Ball. Introducing Mr. Game & Watch himself, Ball is a surprisingly simple 2-mode game from 1980. Always tempting you with just 'one more go', this can get tough. Remember though - don't drop any balls! See Ball in action @ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UhZwwTfu8c. Media Credits: mamehaze/YouTube

Glorious, fun memories https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWdIvUB93F8. Media Credits: Mobygames

Zelda. This multi-screen game certainly pushed the envelope re: what was possible on an LCD screen. With an inventory and map included, Link battled through to the top of the screen to confront a huge dragon. Super handheld action, very desirable.
