Could you perhaps list 5 games per console?

Also to be clear ZLAWK for GB is Zelda: Links Awakening? What's ALTTP for SNES? For PS1, which Tekken, FIFA, GT and Wipeout? For N64 Zoot is Zelda: Ocarina of Time? For PS2 What's DW, which Madden, and I assume Kingdom Hearts 1, not 2 correct? For Gamecube what's LM, SMS, and SSMBM? For GBA, Which Golden Sun and Metroid, and could you expand to 5 games? (You can list every Golden Sun and Metroid if you like). For DS, what is ZPH, and which Brain Age/Dragon Quest? For Wii, I assume RRR is Rayman Raving Rabids?

Gameboy/Color:
1) Pokemon Red/Blue
2) Pokemon Gold/Silver
3) Super Mario Land
4) Pokemon Crystal
5) Pokemon Yellow

Gameboy Advance:
1) Pokemon FireRed/LeafGreen
2) Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire
3) Super Mario Bros Collection
4) Kingdom Hearts: Chains of Memory
5) Mario Kart: Super Circuit

Hey I'll be separating GB and GBC games as they are technically two different consoles (Not all GBC games play on a regular gameboy). So could you split up that list? Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow or GB games, while Gold/Silver/Crystal are GBC.

Also for GBA, when you say Super Mario Bros Collection, are you refering to Super Mario Bros, Classic Collection (The NES port of SMB1)?
