GBA forgotten gems

Since the same games tend to get discussed over and over, I'd like to make a general thread for great GBA games that have slipped under the radar.

I'd like to heartily recommend Medal of Honor: Infiltrator. It's a top-down action game in the vein of the original Metal Gear for the NES. It uses an ingenious strafing shooting style and tight controls. It has a good mix of stealth and action.

I tried that game out simply because I played the daylights out of metal gear when I was a kid. was kind of disappointed with medal of honor though.my pick would be iridion 3d that game looks like it came off of a ps1 console with dead on controls and a good balance of challenge try it out if you havent already.

Star Wars Episode 3 - The Revenge of the Sith on GBA is surprisingly good.
very good, actually, imo

Lego Star Wars is great.

Also, there's a fairly new one, Dr. Mario & Puzzle League. Dr. Mario is the same old thing we've had since GB Mono days, but Puzzle League is Tetris Attack or Pokemon Puzzle League, and it's about time it was available on GBA.

Ninja Five-O is also quite good.

Hells yeah, Ninja Five-O. I can't believe there aren't many people who know about this kick a** game.

Zone of the Enders. Nice story, and nice gameplay. But it's not for every gamer, a lot of people dislike this kind of games.
