Hmm...this was much tougher than I thought. I played A LOT of GB games, but I have to admit most don't really hold up today. I was about to stop at twenty, but after some digging, the last ten are hardly a step down in quality (okay...compared to 11-20, that is).
I also have to note that I haven't really played all of these games. Like...I know metroid's a classic, but I never would have picked it myself (and I still haven't played a pokémon game yet
). But again: this is a list based on what's essential on the system, not my personal choises.
