What Game Boy game do you love that you never hear anyone talk about? (lemmy.zip)

The more rare, obscure, or just a guilty pleasure, the better. Maybe you grew up with it, maybe it's just the nostalgia talking, any reason is fine.

I'm looking for a new game to play, but I'm running out of games to collect!

My favorite is games for original DMG, but you're welcome to include Color it'll advance games too!

Is Taz-Mania for the Game Boy different than the Game Gear version? I had that one as a kid and I thought it was a really terrible game, even back then. But being a kid I played it because I only had a handful of games and driving to grandma's house took a long time...

I just looked it up since I didn't know but the Game Gear version definitely looks different from the Gameboy one I remember.

Oh yeah, the Game Boy version looks better. Although it's interesting that it looks like the consoles let you spin as much as you wanted but the portables limited it.

The soundtrack to Taz-Mania for Game Gear is infamously one of the worst game soundtracks of all time. Just click around to different songs and then imagine kid me immediately turning off the volume as quickly as possible.
