They're not always the best games. They're just my favorite for one reason or another. This list isn't in any particular order and I'm going to go for the more obscure stuff first, since no one needs to see a list that says "OH MAN SUPER MARIO WORLD IS AWESOME."
That said, Super Mario World is awesome.

This was the game I thought of when Wing Commander got big. "Oh, they're just making a better Star Raiders."
When it comes to my favorite fighting game of all-time, it's either this, Tekken 2, or SF2T.
Hard, but good. I got to a point where I could finish it without cheating, but being invincible made the game a lot more fun.
Played this on a C64. I remember later hacking my save games to give myself more money, which didn't seem like cheating since it was in the spirit of the game.
Those Epyx dudes were so, so talented back in the C64 days. Jumpman and Jumpman Jr. were the games that made me want a C64 in the first place.
Specifically, the Atari 400/800 or the Apple II versions.
I feel like Geometry Wars surpassed it in a couple of ways, but Smash TV is still the world's greatest all-around dual joystick shooter.
I still have disks and disks full of tables I created or downloaded for PCS. Hope they still work...
This is the game were my Honda started getting better than my Ken.
I don't know that I ever actually finished this game.
