If it has to be one of those 3 then I'd get Mario Sunshine, simply because the other two are more readily available cheaply in 2nd hand shops and they all make a good purchase.
Pikmin is one most people would praise even if it is on the small side so that's one to save cash on if you can.
Rouge Leader and Sunshine are both a bit on the repetitive side but if you have any Star Wars/shoot 'em up interest in you then grab a copy of the first at a good price. If you do opt for Sunshine then brace yourself for the gradual realisation that it falls some way short of the quality of previous Mario games - good though it still is.

Eternal Darkness, I haven't played.
Timesplitters 2, great game, forgot to add it :D.
Super Monkey Ball 2, if this is anything like the first one, then it should be noted it's an acquired taste. Not really a must buy.

Nothing at all. It's a really good game IMO - but some people don't like it, it's very short, and a bit repetitive. Still definately worth buying, but it isn't as good as Super Mario Sunshine, Resident Evil, Eternal Darkness, SSBM, etc.
If you can buy a preowned or cheap copy, though, I'd suggest that you play it.

GAMES
Super Mario Sunshine

Star Wars Rogue Leader: Rogue Squadron 2
Memory Card (Preferably the Official 251 Blocks)

Quite obviously you should get Mario Sunshine, and definately not Pikmin.
