Hi all,

I'm going to be doing a serious amount of travelling in the next 4-6 weeks ( we're talking 50 odd hours ) and have just picked up a GBA Micro off the bay. I looked at a DS/PSP ... but the cost of the console/games was a little out of what I can afford.

I'm going to need some games that will waste some serious time, I've done a little bit of reasearch already and picked up :

Golden Sun
Final Fantasy VI
Zelda Minish Cap
Yoshis Island - Mario Advance 3
Mario Vs Donkey Kong
Grand Theft Auto

Any other recommendations?

Cheers
 
Great list there.

Get advance wars, Golden Sun 2, Breath of fire series, mario kart and the mario advance 2 (super mario world from the SNES basically) as well.
 
pokemon gold/silver
pokemon yellow
links awakening

if your travelling, i doubt you will finish more than 1 game realistically!

Argh, I was going to reply with pokemon but forgot once I started thinking about other games to recommend >_<
 
As said for time wastage advance wars can steal hours and hours.

One you will love looking at your list of already bought games is Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga which is brilliant.

lol, these games can steal your life away, and id say gold/silver would take ~ 4- hours+ to get the the elite 4 if you do it "properly" and level up and explore.

Plus u can catch Ho-Oh and a Red Gyrados! both COOL and sought after pokemon (you could trade it up and across into firered/sapphire i *think* and then into Pearl/Diamond if you ever wanted too!!

plus they are both proper classic pokemon games. i may even rebuy and replay!

i also have Golden Sun 1+2 but got stuck near the end of 1. great game though, fantastic RPG with lots of things id not experieced before (despite being a fair avid RPG'er in the Final Fantasy form). commands outside of battle were the differentiator for me! good good game though.
 
Castlevania: Circle of the Moon, best game on the GBA imo and SUPERB replay value, thats if youre into action RPG's
 
Mech Platoon if you want an RTS on the go, loved that game on the GBA! Managed to waste an alright amount of time aswell by the time we'd salvaged all the enemy tech.
