The staff mind melded and figured out our collective favorite GBA games.

To celebrate the GBA's 10th birthday, we're going to look fondly back on the system, highlighting our top 10 games.
Much like the Top 30 DS Games feature, each staffer submitted a list of their top 10 games, and then we used a point-based system to figure out the site's top 10.
We hope you enjoy the list, and if you agree or disagree, let us know. Just remember, this isn't a definitive list, as its based on nostalgia-tinged memories of an excellent system.
Anyone can check a review aggregation site to see the "top 10" games for a system, but it's more interesting (and meaningful) if this list is built from games that staff members actually played and loved. Hopefully we'll see a couple of lesser known or unappreciated gems on the list along with expected classics.
"Top" :-\
I'm sitting at 1 for 8. Unless both of the top two were on my list, my prediction will have been accurate.What in the world have you been playing on the GBA? There are so few worthwhile games that it's hard to imagine there are many that aren't already on this list. I barely own any GBA games and I've played almost every entry so far.
For the record, DK: King of Swing was on my top 10. I loved that game, though not as much as its DS sequel.
Yes, I will post my list once the official list is all up. Actually, given some of Neal's comments, I think it's altogether possible that both of the top two will have been on my list. I'm fairly certain at least one of them is.
Ninja 5-0. Gotta be #1.

...haven't you seen the list?

The top top ten was decided by vote. Those write-ups were by one person who voted for the game.
It's nice to see that Tales of Phantasia got some love, even if it was just in the honorable mention. I had a lot of fun with that game, not to mention the opening cut scene's voice acting was one of the most hilarious things I've heard in an RPG, intentional or otherwise. INDIGNATION!
Was that a GUY trying to make a GIRL Voice....It's nice to see that Tales of Phantasia got some love, even if it was just in the honorable mention.

INDIGNATION!I enjoyed that I got to include a dig at Namco's ability to produce RPGs at a rate that would bankrupt most studios...oh wait... sorry.
Also, here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6J1WRoZ1Za8) is the horrible opening in question.
It is really bad.
