Are there games with 9-bit (512) color palettes?
Are there games with 9-bit colors that can display all 9-bits of colors on screen at once? I know the Sega and SNES games technically had a lot more colors, but they can't display them all at once.

Kirby Superstar and Dream Land 3, but that's through an extra chip, and to a high color 15-bpp screen.

Most GBA games?
15-bit BGR (5 bits depth per channel), capable of displaying 512 simultaneous colors in "character mode" and 32,768 (215) simultaneous colors in "bitmap mode".
