was young, I was alone at home for a weekend and just grabbed that game randomly at the store. And oh boy, it was a killer weekend. :-)
Avenging Spirit for Game Boy, as far as I know, is a direct port of an arcade of the same name, and I find curious that it wasn't ported to the NES or other console.
Love the Game Boy! It the first console that was mine exclusively. Most if the games I played were the big names, but I had a fun budget title called Radar Mission. It’s a submarine game with two modes: one is just like Battleship, and the second is a simple shooter. Still fun today!
Yes! The day has finally come. You should make some top 5 videos. Like your top 5 favorite games for each system or something like that. Would be interesting to hear your opinion.
I like the three Star Trek gameboy games. As a kid I didn't get to play much other than the well known games. Pokemon, Mario, Zelda. Now that I can buy my own games, I'm branching out.
Roland's Curse is one I grew up owning and loving. Outside of Links Awakening which came with my gray brick it was one of my first games I played on the system.
Thanks for sharing John. Was not aware of Fortified Zone. Looks like Berzerk to me.
I adore Mole Mania. While not as overlooked as those titles. It is filled to the brim with clever ideas.
Kid Dracula is my favorite. Have it for Famicom too.
This was awsome
John I love video games and fast food but most of all your channel.
Thee Immortal. I love me some F 1 Race. Great show!-)
When it comes to Game Boy, I swear by the Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle series, Kwirk, Daedalian Opus, Qix, Mole Mania, Project S-11 and Penta Dragon (to name one import title). You definitely have me sold on snagging the copy of Solomon's Club that I know has been sitting at my local retro shop for ages now though.
effin good games esp solomons club thats my favorite puzzle game
Right when I was thinking of Kirby it was mentioned!!!! Super star wars mega man
zen the intergalactic ninja is a game i loved on gameboy. it's similar to the turtles games on gameboy :)
Love the Gameboy Systems. I just got a Consolized GBA and you can add scan lines for all those pixels. It's a bit expensive but worth it. I use the Everdrive gb and the Everdrive X5 so I don't have to keep changing games so much. I think it's my favorite system of all time. I love Burgertime Deluxe and millipede on the thing for gameboy and for gba my favorites are Mario Pinball Land and Mario Vs. Donkey Kong.
Thanks John, I'll be checking out Fortified Zone and Solomon's Key thanks to your video. Already had the others. ;D I love classic GameBoy. The limited pixels and color palate really distilled gaming to it's most basic elements. When a game shines on GameBoy it's better than its 16bit counterparts.
The games I have on my GameBoy have aged really well! They are just as fun now as then! Maybe it is nostalgia, I do not know. Well, I have not tried all, I don`t have that many either. The last game I bought new was Warioland, really good game still! I also played a lot of Parasol Stars, Turtles 2, Mega Man and Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle. And I did play the first level of Battletoads alot..... And some others. The Game Boy is one of the absolute best "Consoles" ever, very fond memories when I play it now.
There's a GBC game that I strongly recommend. It's called Power Quest and it's the best two-button fighting game I've ever played that is not on NGPC. And I play a lot of fighters. I don't know how expensive it is but it's very good. I know, right? A two-button fighting game that's actually good?! Yep! It's not good for GBC, it's just straight good.
Hi o g john I have a original nintendo game boy dmg-01 system just like that one I put a glass screen on my original nintendo gameboy and it works excellent
Scouring the RUclips Verse for GB gems now that I have an Analogue Pocket.
Rockman 5. Awesome gameboy game.
Nice video I just bought fortified zone for $15
Great video!!
I love Tetris Dx for the Game Boy played it over and over :)
Solomon's club, I have the box for that right now that I'm trying to sell, but no takers. I don't collect handheld so I just sell any I come across.
The gameboy/color/advance are my favorites to collect for, i have over 300 games among all three. The love the giant range of different genres and games and just how many good titles were on these systems. I also love the many different ways available to play them. I Personally love playing on the SGB2 and also the GB Player with the GBI software.
One recommendation I will give to new collectors is to try out buying Japanese titles. So many playable games without the need of knowing Japanese are only like $1-5 on ebay. Every once in a while I will spend a night or two going through JPN ebay posts, mostly from one seller Ive bought a lot from, and I will end up getting like 20 or more games for $50-60.
Cool! I have never heard of Choplifter 2... I guess it only exists on the Gamboy??
Brian's Man Cave SNES
They enhanced it and released it on Game Gear as Choplifter 3. The Choplifter 3 on SNES is a sequel to this one. All fun games!
Interesting... jumped from Nintendo to SEGA. Cool :)
I didn’t know choplifter existed on gameboy. I think I played the first one on Commodore 64?
i kinda miss your full intro dude
#5 is alive!!!!!
NBA Jam for the GameBoy.
Amazing tater and spuds adventure
I remember playing Choplifter in the mid-nineties with my GB
