Well my favourite games are very different from the more rounded selection they tend to put on these sort of things. But as long as it has Gate of Thunder, Lords/Winds of Thunder, Air Zonk and Ninja Spirit then we’re all good.
The PC-Engine is undoubtedly the toughest system for me to do one of these "name the best (X amount) of games" lists, there are just too many games I love on it. Will look forward to seeing what everyone else enjoys though!
I prefer PCE SFII’ to any other non-arcade version for some reason, so I’d want that on there. Parodius and all of the other shooters that everybody else will likely pick and I’ll be good.
Are we limiting to just HuCard games? I'm working under that assumption, and R-Type,Street Fighter II’, Parasol Stars,Parodius Da , Outrun, Bomberman '94 andNinja Spirit all get another vote each from me.
I'll also suggest Adventure Island (aka Wonder Boy III The Dragon's Trap, but on a PC Engine) and Detana!! Twin Bee (a fun cute 'em up).
[MENTION=15749]Protocol Penguin[/MENTION] You do realise that Wonder Boy III: The Dragon's Trap was ported to the PC Engine, don't you? It's called Dragon's Curse.

Just looked that up, that seems to be the name of the North American Turbografx-16 version – the PC Engine version which I own is called Adventure Island.

Which of course is super confusing as Adventure Island is, as we all know, the English name for the Takahashi Meijin games which are derived from Wonder Boy.
The following are my personal favourites and in no specific order. I've made a mixture up of different genre as well, as I could easily have 10 shooters alone.

Soldier Blade
Splatterhouse

Bomberman ‘94
Terra Cresta II
Son Son II

Cadash
