Those are all mature systems, and I'd say that rankings for games on old systems are reasonably consensus at this point. You can just search for "best system whatever games" and get lists, look for games in genres you like; I've had luck doing that in the past, as that avoids a lot of the chaff.

I personally probably have gone back and played Super Metroid the most on the SNES, but depends on what one likes. If you like RPGs from that era, different set of games.

For this ranking of SNES games, as an example:

https://www.ign.com/lists/top-100-snes-games/92

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Chrono Trigger
Super Metroid
Final Fantasy VI
Super Mario World

I'd say that probably those games are going to cluster near the top of any list of SNES games.
