Let's not forget Turbo CD/PC Engine CD is the first CD add-on for a console and as much as I love SEGA. Turbo CD had a better library than SEGA CD. In fact, TCD had a stellar library of RPGs/Shmups esp.

I personally thought Sega CD had a pretty good lineup. Sonic CD was great, I like it more than Sonic 1 and 2. Got some nice adventure games like Jurassic Park, Willy Beamish, and Sherlock Holmes: Consulting Detective. SoulStar and Sewer Shark were both great rail shooters. Games that released on both Genesis and CD had much better soundtracks on CD, games like Ecco: The Tides of Time, Terminator, Samurai Showdown, and NBA Jam (all great games with even better soundtracks on CD). Got a few nice RPG's, Shining Force CD, Shin Megami Tensei, and Shadowrun, though sadly most of them didn't make it west, only Shining Force CD did. 

Lunar, Lunar 2, and Popful Mail were the cream of the Sega CD crop IMO. I'd call the first two games my favorite 16-bit Sega games.
