Most of the games I like have already been suggested a couple of times. But one game I'd like to add is the prototype of Holey Moley. Even though this game requires a keypad to play, I think it still would translate well enough to the GBA, since it only uses 9 keys. This could probably simulated with the crosspad for selecting the key and a button to 'press' the key. BTW, have you already done some emulator testing on the GBA? According to all the magazine articles around here, the GBA is only working at about 16MHz. That's not a whole lot for an universal VCS emulator. You'd probably have to use some seriously optimized assembler code, and still would need to customize the emulator routines a lot for each of the games. Also the screen resolution might be a problem. You might be forced to turn the display by 90 degrees, so maybe you should select your games to work well even when viewed from the side. I think early games like Combat Maze Craze Warlords Surround Indy 500 Space War Dodge Em etc. would still be alright under these circumstances.
