The Game Boy iteration of the classic arcade series was a massive leap forward for franchise that Nintendo has yet to surpass.
The fourth and last (?) of the Dream Land games is also the best of the bunch.
Golden Sun and its sequel are one game much more than they are a duology, and it's this combined effort that secures them a spot in the top 101.

It's not as popular, no, but 2D Wario is, generally speaking, better than 2D Mario, and that all started with the first Wario game fully detached from Mario's universe.

There are quite a few games in the Rhythm Heaven series, but the Nintendo DS' release stands out.
If you haven't played Elite Beat Agents, you have my condolences.
