i love nintendos plan for each of their mario games, they made each game special. i wouldnt mind going back to mario 1, mario 2, mario 3, mario world, mario 64, mario sunshine, mario galaxy, new super mario bros ds/wii
i dont think any are better than the other. the only reason mario sunshine didnt do as well, is because what's the most unwanted part in a mario game? THE WATER LEVELS. but if you play more of it, you'll realize there is a lot of ground platforming in it :P
THEYRE ALL GREAT!!!
but the game that did open my eyes to an amazing new 3d environment was Mario 64. ^.-
