Its usually a good rule of thumb to look at who published the game, Capcom, Konami, Nintendo, etc. Reputable publishers that are STILL making games today usually made the best quality games then. Check out racketboy.com for a good list and google best snes/nes games. You'll generally find that most people agree which ones are the best. Try to avoid most movie based games although some are good but the cutesy, cartoony platformers are best for the most part. Also check out nesguide.com and snesguide.com

I have to laugh because everyone always insults me about the fact that i've never played Zelda.
I remember that I had Donkey Kong Country and i loved it. Zelda looked stupid to me. I could play Dungeons and Dragons if i wanted rpg stuff (i said to my cousin.) I always liked Mario and DK style games the best. I also got into sports games. I started trying RPG much later.
NES
Super Mario Bros. 3
Gunsmoke
Duck Hunt
never played other NES games.
