Forums - Nintendo Discussion - best Mario Game... and worst

Best - Super Mario Bros. (3 is a very close second, the tie breaker, SMB was the first game that scrolled! you had to be there to understand the impact, it was just so amazing!)
note* because of how Defender and later Empire Strikes back operated I don't consider them the same thing, they didn't scroll objects apeared on the one screen, it was a well done trick/concept..

Worst - SMBL 2 6 Golden Coins , Marios jump was way to funky.

Around the Network

Best - Super Mario World, Sprite gaming at its finest.

Worst - I'll have to say Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island - Sadly the Sequel to Super Mario World was less than magical. Having to escort your annoying crying baby of a hero around a world looking like it was more or less drawn by a toddler is less than my vision of a "great" game.



Why must JRPG female leads suck so bad?

Best - 64
Worst - SMB2

Nintendo Network ID: Sherlock99

Of course, Hotel Mario is the absolute worst.

Is Yoshi's Island cannon though?

I cant choose which is the worst. NO

I will say SMW is my fav.



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

Best - Super Mario World
Worst - Mario 64



 

 

 

 

 

i have played only 1 mario game so i have to say: Super Mario Bros 1. But i bet my opinnion would change if i ever get to play Mario Galaxy



There are no worst mario platformers, just less great



Best Overall: Super Mario Bros. 3

Worst Main Game: Super Mario Sunshine (the gameplay was good but as a game i hated it because of the kiddy Barny-ish messages, all of the other ones in the main series were not as cheesy as this one)...

Worst Overall: Hotel Mario...
