Maybe we can discover some new games that we might enjoy.
Anyway, I usually like to play Kyodai Mahjongg(PC), Bookworm(PC), and my favorite console puzzle game is Tetris Attack(SNES).

Tetris, Tetris Attack, Puyo Puyo, and Bust a Move. I stck with the established ones, or at least find them to be the most fun.

Dr. Mario (NES), New Tetris (N64), Tengen Tetris (NES), Pieces (SNES), Palamedes (NES) for abstract. For more action-oriented stuff, things like Bubble Bobble (NES), Adventures of Lolo series (NES), Splash Lake (TG-16 CD), etc. are good.

Mario's Picross, hands down. It's not a typical puzzle game. You fill in a grid with a chisel to make pictures using numbers on either side as a reference. It's crazy-fun and addictive. Only on Game Boy in the U.S., but there is a Super Famicom version too, and a few MAME arcade iterations.
Tengen's NES Tetris is my second choice. Two-player simultaneous, better music, and funny animations of Russian dancers!

Tetris Attack, Puzzle Fighter, and an nes one I think it is called "Pipe Dreams?" you arrange tiles so that ooze flows from start to finish pretty neat game, and that puzzle game that comes with Windows XP Plus! its not on my system so I don't know the name.

Dr. Mario
Tetris Blast/Attack/original
Super Puzzle Figher 2 Turbo (PS)-My Favorite puzzle game out there or that was ever made. I would love a couple sequels of it on the PS2 or even some to be ported over from Japan.
Bust-a-Move
Chu Chu Rocket
Pokemon Puzzle Leage-pretty fun if you forget about all of the Pokemon, because they can get a little annoying after a while.
Bust-a-Groove was a fun wierd Parrapa the Rapper puzzle game.

Tetris / Dr.Mario (SNES)
Saturn Bomberman (Sega Saturn)
Nintendo Puzzle Collection (GCN)
Those games are all tied for best in my mind. I also like Puyo Pop, Puzzle Fighter, and Bust a Move... but they fall slightly below the mark established in the 3 I mentioned. Nintendo Puzzle Collection is probably the best of the 3 if you get that Hori controller that looks like an SNES one, but with the standard controller, it's just equal.

I'm a big fan of Devil Dice and Intelligent Qube, but have actually been playing "Tall Infinity" lately -- except for eBay, I have never seen this Agtec budget title anywhere else.
It is very Devil Dice like, with some IQ visual elements thrown into the mix.

My local TRU still has 1 copy of Chu Chu Rocket left for DC. If its as good as everyone says I might have to check it out. I'd also like to recomend Devil Crush for the TG-16.

Does anyone remember a DONKEY KONG game for old school gameboy, where it was just level after level of donkey kong, but every level was different? I think it was 9 levels to an area and there were 9 or 10 areas (fire, ice, water, all that junk) and you had to jump around as mario and move blocks and stuff, make certain enemies go certain places. A lot of it was solving puzzles to pick up a key to open the door at the top, if you ever find it, pick it up!!!!! I was like 70 levels in or something when i stopped playing, it belonged to a friend of mine. When you got to the later stages, the game actually got a little difficult, it really made you think.
OBSUCRE BUT GREAT GAME!!!

I got zoocube for GBA for 10 bucks at BB and I've loved it. Also Zoop is a great game, I wish I could find the gamegear version for cheap.

NO ONE CAN STOP MR. DOMINO!
No One Can Stop Mr. Domino! is a puzzle game at heart, but it's hard to include it with games that are strictly all puzzle (endless mode, no real objective) , but that game is a lot of fun and deserves a sequel.

Tetris of course. Though I almost think Splinter Cell should fall into the puzzle category.

It's hard to decifer what is stealth, strategy, and puzzle... so many games toe the line like Prince of Persia, Lemmings, or Mario vs. DK
