We're doing it like this thread. My reasons are mainly the same as butterfli's, so I thought, why not?

Code:
Title | Genre | Subgenre | Platform

I'll be updating it in three different posts:

1. PC
2. Consoles
3. Handhelds

Trivia:

FPS: First Person Shooter
MMORPG: Massive Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game
MOBA: Multiplayer Online Battle Arena
RPG: Role-Playing Game
RTS: Real Time Strategy
Shmup: Shoot 'em up
TBS: Turn-Based Strategy
TCG: Trading Card Game

EDIT: Added Sega consoles (in the rare case I have to add the Saturn or the Dreamcast) under PC because the Console post will get too clogged up.

They're listed formally as "Action-Adventure" as far as I'm aware.

Seconding Starcraft, World of Goo, Smash Bros., and Super Mario RPG.

Then,

Okami | Action/Adventure | PS2 (also Wii, but not so much)
Terranigma | RPG, Action | SNES
Star Ocean 3 | RPG | PS2
Metal Gear Solid | Action | PS1
Metal Gear Solid 2 | Action | PS2
Katamari Damacy | ? | PS2
We <3 Katamari | ? | PS2
Super Mario Galaxy | Platforming | Wii
Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure | Puzzle | Wii
Psychonauts | Action/Adventure | Multiplatform
Braid | Puzzle | PC
Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask | Action/Adventure | N64
Odin Sphere | Action | PS2
Valerye Profile | RPG | PS1
Dark Cloud 2 | Action, RPG | PS2
Chrono Trigger | RPG | SNES
Ace Attorney Trilogy | Text Adventure | DS, Wii
Tales of the Abyss | RPG | PS2
Paper Mario: Thousand Year Door | RPG | Gamecube
Metroid Prime | Action/Adventure, FPS, Platforming | Gamecube
Banjo-Kazooie | Action/Adventure | N64
Shadow of the Colossus | Action/Adventure | PS2


And I'll stop for now to double check my media cabinet so as to not list everything I have and only a few of the better ones. I have intentionally missed some, since I don't want to take all the usual favorites.

EDIT: Seconding Link's Awakening DX, A Link to the Past, Ocarina of Time, and Twilight Princess. Anti-Recommend the Adventures of Link. Also, Collector's Edition isn't really a game. It just compiles some of the older ones you already mentioned, and it was never sold retail to begin with, just promotional.
