Wonder Project J (get the translation) - An awesome game where you have to teach a robot how to do things. Just get it and you'll see.
Parodius - If you're a Gradius fan you'll know this, if you're a shooter fan you should know this. If you don't know this, get this. Better and more fun than Gradius and fifteen times more bizarre.
Legend of the Mystical Ninja - Best Goemon out there if you ask me. Great in single or in two player. Infinately more playable on an emulator with save since you don't need to write down the 7000 character save code.
Super Street Fighter 2 - Most consider Hyper Fighting (or Turbo) to be the best, but y'know, I like Fei Long and Cammy is kinda hot, so I personally think this is the best. If it were as fast as Turbo then it would win hands down.
Flashback - Sequel to Another World (Out of this World in the US) this is very similar in its roto styling, but more action orientated. If you like the original Prince of Persia, but would like a good story, great graphics and altogether good sci-fi fun , then this is your game.
Another World - Like Flashback, only harder and more annoying, but I had some great times on this game way back when. It is hard, but don't let that put you off. It is rewarding and has a great atmosphere.
Super Ghouls and Ghosts - Not sure why this hasn't been mentioned yet, but its possibly the hardest game ever, but enormously fun. I don't know why its always so satisfying getting the gold armour, but since it doesn't happen too often, I always think I'm king. Annoyingly long (none-skippable) intro gets in the way, but speed up emulation has fixed another one.
Add in your above said Marios, Zeldas, Metroids, Manas and so on and you have yourself a pretty darn good collection making all those flashy PSP games look like the crap they really are. Oh if there wasn't emulation my PSP would be in the bin.
Thank you TYL!
