10. MARIO & LUIGI: SUPERTAR SAGA (GBA)
Few GBA games were as polished as this one was. Not only did it have a great blend ofstory, humor,interesting characters, fun gameplay mechanics, and great puzzles& worlds; it also brought a fantastic new approach to the Mario universe, and managed to bebothengaging and immensely entertaining the entire way through the game. I never would have pictured an RPG to be so fun, but it was accessible, innovative, and also technically impressive in addition to being such a blast to play. There's nothing about this game I didn't love.


9. RAYMAN 2: THE GREAT ESCAPE (DC)
Rayman has always been a fantastic series; but this installment was the pinnacle. The entire world you're put in from the minute you turn the game on is incredible; and it's only made better by the fantastic platforming. The game was dripping with imagination, and it had great bosses, great graphics, great music, and great level design too. Not to mention that the DC version was superior to all others.


8. SUPER SMASH BROS. MELEE (GC)
Super Smash Bros. Melee is the best fighting game ever made. There's so much to this game it's incredible. Not only is it one of the best multiplayer experiences you'll ever have, but it's also a very deep and feature-rich game that will keep you busy and entertained forever. It also creates an awesome atmosphere since everything in the Nintendo universe is incorporated into the game somehow. Easy to learn and hard to master, who knew a Nintendo history lesson could be so finely tuned?


7. RESIDENT EVIL 4 (GC)
Ah...good ol' RE4. Where would we be without ya? As if it needs a whole paragraph to explain its greatness. This installment of the Resident Evil franchise is unquestionably the best in the series; and any review this game gets will speak for itself. The graphics, the atmosphere, the enemies, the white-knuckle action and horror; all the best I've seen in almost any game ever, and there's so much to see that it warrants playing through the game more than once a must. Not that you wouldn't want to anyways.


6. SONIC ADVENTURE (DC)
Sonic Adventure will always be seen in my mind as the last fantastic Sonic game. The story was excellent, the worlds were fantastic, Chaos is a great enemy, and anything that's great about the Sonic universe is present in this game, along with replayability aspects that were through the roof!
