Need for Speed Carbon - Own the City on GBA is basically the little sibling of the console version—same street racing vibe, just shrunk down for your Game Boy. You start off picking a crew (tuners, muscle, or exotics), and honestly, the handling feels a bit stiff at first, but you get used to it. The city’s divided into zones you gotta take over, and night races actually look pretty decent for a GBA game—neon lights, tight corners, the usual.

It’s got that classic NFS police chase chaos too, though the cop AI isn’t exactly genius. Still, drifting around corners with that crunchy GBA sound effect never gets old. If you’re into portable racing but want something meatier than Mario Kart, this one’s a solid pick.
