      I can’t tell if you’re being facetious but the only downside to Minish Cap was the Gacha system, where they developed only the bad parts of the Oracle games’ Gacha seed system and turned it into a chore that gated 100% completion.
      Aside from that, it was a charming addition to the franchise.

      I haven’t played Four Swords GBA or the Link to the Past port but Four Swords on the GameCube with the GBA cables was a very solid couch co-op game.
      Maybe not totally in-line with the spirit of the series but still very good on its own.

      I didn’t play any Zelda title on the GBA, but those could work due to their puzzle focus. However, even fully combat oriented games couldn’t really do much more than Zelda did in terms of their combat system, which ended up being quite dull.

      I kind of liked the Legacy of Goku series, just because I like Dragon Ball and because level ups made a huge difference. The battle system wasn’t anything special, but it was satisfying to just grind a bit and afterwards demolishing anything in your path - just repeat this in any given new area.
