    There was one called Noobow which I thought was cute. I don't know how long it is. I got it in an auction lot, but it's hard to find.

    First of all, get a Super Gameboy to play the original gameboys on a SNES, if you haven't already done so. It adds color and borders plus the games are often easier to play using the SNES controller.

    original:
    Crystal Quest (shooter ported from Mac)
    Adventure Island II
    Gradius Interstellar Assault
    Nemesis
    Space Invaders (for use on the Super Gameboy)
    Mr Do!
    Wario Blast (a Bomberman game)
    Kingdom Crusade (strategy)
    Nobunaga's Ambition (Koei strategy with battery save)
    Spanky's Quest (puzzle)
    Bases Loaded (the only bases loaded with batter view)
    Sword of Hope II (rpg with battery save)
    Dragon Slayer (Japan import, English language)

    color:
    Tetris DX
    Hexcite (puzzle)
    Revelations Demon Slayer
    Mario Golf
    Dragon's Lair
    Heroes of Might and Magic (strategy)
    Warlocked (strategy)

    advance:
    Kasparov chess
    Fire Emblem
    Go 2 (Konami Japan import, Japanese language)
    Activision Anthology (compilation of Atari 2600 games by Activision)
    the Classic line (Zelda, Super Mario etc. with battery save)
