      I concur with a lot of this: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/26971/re-set-100-snes-games-for-your-retropie?_=1596111667312

      For GBA, Aria of Sorrow or Zero Mission

        The Fireman on SNES is a pretty neat game and rather different. It only saw release in Japan and Europe.

          I'm always a fan of the Wizardry series and Wizardry I-II-III - Story of Llylgamyn (J) is a good time snes if you like that sort of game . after English patch if you don't speak Japanese it's definitely worth playing can follow it up with wisadry V also SNES with English patches available

              I really dug the GBA puzzle game Mario vs. Donkey Kong (2004).

                for snes i reccomend the following games all ARPG's

                Soul Blazer
                Illusion of Gaia/Time
                Terranigma

                terranigma's one of those overlooked games for a majority of people as it only got a jap and pal release us folks missed out back in the day one of the few times us pal folks didnt miss out

                  @AdamBeGood I couldn't agree more. :p
                  From this list, I'll recommend "something different to Mario and Zelda games" and some less known titles:

                  • Zombies Ate My Neighbors
                  • Demon's Crest
                  • Magical Pop'n (but you need an English patch)
                  • Super Turrican 2
                  • Sutte Hakkun (again, English patch)

                  If you are interested in Romhacks and Mods, there are ton of good stuff too.

                      Another vote for Metroid - specifically Super Metroid for the SNES, which I finally tried recently after 25 years of it apparently having been missing from my life... one of the Warioland games for GBA is pretty good too (possibly 4?)
                      I did find Barbie Horse Adventures for the GBA quite frustrating though, probably best avoided. Damn horse wouldn't do anything it was told to.

                        @TedMaul About Wario Land, I played 1 and 2 and the second game is brilliant and by far better. Its a really good top notch Nintendo quality game, which should say a lot (Quality of Seal 👌🏻). Can't say much about the other parts, as I didn't play them. From my brief experience the third one seems to be good too.
