Just bought an extremely old looking (yellowed plastic) SNES with two controllers and all the cables for $40 and shipping. It has 6 games (Actraiser (never played, but the game was pretty good on my emulator), Street Fighter 2...and a couple of no name games). I also added Mortal Kombat 1, 2, 3 and Starfox (found it in a pawn shop up here)!

What other games should I add?

I know that games like:
Earthbound (I had a copy, and ended up selling it to a collector - I ran across it after my SNES stopped working)
Final Fantasy 3 (played it, beat it...not really my thing)
Super Punch Out
Smash TV (will probably pick it up, but it's expensive...!)

Any other games I should check out?

.....................zelda, link to the past? one of the best adventure games of all time, i say.
i also loved super mario all-stars.
one of my friends really loved mario paint, and you can find youtube videos of people covering things with mario paint composer.
if you beat ff3us, and didn't think it was hot stuff, there's not much else i've tried that i could recommend ><

I'm collecting old SNES games too atm, just can't seem to find the Donkey Kong games, Chrono Trigger, the Lufia series and the Tales of series or SF2 anywhere for a decent price.. (I'm not paying 90euro's for a fking snes game, like here on some dutch ebay alternative)

I do have the Super Mario World 1 + 2. And super mario allstars, without smw. Super Mario kart, Zelda Link to the Past and Mario Paint, but I still need to find a SNES mouse for it.
Those games have my recomendations

Oh, and while we're at it, the final fantasy games, and the Breath of Fire games are worth it too btw. Still haven't found those either.

Wabsta, my list looks like a "who's who" of fighting games. Seriously disturbed, since I'm not a great fighting game player. (Killer Instinct, MK 1-3, Street Fighter 2 (probably would get the Hyper Fighting edition...)

Just remembered about TMNT Turtles in Time for that game. Fucking amazing.

    Here's a fun fact: The human brain is immensely complicated. For example, whenever you want to make a decision, I believe your unconscious mind processes it first, and makes your muscles prepare. Then, you perform the action, such as walking.
