I am giving one of my brother a GBAsp w/ Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga for Christmas.  I wantt to give him one more game, but can't deside which one.  I would give him Super Mario Bros. 3: Super Mario Advance 4, but I gave it to one of our other bros. last year and they can share/trade.

Here is what I have thought of giving:

- Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past w/ Four Swords
- Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2
- Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3
- Wario Ware, Inc: Mega Microgame$

Suggestions?

Super Mario World is what I would want.

Well, you've pretty much ordered it in the priority I'd assign.

No way, Wario Ware should be on top over those rehash rereleases.

I'd have to say A Link to the Past, but only if he hasn't went through the snes version.  That was a frickin good game.

These were my favs.

1 Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga (Funniest handheld game ever.  I will give this.)
2 Super Mario Bros. 3: Super Mario Advance 4 (I loved the e-World levels and other add-ons.  He can borrow this.)
3 Wario Ware, Inc: Mega Microgame$ (I liked the GCN version better, but this one has Dr. Wario.)
4 Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past w/ Four Swords (My 2nd fav Zelda game.  Ocarina is my fav.)
5 Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2 (My most played SNES game.)
6 Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3 (Never struck me as a "Mario" game.)

What else should be on the list?

Anyone else have an opinion on what other game I should give him?

He had an SNES, but hadn't played it since I moved out about 11 years ago.  Although he likes 3d shooter (GTA) and racing (NFSU) games on the PS2, I am thinking Wario Ware may be the best game for him.  I could buy a "new" game like FF1&2.  He played and borrowed my PoP and FFX this summer.

LD, I have considered getting Astro Boy: Omega Factor.  Why is it one of your favs?  What game(s) is it most like?

I have narrowed it down to these two:

- Wario Ware, Inc: Mega Microgame$ (I liked the GCN version better, but this one has Dr. Wario.)
- Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past w/ Four Swords (My 2nd fav Zelda game. Ocarina is my fav.)

I saw a few used LoZ:ALttP at GameStop for $25, but they didn't have Wario Ware used (that I saw, I was getting the DS and didn't stay long).

It is one of my favs because it is like Viewtiful Joe. 2D nonstop brawling action with cool powers and periodic flying shooter sections.

Sounds like the type of game he would like.  Now I am even more torn.  I gues I could do like I did let year for one of my other brothers and let him choice from my games them rebuy the game he picks for myself.
