You guys forgot Rad Racer 2. Square published this sequel actually (not Nintendo), but I didn't think it was as good as the original.

You also forgot Vagrant Story (PSX), a hack 'n' slay with some RPG elements; despite its average GFX I really like it. It has agood atmosphere, challenging bosses and a neat combo system. I'm playing it atm, but saw the game over logo quite often; the weapons have masses of attributes and affinities and need to be prepared well when encountering bosses. The music and game-play are ass-kicking for me ... if you like fumbling hours of optimizing your weapon(s) and fighting hard enemies

Vagrant Story, Threads of Fate, Front Mission series are all RPGs

As for a games that aren't RPGs
Ehergeiz DID have an RPG mode, but it was just a Diablo rip off. But for the most part it was just a fighter game with Square characters

Einhander was a shooter that was very similar to Sol Feace for the Sega Genesis/Sega CD. The thing that was really cool was that it was fully 3D and had some really cool gameplay.

Tobal 1 and 2 are fighters though they had an adventure mode like Ehergeiz, though it didn't play like Diablo. It was more like the Bouncer.

The Bouncer was a Beat-em up, with RPG elements such as leveling up.

Chocobo Racing is just a racing game like Super Mario Kart, but there are TONS of character.

Bushido Blade series is a fighter game series like Virtua Fighter, it is a button masher. I didn't like it though.

As for the other games, I don't know much about them.

Bushido Blade a button masher?!?!?!?!?!
I'm a cronicly hardcore button masher, and that's the only one I never button mash! Sure you could get lucky, but that's just crazy talk.
