You may have already played them, but Super Metroid, the Donkey Kong Country series and Kirby's Super Star are pretty essential.
I also really enjoy Pocky & Rocky. It's especially fun to play with a friend.

For liscensed games, the Super Star Wars games were a lot of fun. Ramminchuck mentioned them. In fact, most of the good ones are listed, so I will throw in Final Fantasy II (that's the American II, don't recall the Japanese number).
My brother and I tag-teamed that game, one of us watching, one of us playing. Story was awesome (or, at least, nostalgia says so).

So many great ones already mentioned but lemme see what I can add:
Joe and Mac
Superman: Doomsday
Simcity
Super Punch Out
Not many but some fun games there.
