I'm not too familiar with these games. What are the standout titles here, and what makes them so good? And because this is the internet I feel the need to say I'm not being critical here--just genuinely interested in learning about these old SNK games.

They are all old 2D arcade/console games from the Neo-Geo platform (released in 1989 and retired in early 2000s), except for a couple of the newer King of Fighters games. People of a certain age have a fondness for those games. Basically if you went to arcades in the 1990s you probably knew these games. The hardware was very similar to Sega Genesis/Megadrive but the games were huge, very expensive and had great sound and graphics.
Most of the games were fighting games as it was the era of Street Fighter 2 and Mortal Kombat and fighting games were the big games of the era.
There are also some run & gun games (Metal Slug series), shoot 'em ups (Pulstar, Blazing Star), a top-down shooter (Shock Troopers), a beat 'em up (Sengoku 3), and a baseball game.

As post above mentions, these are older, mainly 90's to early 00's games (except for KOF XIII).
If you like old-school fighting games, or side-scrolling run & gun games, it's worth getting some of them.
The Metal Slug series are a fun challenge, 2D side scrolling run&gun games (even more fun playing local or online co-op - I personally played MS3, and it was great).
The King of Fighters series are a solid 2D fighting game, much like the old Street Fighter games, but known for their cool 3-on-3 system.
There's also a mix of beatem-ups, shmups and top-down shooters in there, as well as many more fighting games.
Some of the other games are bad ports of the original games, or are a bit "weird", especially if you don't have any nostalgia for them.
If I had to recommend 5 games to give ya a bit of diversity, I'd go with:
Anyway, I hope that helps.
