Finding Nemo - Arata Na Bouken is one of those early 2000s GBA movie tie-ins that somehow manages to be more fun than it has any right to be. You're basically swimming through the movie's story—dodging jellyfish, escaping the dentist's tank, all that—but with some surprisingly decent platforming and exploration bits thrown in. The controls take a second to get used to (Nemo handles like, well, a tiny fish), but once you adjust, it's weirdly satisfying to navigate those coral mazes.

It’s in Japanese, but don’t let that scare you off—most of it’s easy to figure out just from visuals, and honestly, the dialogue scenes are skippable anyway. The caravan mode’s a nice touch if you just want quick bursts of gameplay. Not gonna lie, the graphics still hold up pretty well for a GBA title, especially the underwater lighting effects.

If you’ve got nostalgia for the movie or just want a chill, slightly janky retro platformer, this one’s worth a dive.
