I used to prefer Mario spin-offs to the main series games, but lately Nintendo has been doing a pretty awful job with all of them not named Mario Kart (and even that one still has issues). The mainseries is fine and all, but they really should take better care of the spin-offs. Anyway, I actually haven't played all that many of the older Mario platformers, but I don't think it'd change my top 5.

1. Sunshine
2. 3D World
3. 3D Land
4. Mario Maker
5. Super Paper Mario (it's a platformer so it counts!)
