Mario 64 has been regarded as one of the greatest games and launch titles in history. World is a great game however at the time, Mario 64 was in another league. If you played Mario 64 on release you would know exactly what i mean.

Just to add, when World came out, it was coming off Mario Bros 3 which was considered the best game of the 8 bit gen. Playing World wasnt as huge if you played 3 before it. M64 was a completely different story.

Mario 64 was a revolution, not just a great game.

Super Mario World easily. Not only is the game better and more iconic, but it simply has aged pretty well. Mario 64 has aged horribly.

Easily Mario World. I'd say it does an amazing job in every category except power-ups and bosses. Mario 64 is still a good game though!

Super Mario World is a lot more fun to me, but that's not surprising.

2D-sidescrollers were established and matured when SMW came out and it was basically the pinnacle of the genre. M64 on the other hand was Nintendo's first 3D-platformer released on hardware that didn't allow the same obstacle density for example.

Funny thing is that M64 was nothing like SMW and newer 3D Marios come closer to SMW in terms of the general formula.

Difficult choice but I'm going to go with Super Mario World.

Best 2D mario ever made!

Super Mario World.

I'm a sucker for 2D Mario :P

Hard choice I can't make it.

Mario 64, this one's easy.

I said in the other thread that 64 is the best 3D platformer and Yoshi's Island the best 2D platformer ever, so with Mario 64 winning the last one this is no contest. Moreover, I actually never really liked World much, Mario Bros. 3 is way better as well.

SMW

SM3DW is the less creative Mario game in my opinion.

Close vote!

If you mean "least", then I concur.
