A few pages in the Video Game Settings index are using multi-part images, but don't have links -hottip'd or otherwise- to their various sources (see Amazing Technicolor Battlefield, Minecart Madness, and Palmtree Panic for pages where this is done):

I'm not sure if this is in the right board, but I figure an image-related problem goes in Image Pickin', even if none of the images need replacing.

The middle one on Abandoned Laboratory is BioShock. I added a hottip to the caption, since we have a complete set.

[up]Funny, that was my first guess.

Still sorting through these, but one other one I immediately recognise is the one on the left in the third row of Bubblegloop Swamp, which is Umihara Kawase.

I'd suggest marking the ones in the OP that are filled up as COMPLETE or cutting them out as they're knocked out.

EDIT: In Bubblegloop Swamp, the top right is one of the Castlevania games, possibly the first one on the SNES.

EDIT #2: In Underground Level, the top left pic is Super Mario 3.

The best way to do these is to hottip the sources and Pot Hole the name of the level to the game source. Or at least, that's my favorite way of doing it.

Fight smart, not fair.

Bubblegloop Swamp: Top right is Super Castlevania IV. Second down on the left is Alien Soldier.

Build Like an Egyptian: I'm not certain, but middle row, right image kind of looks like one of the Quest For Glory games.

Gangplank Galleon: Specifically Donkey Kong Country 2 and Castlevania III.

Slippy-Slidey Ice World: Top left I would assume is the Super Mario All Stars remix of Super Mario Bros 2

Temple of Doom: I'm not sure the exact Metroid Game, but I'd hazard a guess that it's Metroid Zero Mission. It looks like a GBA game, at the very least. I am quite certain the Wario game is Wario Land 4.

Underground Level: I think that's actually the Super Mario All Stars remix of Super Mario Bros., not Super Mario 3. The middle image on the left side... I believe that is Plok.

Level Ate: Huh, these have me mostly stumped. I thought the bottom left corner was Populous. Top Left I suspect is a Parodius game, but again, not actually certain.

Don't take life too seriously. It's only a temporary situation.

We have a complete set for Bubblegloop Swamp. I just went to add a hottip to the caption and noticed there was a comment there formatted to expect level names in addition to game names.

Should I go ahead and add just the game names for now, or should we try to come up with level names as well?

I'd stick with just game names.

I added the captions there. It looks like we've got good identifications for all of Gangplank Galleon and Underground Level, so those are done. The page code on Slippy-Slidey Ice World identifies the top left as Super Mario Advance, which has identical graphics to the All-Stars version of SMB2; I'm going to stick with what was there originally, but we have a complete set there now too.

Looking at Build Like an Egyptian, the right side of the second row is Quest For Glory III.

You're also correct on both counts for Temple of Doom.

The bottom right on Level Ate is either Kuru Kuru Kururin or its sequel Kururin Paradise.

(Many edits later:)

It looks like we need: the bottom right of Build Like an Egyptian, the bottom left of Temple of Doom, and the top left and centre right of Level Ate.

Giving this a bump, we still need the bottom right of Build Like an Egyptian.

Bump...title and link changed to reflect need for info. It's not Final Fantasy V, is it?

It is not. No one in that game is a redhead - in fact the readheadedness of that guy makes me suspect it's from one of the Ys games (basically all I know about that series is "the hero is a redhead".)

I want to say Crystalis, but the graphics are too 16-bit for it.

Similar sprite style, though, Spriters Resource suggests it's from Ys. It has 15-bit color values, that definitely implies it's SNES.

Bingo: The player sprite and border graphic matches Ys 4: Mask of the Sun videos on You Tube.

Well then, that's it. Ys is a series page, so I'll go update that right now.

...ooooor you can already have done that! We're done here, then.
