Default Best RPG games for SNES? (and non-RPG games too!)

as the title reads, what are best games for SNES?
I've recently dug up my old SNES - still working well, of course - and I've completely forgot how good these games were!!

I'm going to an used game store around my place tomorrow (they had bunch of SNES games on sale, 10 games for 3 bucks) and grab some games to play.

Any tips on what I should look for?

EDIT: and any other games worth keeping??

I actually just set up my SNES recently, and I've been playing some of the below.

Shadowrun
Chrono Trigger
Breath of Fire
Secret of Mana
Secret of Evermore

I feel like I'm missing some.

I have some of the games mentioned above, such as FF series, Chrono trigger (best rpg game - perhaps ever, IMO), BOF, and zelda. I'll try to grab as many games as I can


EDIT: I completely forgot about dragon quest!!
I can read japanese fairly well, so feel free to recommend some japanese-only games!

Super Empire Strikes Back was pretty cool. My collection of SNES games is pretty weak, and that was my favorite game. Knight of the Round Table is a good arcade beat-em up, with two player co-op, which is pretty fun. Probably my favorite type of game, the best example being Aliens vs Predator in the arcade. That sucked up a lot of quarters.
If you get nostalgic for the SNES, you could buy a USB adapter, and play games on your computer with the SNES controller. Lots of fun. I purchased one from:

Super Mario is a must, that game used to drive me crazy !!!!!! I finished it in the end and found all the hidden levels but at one stage I was just playing it non-stop.

Not sure if it counts as an RPG, but it's one of the best damn SNES games ever: Zelda - A Link to the Past.
