 GameSpy.com - Review
When portable gaming comes to mind, puzzle games like Tetris (Game Boy) and Snake (mobile phone) stand out as games that can be played over and over again.
New to the game are the battle mode (up to four players), weapons, power-ups, tutorials, card collecting, preview, and story mode.
The game looks very basic, but the puzzles are very well designed to ease you through while building skills for the upcoming (and much harder) noodle-challenging levels.

 IGN: Spyro the Dragon: Attack of the Rhynocs Review
There are two distinctly different game styles of several levels each that players must complete in order to score the aforementioned key pieces, and these separate challenges add to the variety already put in the main game's design.
It sounds like this element makes the game far easier than its predecessors, but considering the immense size of the game's world and the variety of challenges in each level, it's a great choice to go this way since "death" is no longer a massive and annoying set-back.
This year's game, while still based around the previous two designs, changes things up a bit to put more focus on "adventuring" more than "action." The end result is a familiar experience, but with plenty more variety in gameplay that extends this experience into an adventure that lasts a good long time.

The story is the same as the original Pokémon games, You’re a little boy or girl (this time around, you can be a girl) who wants to become the ultimate pokémon trainer and collect all of the pokémon.
Beautiful game, The battle scenes could’ve used a bit of an upgrade in terms of backgrounds, but the rest of the game is near flawless.
Playing the original pokémon red game, revamped for me was almost more fun than playing it the first time.

 Fire Emblem Review for Game Boy Advance (GBA) - Gamer-Talk.net
The battle system is like a board game in which you can move your “pieces” all around the “board”, the pieces being the characters and the board being the battlefield.

The music of them game was well composed and orchestrated.

If you are using a Game Boy Player and you are photosensitive, have somebody else run the program for you.
This program, designed to be run in Game Boy Player, demonstrates reading a standard controller and a DK Bongos controller.
(There is one drawback: the Game Boy Player's controller reading code has a pretty high threshold for what counts as a press of the R button, and clapping loud enough to trigger it may hurt your hands.) This package also includes a version of AGBTTY updated to work with devkitARM.

 Battletoads - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Battletoads in Ragnarok's World: Game Boy version of the original game, Released in 1993.
In 2004 the lead designer of Rare's Game Boy Advance team stated that 'a Battletoads game would be really cool on the GBA - there's nothing to confirm at the moment, but hopefully we can do one in the future.' [1] in response to a question whether a new Battletoads game was in development.
Another critical bug in the game occurs in level 11, entitled "Clinger Wingers." Due to a design flaw and bad beta testing, during a 2-player game, the second player is unable to move in level 11, and therefore must lose all of his or her lives before player one can continue the level.

Both games have excellent animation when viewed from the point they were intended to be (on the Game Boy Advance), but they didn't excel in this area on the Game Boy Player.
I play Game Boy games at home a lot anyways; I might as well be able to play them on my TV.

 The Video Game Critic's Game Boy Reviews M-Z
NOTE: These games are rated in comparison to other Game Boy games.
Such a game is the eccentric and inventive Wario Ware Inc. Basically a collection of mini-games loosely tied together by a silly cartoon storyline, Ware is unlike anything else I've ever played before.
The main criteria is based on how fun the game is to play, although control, graphics, and sound also play a role.

 The Jaded Gamer > Reviews > Game Boy Advance > "Boulder Dash EX"
The levels are set in typical game environments ranging from ice worlds to fire worlds to water worlds.
If any of these elements sound familiar, it might be because Boulder Dash games have found their way onto several gaming platforms since the original Boulder Dash game was designed in 1984.
I believe that the mainstream video game press has done a disservice to this game and to the gaming community as a whole by not covering this title when it was first released.
