What is the best Gameboy game of all time?

Links Awakening and Wario Land 1 are easily my most played GB games. Tetris belongs there too. Its THE version of Tetris, though I do have Effect also.
These 3 are the best. I've never tried DK 94, though I really wanted to get it at some point.

Wario Land or
Pokémon Blue or
Mystic Quest or
Kid Dracula
Okay, might be blinded by nostalgia here

Yup, yup, pretty good choices. Personally I'd add Mario's Picross as well but that is more of a personal choice as it can't really hang with those two.
I have a Game Boy emulator on my phone just for Tetris haven't found a mobile version of the game that is as good as that one. Although I should probably just get a NES emulator for the NES version.
Anyway, Tetris is probably my favorite.
Also remember playing a lot of a racing game. Don't remember the name but it was one of those where it was semi 3d and moved left and right.
And played a lot Killer Instinct and a lot of Metroid 2. Not sure if I ever beat Metroid.

Kirby's Dreamland. Was the first game I ever owned with the first gaming machine I ever owned, the Gameboy!
In terms of cultural importance, it's gotta be Tetris.
For actual best quality game it's a toss-up between DK94 and Link's Awakening.

It's either Link's Awakening or Pokemon Gold & Silver.
Donkey Kong 94, Super Mario Land 2 (The jump in quality from the quaint first game is insane), Wario Land 2, Pokemon Red & Blue and Gargoyle's Quest are up there too, though.
Really cool to see people realizing how great Gargoyle's Quest is, too.

Kaeru no Tame ni Kane wa Naru, which is sadly Japan only but is pretty simple to get through with some help from a walkthrough and even has an English fan translation if you don't mind playing it on an emulator. Awesome little RPG / platformer hybrid, not only the best GB game but one of my favorite games in general. Killer soundtrack too!
EDIT: Lol, I somehow read "best Gameboy" of all time. Oh well... ^^'
"Jackin! to that Girl"
Jesus, Famitsu, this copy is supposed to be for kids!
I really enjoyed Final Fantasy Legend III, it was my fav back in those days and probably still is. Link's Awakening is a very good game too though.
I still play Tetris on Game Boy Pocket from time to time.
My second favorite game is Donkey Kong. Followed by Worms.

Revenge of the gator
Holy hell yes! This was an amazing pinball game
Another criminally underrated game. RPG/Side-scroller hybrid. I loved this game.
This....or maybe Pokemon Trading Card game. :P
Okay, Link's Awakening.
Or maybe For Whom The Frog Bell Tolls.
I liked Metroid II.
It's Link's Awakening. It's always been Link's Awakening.
Game Boy Color? Link's Awakening DX. But also Pokémon Gold/Silver, Oracle of Ages and Metal Gear Solid.

One of my all-time favorite systems and the first system I could call my own instead of shared with my brother. It is really hard to narrow the list down to one game.
Final Fantasy Legend 2 and 3, Wario Land 1 and 2, Kirby's Dreamland 1 and 2, Mole Mania, Link's Awakening, SML2, DK94, Pokemon RBY, Donkey Kong Land games, Revenge of the Gator (forgot exact name), all those Kirby spinoffs (I loved them all), and of course Tetris. There were so many 9/10 or more games for me on this platform.
I guess for me the answer is Wario Land, Super Mario Land 3 but it is extremely close. Every game I listed is still a fun game for me to play today.
