One hidden gem I've NEVER heard anyone talk about is a japanese game called ""Whirlo". It wasnt released in the US and that's why very few people played it, but the game is absolutely awesome. You play as a green dude armed with a pitchfork, and it starts pretty humble: you are in your village trying to save your son from a curse that turns people into stone. As you progress you meet tons of charming characters with very cute stories. The game ends when you travel to the stars to fight the witch who cursed everyone. Some levels are very difficult (but not impossible) and the game never becomes annoying, as each level is pretty unique and fun to play.

I'm thinking things like Dragon Viewer, SOS, Clocktower, Starfox, Sutte Hakkun, Pocky and Rocky, or even things like Kirby which made people rethink platformers (I realize it came out before the SNES but just an example).
