50 - Probably the most out-of-left-field one on my list and the only game I'd argue is 'bad'. Dinosaurs and vore. Also it has an arcade version that's trash. 
49 - WHAT AM I FIGHTING FOOORRRRRRR?!
48 - IT's a weird game that straddles the line between being grounded and so serious it makes you cry being kind of absurd and outlandish, especially in its DLC.
47 - Honestly, in terms of 2D Platformers this is honestly the pinnacle of its series in terms of level and world design even though most people seem to dislike it.
46 - Retro revival done right. It's not shovel knight but I think it's just as good, taking from a different set of NES and SNES games and styles.

#50) Bubble Bobble? I don't know about the game's quality, but that's the one game ported from arcades I can think of that combines Dinosaurs and Vore.

#49) Mega Man X4?

#46) I'm guessing Shantae and the Pirate's Curse. Your Shovel Knight comparison made me think of 2D platforming games released around the same time, and Shantae is one of those while taking different inspirations than Shovel Knight.
