I am among what seems like very few people who consider this console better than original Gameboy. It had less games so it might seem at first to have less good games, but it just requires more looking to find it's good games. It really represented certain genres well like sports games or pinball games, and had several good games from other genres as well. There were even several games from genres that generaly do not get much representation. Some examples of games that I am talking about:
Sports games:
ESPN International Track & Field ~ Has a interesting fencing game.
Golf Daisuki - Let's Play Golf ~ Good golf game.
King of Golf ~ Also a good golf game.
Mario Golf ~ Excellent golf game.
Mario Tennis ~ Good tennis game.
Mobile Golf ~ Good golf game.
Pocket Bowling ~ Decent bowling game.
Pinball games:
Hollywood Pinball
Super Robot Pinball
Ultra 3D Pinball - Thrillride
Pocket Monsters Pinball
Some of my favorite other games:
Alone in the Dark - The New Nightmare ~ Port of Alone in the Dark 4
Balloon Fight GB ~ Rerelease of Ballon Kid (sequel to Ballon Fight)
Bomberman Max ~ Awesome game. As good as a Bomberman game would be expected to be.
Bust-a-Move 4 ~ Puzzle Bobble 4. Does not control as well as console release, but still good.
Bust-a-Move Millennium ~ Puzzle Bobble something-or-other in Japan. Same control problems, but still good.
Magical Drop ~ SFC original was better, but this is still a good port.
Densha De Go! ~ Decent port of a masterpiece game.
Densha De Go! 2 ~ CAN ANYBODY TELL ME IF THERE IS A EMULATOR THAT WILL PLAY THIS ROM?
Front Line - The Next Mission ~ Sequel to arcade/NES original. A decent run 'n' gun game.
Gameboy Wars 2 ~ Part of Nintendo's Wars series.
Gameboy Wars 3 ~ Also part of Nintendo's Wars series.
Ganbare Goemon - Hoshizorashi Dynamites Arawaru!! ~ This game and those two GB Kirby games are my favorite portable platformers. Very recommended if you have even a mild interest in platformers.
Jet De Go! ~ Maybe my favorite game on this console. Awesome and very recommended.
Konami GB Collection Volume 1-4 ~ These are pretty good, but 1 has Operation C, which is excellent.
Little Magic ~ Good Lolo clone. SFC version was better.
Mr. Driller ~ Good puzzle game. Actualy a sequel to Dig Dug.
Pocket Densya ~ Actualy for SGB, but whatever.
Pocket Densya 2 ~ This was for GBC.
Pop 'N' Pop ~ Good puzzle game.
Puchi Carat ~ Good puzzle game.
Qix Adventure ~ Good puzzle game.
Resident Evil Gaiden ~ I really like this game. Nothing like other Resident Evil games, but good.
SD Hiryu Ex ~ This console's best fighting game. Of course it kind of wins that title by default, but regardless it is a ok game. Sequel to fantastic SFC game. This series is a spin-off of Culture Brain's Hiryu no Ken games.
Chinese Fighter ~ Second best GBC fighting game. Ok. Sequel to equally fantastic SFC game. These two series are kind of like sister series. This series is a spin-off series of Culture Brain's Super Chinese series.
