What games did you enjoy playing on your calculator that will fit on a regular ti 84+?

Super mario land and kirby's dreamland. They are both great games.
My projects

 - Oxo, with single-calc multiplayer and AI (axe) RELEASED (screenshot) (topic)
 - An android version of oxo (java)  ACTIVE
 - A 3D collision detection library (axe) RELEASED! (topic)(screenshot)(more recent screenshot)(screenshot of it being used in a tilemapper)
Spoiler For inactive:
- A first person shooter with a polygon-based 3d engine. (z80, will probably be recoded in axe using GLib) ON HOLD (screenshot)
 - A java MORPG. (pc) DEEP COMA(read more)(screenshot)
 - a minecraft game in axe DEAD (source code available)
 - a 3D racing game (axe) ON HOLD (outdated screenshot of asm version)

metroid II return of samus was a big no no for me, same with super mario land.  Kirby dreamland, does it save?  A lot of games either suck, or have bugs with ti boy.  I like megaman games though, and rolan's curse.

That doesn't fit on a non-SE calculator.

None of these games fit on the regular 84+...

Do most gbc games save, or only a few?

They do, just no color.

And, Do most gbc games save, or only a few?

No GBC-exclusive games run in TI-Boy. Some games could run in either GB or GBC mode, and in TI-Boy those games are emulated as GB, of course.

Hmm....Don't most GB roms have a bunch of zeros at the end that could be stripped? Would ti-boy run these?

Example: My pokemon red rom has 326128 bytes of zeros on its tailing end.

Oh, btw, kirby's dreamland doesn't save on the real hardware.

Most games do not. However, the TI-Boy app convertor already detects trailing 0's and 255's and removes them, so Pokemon Red does end up taking less space.

Can you get pokemon red on the ti-84 plus non-se one? I'm trying this for ages... Can you please tell me how you do it?
