I still have my first GB. Still have all my systems all sealed away . But I play all my GB games on my GBA SP.
They were all Mega Drive people down here in the West Midlands, but people soon bought SNES's towards the end of the 16 bit era. I never got one as i was a young SEGA fan-boy back then (idiot!), though like you lot no-one bought the Saturn or Dreamcast and everyone had the PSX (including me - that was when i dropped the fan-boy thing and chose the console on the games - shock/horror!!)
Does anyone have a Neogeo pocket color or B/W?
They were released the same day as the dreamcast in the UK but flopped really badly. I spotted them in GAME and some random shops and actually convinced a few friends to get one. They soon dropped to £30 and the games were £12 so i picked one up. In hindsight they're only a slight an improvement on gameboy colors but there are some fantastic games available for it.
You can't go wrong with Sonic pocket adventure, King of fighters r2 or Card fighters clash.
There was a Metal Slug on it yea, I've only played these on emulator though... Never even seen one in real life! Saw some of the games in EB/Game though.
Lets see...
Contra 3
Breath of Fire 2
Zelda : LttP
All the MMX games
Yoshi's Island is the best Mario game for the SNES to me. I couldn't get into SMW.
Secret of Evermore
Super Metroid
Overall, I'd probably say that Evermore is my favorite. It's a strange choice (especially with my dislike of most Square games) but something about that game really struck me.

You'll probably love Secret of Mana then. It's a very similair game. Heck, it even uses some of the exact same graphics! The engine of Secret of Mana is pretty kind of a better Secret of Evermore engine.
Yoshis island and all the other SNES/NES mario games are way too hard for me, never got far in them
Except for mario land on the GB where I got to the boss
I remember king of dragons being pretty darn easy . . . lol - was awesome though from what i remember =].
I have too many favorites to list but some include what others have said.
mmx 1 - I need to go try claim the world record time on this >>. I beat this game 10+ times one day when I was bored x_x.
Zelda - Link to the Past. Why people play OoT over this I will never know. OoT is the biggest overrated pile of horseshit ever. Not a bad game, but overrated as fuck.
super mario rpg <3
ff2/3 (US) <3. FF2 is so easy to pick up and play, ff3 is amazing in its own right.
secret of mana (wow this game got progressively better)
secret of evermore - some pretty tight environments in this, and mana.
star fox - n64 version is good, but has nothing on this one =D.
Terranigma!~ Wow this game had some amazing environments.
Tales of Phantasia - didn't play far, but its tales of!
Seiken Densetsu 3 looked pretty good. Legendary graphics
Killer Instinct <3
Theres prob a lot more that I can't think of atm.
Chrono Trigger
Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy Kong's Quest
Earthbound
Kirby Super Star
Megaman X
NBA Jam
Street Fighter II: Turbo
Super Mario Kart
Super Mario RPG
Super Mario World
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island
Super Metroid
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IV: Turtles in Time

I've always been in love with Harvest Moon. When I first played it I jsut had a feeling of total immersion.

Wash your mouth out young man, Harvest Moon SNES was rife with earthen beauty! The lighting alone was glorious. I agree with you completely on the other installments, mind, which have a markedly different style.
The ugliest thing about HM SNES was the translation.
