Take some time to play its classics before hating it. I recommend Super Metroid, Link to the Past, Star Fox, and Yoshi's Island. If you've already played those and still hate the SNES, then damn.
(the title is a joke, read later in the thread)

Like most Nintendo consoles, there aren't a whole lot of games on the SNES that aren't first party titles that are worth getting the system for. This is especially true if you don't like RPGs, as that is one of the standout genres on the system. I have about 30 games for the system, and probably 20 of them are first party titles.
Specifically, I've found that most third-party arcade ports play better (but sometimes look worse) on the Genesis becasue the Genesis runs twitch-style arcade games at a faster clip.
So yeah, I hear you. Still, it is probably one of my favorite Nintendo consoles. I'd rank the strength of their libraries thus:
1) NES
2) SNES
3) Wii
4) GCN
5) N64
