Feel free to make your own lists. I'm not a big fan of Street Fighter II so you can replace MK II with it if you'd like, that's what I did with Street Fighter when Mortal Kombat didn't even get mentioned on an arcade top ten episode of Filter on G4. There are so many great games to choose from I don't think a definitive list is possible.

No order here...
Metroid Prime (Cube)
Super Metroid (SNES)
Granada (Gen)
Sonic CD (Sega CD)
Chrono Trigger (SNES)
Um Jammer Lammy (PSX)
Bomberman 64 (N64)
Super Mario Bros. 2 (NES)

Just so my list isn't totally dominated by tri-Ace games, I'm gonna lump them all together at the top. The order is pretty random after the top three entries.
tri-Ace's games (Star Ocean series, Valkyrie Profile, Radiata Stories)
Chrono Trigger (SNES)
Super Mario All-Stars (SNES)
Goemon's Great Adventure (N64)
Wonder Project J2 (N64)
Super Mario 64 (N64)
Donkey Kong Country 2 (SNES)
Super Mario RPG (SNES)
Kirby Super Star (SNES)
Marvelous (SFC)
I left out the Castlevania series, even though it truly belongs on there just because I couldn't pick one as being above all others (and even though I cheated with tri-Ace's games, I don't want to turn this into a favorite series list). I also left out the other two DKC games and the first Wonder Project J game, even though they are very important to me. My list contains a lot of games I grew up with and had a big impact on me. When I try to do a list like this, the best way I can think of it is by asking "What games give me a warm, gushy feeling when I think about them?" Some give me that feeling mostly because of nostalgia (besides the fact that they're great games), while others I played fairly recently like Marvelous. But all were so great that they burned the memory of the period in which I played them into my head. I'll never forget the last few days I lived in my mother's apartment which I had been living in for 10 years thanks to Marvelous, or the days in junior high when I wore a DKC2 sweatshirt to school and packed around the Chrono Trigger strategy guide. Good times. :)
