Not sure how I'd rank them all. I would probably rank Golf, Baseball and Indy Heat dead last. The sports games were a bust for the most part. Ironsword is barely playable. Battletoads, Double Dragon, Isolated Warrior and Bubble Bobble were among the most fun. Really I've enjoyed most of the contest games even Lunar Pool.
Mighty Bomb Jack was a pleasant surprise considering how poorly it is rated on the internet. There's quite a bit of depth to it.
Yeah, its a sweet game. My overall rating of all contest games so far would be roughly this:
Cool list. Here's mine FWIW. Not ranked necessarily which games are the best or even my favorites, just how much I enjoyed playing them in this year's contests. There's a bit of a recency bias here.

Turns out I'm horrible at this game. I haven't even been able to get past the second level with the bouncing babies.
I'm not good either. Think I'm just having a hardtime getting into the game, so I play worse. It has a lot of cool concepts and with time I bet one could acheive behemoth scores.
I don't know if it's random or what, but there's a nice 100k bonus if you can get the naked baby to drop down in the upper left hand corner in level 2-2.

Not random. Just wait until the music speeds up and the baby will break out of the corner. I think he's worth 70k.

Okay, I figured it out. Touching both sun blocks makes the baby drop down, and then he breaks out of the corner once the music speeds up. You're right that it's only a 70k bonus.
I'm happy with my 4th place finish. That should also put me at 4th on the leader board. Thank goodness everybody was too busy this week to knock me down to 8th place.

They're easy if you keep moving and let them doodle themselves to death.

You were my main competitor this week. I had to keep checking your score in order to top it, haha. It took me a few days to get the hang of this game.
The artist music sticks in my head.
I also like the sumo guys music.
I learned a lot from the old contest thread.
