There were and are so many, but the most beloved, both in the Elizabethan and Modern Eras, would be 'Hamlet', which is far and away the most performed, filmed and quoted of all of Shakespeare's plays. Other popular plays in his era included 'Othello', 'Romeo and Juliet', 'Midsummer Night's Dream', 'King Richard III', 'Henry V', 'The Taming of the Shrew' and 'The Tempest' - amongst many others. It's unclear exactly how many times these shows were put on or how many people attended, but considering their maintained popularity, one would assume these plays to be the 'major', as you put it.
