Does anyone have any Game Boy (the original one from 1989) or Game Boy Color games that they like which might not be as well known as the more popular (Zelda, Mario, etc.) games? I'm just looking for some recommendations. Thanks.

Robocop - the score is so masterful that it enhances the gaming experience extensively. Definitely one worth playing to experience the score

Now I haven't played it or its bigger budget counterparts, the Game Boy Color version of Daikatana seems to get praised pretty well (and easily given more praise than the console counterpart)
Never released in North America, but IIRC Game Boy Color games are region free, so fined a European cart of it if you go that way and you'll be fine.

Not as good as the NES or Wii versions, but still a charming little puzzle adventure.

It’s a long-running UK radio show where famous people choose the handful of the only songs they’d be able to listen to again if they were marooned on a Desert Island. Charlie Brooker chose that theme specifically as one of his song choices.

I think the original Shantae game could count as a hidden gem. I mean, it wasn't big at the time of its release because it was released on the Game Boy Color about a year after the Game Boy Advance was released, so it flew under the radar.
It got a re-release last year on the Switch and will be getting a release on the PS4 and PS5, but for years, it was a hidden gem.

For random ones I tried out in the early days of the 3DS when there wasn't a lot to pick from, I thought Catrap and Balloon Kid were surprisingly decent.

Warlocked, an RTS on GBC and Faceball 2000, a FPS on GB. Both pretty neat attempts at genres you didn't typically see on the hardware.

The Dragon Warrior/Quest Monsters games are extremely fun and customizable Pokemon clones. I'd even go as far to state they hold up as better gaming experiences than Gen I and II do now.
