Well a lot of the better GBA games are actually ports/sequels to older nes/snes games: Zelda, Fire Emblem, Advanced Wars, mario etc. so comparing two systems one of which has the best games of the previous system isn't exactly fair, it's like calling the PS2 a better system than the PS1 simply because it can play all the PS1 games as well as the PS2 library.

Other than that a lot of older games are "better" due to nostalgia, you have no idea how many times I've remembered NES games as something amazing, then I go back and play them and find myself disappointed. Although I will say most older JRPGs had better storylines which significantly less time devoted to creating dull unorginial emo personalities for all their cast members.

 

I know they're sequels (although that's not the case for Advance Wars, the original is on GBC or GBA), but still, the SNES is being said (by some) to have the greatest library by today's standard. And that's really what I don't understand.
