Yeah, I couldn't even begin to list just 3 games on the GBA. But you need to play Wario Ware Twisted.

Gameboy Color
Metroid 2 - I found this game very difficult to complete without looking at a map online.
Links Awakening - If you love lttp you will love this one.
Super Mario Deluxe - 2 Mario games in one!

Nintendo Ds - Kind of cheating, but it also plays GBA
Both GBA Metroid games - If you haven't played them, you need to.
New Super Mario Bros. It takes from the originals and tweaks them.
Henry Hatsworth - Great combination of platforming and puzzling at the same time.

PSP - By far my favorite. It emulates just about all other platforms also can play movies and music.
Dracula X Chronicles - again 2 great games in one.
Fight Night Round 3 - Im a sucker for boxing games and this one is amazing.
Virtua Tennis 3 - Great game, great time killer.

Give me your general take on Ace Attorney if you don't mind. I own the first game and I'm playing through it off and on. I like it, but it feels like I'm slogging through it half the time. I like the concept, the kookiness of it, the art is fine, I just don't know why I don't like it more.

This is a bit of a toughie for me. I like GBA games but I don't actually own GBA. I really like my 3DS and PSP but haven't actually played three games on them that I like... to keep things interesting I'm going to SKIP OVER ALL THREE OF THOSE BELOVED HANDHELDS and pick something different. I'm going to limit myself to one title per series but spinoffs will count as a separate series (because Dragon Warrior Monsters and Dragon Warrior III are both games I love greatly) ANYWAY:

Nintendo DS:
9 Hours, 9 Persons, 9 Doors
Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia
Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride

Game Boy and GB Color:
Dragon Warrior III
Dragon Warrior Monsters
Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3

Game Gear:
Bubble Bobble
Sonic Triple Trouble
Tails' Adventure

This is heresy among some Ace Attorney fans, but you might like Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth more. Unlike the main series, it actually makes the gameplay fun while maintaining the silliness.

I'm still annoyed that the sequel never got an official release. (At least there's a fan translation that I might attempt getting to work at some point.)

I have only finished Ace Attorney and Justice For All. I loved Ace Attorney, especially the final case. However I found Justice For All to be a dramatic reduction in quality and it was a chore to finish that one. I'm planning on playing Trials And Tribulations soon, hopefully it pulls the series back up to the quality of the first game.

(To be fair I read that Capcom rushed the hell out of Shu Takumi to finish up Justice For All in less than a year, but he was given two years to finish Trials And Tribulations after critical backlash.)
PLAY KING'S FIELD.

Game Boy Color:
Pokemon Red / Pokemon Yellow - tons of time invested here. Played both quite thoroughly. If they ever rerelease yellow, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.
Legend of Zelda Oracle of Seasons / Ages, in that order.
Pokemon Silver

Game Boy Advance:
Advance Wars / Advance Wars 2
Super Mario Advance
Castlevania Circle of the Moon

Game Gear:
Tails Adventure / Sonic 2
Choplifter 3
Donald Duck Lucky Dime Caper
