Runner-ups are in brackets, if you didn't figure that out.
Also, I (obviously, since I was born in '96) didn't play each one of these in their respective release years. In fact, I played most of these for the very first time less than three years ago.

Sonic CD was awesome. If I extended my list to 1993 I'd give Sonic CD and Mega Man X a tie.
It's odd to see Metroid Prime 2 (the worst of the trilogy) make your list, but Metroid Prime 1 & 3 didn't. Great Mid-90's. choices.
