best gameboy color rpg

[TechBoyJK]

I have the vboy color emulator for my nokia ngage and I'm looking for a really good old school rpg to play. I have been messing with a few Dragon Warrior Roms, and dig them, but was wondering if there was anything else out there I might like.

Suggestions????

Original Gameboy?

- Final Fantasy Legend / II / III... be forewarned, the worlds/storylines in these are excellent, but the difficulty/frustration level is rather high since weapons have a limited number of uses, 99 or less, before they disappear... yup, even hand-to-hand stuff swords and one-of-a-kind, dungeon-found weapons... Not a "casual" RPG series, IMO.
- Final Fantasy Adventure... Seiken Densetsu 1 in Japan, prequel to our Secret of Mana for SNES; think Zelda-style action.
- Great Greed... a rarer, weirder, but really unique RPG, I'm probably one of a handful of people who actually bought it new... liked it alot.
- Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening... no intro necessary.
- I never played "Sword of Hope" but I remember wanting to... looked alot like the NES's Shadowgate or Deja Vu, IIRC.

These are probably GBC titles, check for compatibility w/your emulator:
- Dragon Warrior I&II (1 ROM)
- Dragon Warrior III
- Crystalis thumbsup::thumbsup: More Zelda-style live action but an absolute classic in its own right)
Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX (GBC re-release)

I'll post again if I remember more...

anything with 'zelda' in the title will no doubt be available for a nintendo console and will be an awesome RPG

Crystalis was released for GBC? :shocked:
I might have to find a copy.
