Is this amazing GBA game way to underrated? Do you guys even like it? This was the first zelda game i've been able to complete and I think it's amazing but no one ever talks about it. What views do you guys have on this game?

The game isn't underrated, it just goes unnoticed more often than not because of the Skyward Sword craze. I love the game, it's one of the higher 2D Zeldas in my opinion, but it will always be overshadowed by the console games simply because those are the bigger releases.

I've beaten the game many many times, only things I haven't done are do all Kinstone Fusions, get the sound test, and of course get all heart pieces since some of them require specific fusions that I haven't done.

Yeah I would agree that its a really good game, but unfortunately it isn't on a console so it doesn't get as much discussion. I really enjoyed playing it. The items and the shrinking hook were great so I would say its a really good Zelda.

I think MC is a fantastic Zelda game that isn't underrated so much as it just goes over looked. Maybe it's because it was released quite late in the GBA's life cycle (2005) and the DS was already out? Also up until quite recently with the 3DS ambassador program, Minish Cap wasn't available on other systems. I have to assume that has effected the amount of people that have played it. Tracking down a cartridge isn't always easy.

The Minish Cap was/is a sensational game. I agree with you, people do underrate it, but there's a reason for that. People really don't care about GB games or GBA games. A lot of people don't like the handheld games and only pay attention to the console games. That's only some people though. If only people would have the patience to try MC. Nowadays, it's pretty hard to get your hands on a copy of MC.

I love the Minish Cap. It is my favorite handheld Zelda game and the most recent one I played. The atmosphere is great jumpstarting the action within minutes as Vaati wins a tournament at the king's court. Little does everyone knows of his malicious intentions... The soundtrack also greatly complements the gameplay with a combination of original tracks as well as some from Ocarina of Time. The presentation and graphics were also some of the best the Gameboy Advance had to offer. For its seeming ease throughout, the game's difficulty picked up to quite possibly a franchise high at the end.

As to why no people talk about it, I believe that is because it is an older game and has not been released on any of Nintendo's virtual services thus making it a rare gem to find.

Well all of the 2D releases seem to be overshadowed by the 3d console titles. I don't think this is unfair at all, since I have enjoyed the 3D titles much much more than any 2d ones I have played.
