I don't think the arcade version of X-Men was ported to the Genesis. Did you ever see the orignal six player arcade game for that? It was huge!
FFV annoyed me because when I would change jobs, I had to change equipment so I'd have to grind to save up to buy what they could use. Got old after a while.
Super Mario Land 2 isn't too hard of a game. And Kirby's Dream Land is even easier! You'll be able to beat that one. I could in an hour. It wasn't the original game that got me into Kirby games anyway.
My friend and I rented Contra 3 a few times back in the day. I was horrible at it, but it did have some neat graphic effects for such an early SNES title.
For Mega Man V, I'd start with Star Man's stage. He's the easiest. Charge Man isn't too hard once you get his pattern down.
Mega Man X is one of the easier Mega Man games, mainly because he's way more mobile and faster than the original Mega Man. You can climb up walls for instance. The original MMX is one of my top favorite Mega Man games. I can beat it in my sleep.
