Back around 2002, a fan-translated PC rendition of the Saturn/PC-98 title El-Hazard was produced. Shortly after the successful completion of the PC conversion, the game was ported to the Gameboy Advance system - the entire game was made into the 32MB max ROM space of a GBA, with three full vocal ending songs.
Note: Download is for version 1.0 only (the latest version is 3.0).

Shinpi no Sekai: El-Hazard The Magnificent World is an Adventure game is based on is a Japanese anime franchise.
The story go by high school student Makoto Mizuhara and his companion got trap into another uknown world and Makoto have been chosen as savior by pray of the princess.
The conversion is essentially the same as the Saturn version, except for a bit of positioning error and some added facets to the characters that are not by any means 100% accurate to their typical cartoon counterparts.
Also, many creative liberties were taken in translating the game.

Known issues
Version 1 and 2, released as ROM with a version headers 99 and 10 respectively, had the bad sound engine, and Version 1 in particular had several bugs in it that prevented it from running on a real GBA.
Version 3 here is pretty much functionally identical to Version 2 except with the new sound engine.
