If these haven't been suggested already:
- Breath of Fire I and II, above average jRPGs with decent story, a day/night system which actually affects the world and an interesting town-building system
- Live a Live, weird title aside, it's probably one of the greatest jRPGs to ever grace the SNES. You basically have to live seven-eight lives in different time periods (from Stone Age to future), lots of variety in the gameplay, tons of secrets and sidequests (one of the chapters can be played in at least three different ways) and a good story
- Shin Megami Tensei I and II, I can't recommend these games enough. Wonderful, wonderful RPGs (amateur english translations available).
- Romancing SaGa 3, one of the few really nonlinear RPGs where you choices actually matter. Tons of sidequests, a good skill system, some great side activities (like the one where you get to be the ruler of a city, if I'm not mistaking). Romancing SaGa 2 is even better, too bad it's not translated.
- Mad Max Returns, doubtlessly the most open-ended SNES rpg I've ever played. You can do anything from hunting outlaws to furnishing your own house.
- Terranigma, great storyline, becomes very nonlinear once you get past the mediocre beginning.
