It might have set the basics but pretty much every rival platformer (even on the N64) raped it afterwards. It aged terribly and lets be honest, the sales where helped by the brand name a lot.

Conquer, Banjo, Crash, Sonic... during those times all of these platformer series released far superior entries than Mario. Dont take it as an insult, take it as an honest opinion, from somebody who is gaming for ~20 years now


Lol no, sales were help by the fact it was a great game that laid the foundations for future 3d games, the fact that every "rival" platfomer afterward used it's design highlights this. I'm not going to bother getting into which platformer is better and so on but Sonic? Lol no.
