What do you mean by re-released? Like on the VC?

I know there's a lot more, but I can't think of them right now.

Hmm, does the VC count as a re-release?

The VC counts.

Well, then I do have a pretty big list, but wouldn't it be more interesting to know who played these games on the original hardware?

VC games:
Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse
Donkey Kong Country
Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards
Kirby's Adventure
Kirby's Dream Land 3
The Legend of Zelda
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Mega Man
Mega Man 2
Mega Man 3
Metroid
Secret of Mana
Sonic the Hedgehog 2
Super Mario Bros.
Super Mario Bros. 2
Super Mario Bros. 2 (Japanese version)
Super Mario RPG: The Legend of the Seven Stars
Super Mario World
Super Metroid
Zelda II: The Adventure of Link

Wii games:
Metroid Prime
Metroid Prime 2: Echoes

PC games:
Age of Mythology
Age of Mythology: The Titans Expansion

I think that's all.

Super Mario Bros 2, and Metroid Prime (all 3) are all I can think of right now.

japan's super mario bros 2. when i played that pimp on the Super Mario Allstars back in the day i wanted to cry because how sick it was. still my favorite Mario game

I didn't play Pikmin until it got Wii controls, and I'm sure I've got a load of VC games to add to the list but who doesn't?

Well if you mean updated versions then the first ones that come to mind are Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes on GameCube and Super Mario AllStars on the SNES.

I think my next one will be Silent Hill. I've never played a Silent Hill game before so I'm very curious about it.

The wii version of RE4. It's fantastic!

Many nintendo classics including The Legend of Zelda:Ocarina of Time, most classic side-scrolling Mario games, the DS version of Super Mario 64, Metroid and Super Metroid (I'm currently playing the Wii VC version).

There's many more I probably forgot.
