FF3. I've had it for ages (imported from US) but I think it's just about to come out over here.

You could get FF6 for GBA, I'm currently waiting delivery on it.

Some people say it's the best FF ever and it's supposed to be better than FF3 for DS.

Yeah I'd agree with that. FF3 is more modern graphics wise, but that's because it's a proper remake of FF3, where as FF6 is pretty much just a port. However FF6 is much more modern and superior in terms of gameplay and story. There's FF1,2,4 and 5 available for the GBA too.

Is Lunar Knights out here yet? I am sure that got some good reviews?
Made by Kojima Productions so surely must be worth a look

Although not quite the same as the Final Fantasy's and their ilk, Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time is a superb RPG, as is it's GBA predecessor, Superstar Saga

MArio and Luigi GBA and DS versions rock!

FF3 is a very good game, although can be quite difficult in places, well worth a look if you're a FF fan.

Did you not notice the large slot on the underneath?

There's an absolute ton of good RPGs for the GBA. The FFs, Golden Sun, Fire Emblem, Zeldas, Pokemon (yes really), M & L.

No, Super Mario RPG (the one released on the SNES in Japan/USA, never released in the UK) and Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga/Partners in Time are completely different games.

Info on Mario RPG, including some screenshots can be found here
Whereas Superstar Saga can be found here
