I liked seeing Star Fox in the top 10 because it validates my belief that Star Fox 64 is the ONLY Nintendo 64 game that would attain the same level of critical acclaim if it was released today (and as of now, it's my 2nd favorite game from that generation, only behind Mario 64 and StarCraft).
Even then, the only "bad" choices in the top 10 seem to me to be Street Fighter II, Super Mario Kart, and Star Fox. Probably MMX, DKC2, and FFIV/Earthbound would be better choices, but I haven't played any game on this list aside from the top 5 and the #7 so yeah.
I was surprised not seeing Super Metroid at #1 (or even #2) seeing how all of IGN's "Top 100 Games" lists had Super Metroid higher than anything else in the SNES library. Oh well, their top 4 would be the same as my top 4 (though not the same order), and I was kinda upset when I saw A Link to the Past at #1 even though I consider it to be a god-tier game. It's probably because I'm more a fan of LttP due to it being a huge 16-bit action-adventure with plenty of cool weapons to use and magic spells to cast to get through the extremely well-crafted dungeons and because the game excels at being both cheery and gritty all at once (I feel the same way about titles like CT and Super Metroid) than I am because "it's Legend of Zelda". Also LttP just feels far more action-packed to me than later games in the series do.
