What Game Boy game do you love that you never hear anyone talk about? (self.retrogaming)

The more rare, obscure, or just a guilty pleasure, the better. Maybe you grew up with it, maybe it's just the nostalgia talking, any reason is fine.

I'm looking for a new game to play, but I'm running out of games to collect!

My favorite is games for original DMG, but you're welcome to include Color it'll advance games too!

Donkey Kong (1994) - not really rare or obscure, but definitely not talked about enough.
It starts out like regular donkey kong but then it goes somewhat differently.
The colorization is only complete with SuperGameboy so it might be tricky to play that way but there is a colorization hack being worked on.

I played the shit out of Donkey Kong Country 2 on my GBC as a kid. A lot of it with that crappy night light attachment that ate batteries and gave me motion sickness playing at night in the car.

I think he's talking about the game that is the precursor to the Mario VS Donkey Kong series. Sorta a puzzle platformer.
