I don't think that it could really be narrowed down to 3 games. There are too many genres to cover. So I picked my Top 10. And yes, even though most of these aren't on Legacy Platforms, most of them have earlier games on Legacy Platforms:
Pokemon Heart Gold/Soul Silver (DS) - I know most people love the original Red and Blue, but I believe this is the definitive Pokemon game.
Bioshock (PC/360/PS3) - The best single player campaign you can get. Great atmosphere, interesting plot, and amazing gameplay.
Street Fighter IV (PC/PS3/360) - Fighting games at their finest.
Starcraft II (PC) - The perfect RTS. Also now the fastest growing eSport.
Team Fortress 2 (PC) - If you want to play a shooter online, this is the one to play. Considering now that it's free, there's no reason not to try it.
League of Legends (PC) - Great MOBA (aka DoTA) styled game. I've personally spend so much time playing this game with friends it's rediculous. Considering its free price tag, it's simply incredible.
Mario Kart Wii (Wii) - Who doesn't like Mario Kart? I used to play MK64 all the time with friends, but MKW is definitely the best in the series.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Wii) - Just a fun game to play with friends.
Super Mario World (SNES) - My favorite Mario game and my favorite platformer.
Chrono Trigger (SNES) - Absolutely great RPG. Everyone should play through this game once.
