Earthworm Jim has aged rather badly. Bomberman is crap unless you have 3 other friends to play with.
Best game on the SNES. Super Metroid most definitely. As long as you remember to superbomb the underwater tunnel you won't get stuck for ages like me.
Other games worth a go:
Final Fantasy VI: Forget the FFVII crazies. This is by far the best in the series
Secret of Mana: Excellent little action RPG
Sparkster: Brilliant platformer
Axelay: Great shooter and excellent graphics
Demons Crest: Excellent and often underappreciated metroid type game. Beautiful graphics.
Super Ghouls n'Ghosts: Rock hard but a brilliant game
Chrono Trigger: Possibly the best RPG ever made
Soul Blazer, Illusion of Time and Terranigma: Brilliant trilogy of action RPGs
Earthbound: Great RPG from nintendo that rips the piss out of RPGs
Castlevania IV: great platformer
Actraiser: weird but brilliant fusion of platformer and sim city type building.
Well thats all I can think of at the time being.

6 posts and nobody has mentioned F-Zero?! You should be ashamed of yourselves :P
For shame indeed. Before there was Wipeout there was F-zero. And it was better.
Have to recommend against Another World. It's a great game but the Snes version was censored. Get the Megadrive or better yet the recently released PC update.
Listen to o1s1n. The capcom developed Disney games are excellent. The mickey mouse one in particular is great.
Forgot about Wild Guns as well.
The Thread in games reminded me about the excellent Plok!
Super Mario RPG and Yoshis Island tend to get over looked. Wonderful games.
Pilotwings looks boring but it's amazing especially the use of mode 7.
Anything by Konami and Capcom is usually worth getting even the licenses.
R-type 3 is another gem of a shooter as is Super Aleste.
The Firemen is another excellent game, so far the only decent firefighting game ever made. Well worth picking up and emulators glitch on it so worth tracking down for a real SNES.
Can't forget Cybernator. It was stupidly censored for the western market but I'm sure there is a translated rom under the jap name Assault Suit Leynoss.
God I love the SNES.

/edit - just bought Assault Suits Valken too. Fingers crossed it doesn't have any mad lockouts that a standard region adapter can't get around.
It's a class game. Rock hard though, only played a little of it but can't get off the second level. Nice you got the japanese version, you can see the enemy general blast his brains out. He may be 5 pixels high but it's still cool.
I really can't stress enough how good the firemen is. Didn't get an american release as well so along with terranigma and Lufia 2 (get the Lufia games
) it joins a very exclusive group or games released in Europe and not in america.
As for Another World, the biggy was the bathhouse scene but some gore was left out as well. The another world creator really wasn't happy with it.

17 posts and no mention of Zelda:A Link to the Past??
Disgusted! Serious nostalgia when I even hear a tune from it.
Others would include:
Legend of the Mystical Ninja
Secret of Mana
Contra 3 as another poster mentioned was a classic.
EDIT: Just opened the cubby hole in my room and found my SNES. With about 10+ games (including Zelda and Mystical Ninja)!! Hmmmm, will I crack it open?0 -
