11.13.12 | bring on the hate. i know this will be different than a lot of people but mario sunshine is so underrated i feel it deserves to be at the number 2 spot. |
Keyblade
11.13.12 | How can 6 be so low bro. Hooooow |
SgtPepper
11.13.12 | No Mario Kart: Double Dash? I loved that game. |
Atari
11.13.12 | @Keyblade, you have no idea how hard this list was to make as i love almost all these games but yeah actually i think i'd switch 5 and 6 now that i think about it. |

11.13.12 | jump jump dlldz dllldz dllllldz |
Atari
11.13.12 | @Paperback,not counting the mario karts just the classic mario save the princess kill bowser ones ;) besides ther'es like 5 mario karts lol i include 1 i have to include them all |
SgtPepper
11.13.12 | Yeah, you're right. List is great, man. Mario never gets old. |
Atari
11.13.12 | thanks paper yeah agreed same with zelda :)
@Captain, of course i do man. so many good memories agreed |
Masochist
11.13.12 | #1 isn't #1, and #2 isn't #2. Give it to Super Mario 3, Super Mario World or Super Mario 64.
Me and a revolving group of about five other people played through #11 over the span of a month. We called it Troll Mario. It lived up to its name. |
Atari
11.13.12 | sorry but 1 has to be 1 it's the original!! but yeah i wasn't expecting very many people to agree with number 2 :P |
Calc
11.13.12 | two things
-did you even play 12?
-you missed his best work, D.N.A and Turning Point!! |
undertakerpt
11.13.12 | Good list. Still haven't played sunshine, must get!!!
Personally, super mario world is my fave cos it was the first one I played and still gives a nostalgia trip to this day.
I'm guessing the wario and luigi titles are not taken into account here? |
Crymsonblaze
11.13.12 | For me...
7, 6, 4, 3, 1, 8, 10, 2, 9, 5
Didn't play 11 and 12 is a great compilation but I haven't played Lost Levels enough to really judge it on its own |
evilford
11.13.12 | the bass bottles hahhaha |
mvood
11.13.12 | nonononono super mario world is the best |
evilford
11.13.12 | pretty inclusive list, well done
personally, I would have to say Mario 64. so many hours of my life wasted/well spent on that game. World was fkn amazing as well obvs, honestly I enjoy both of them more than the NES versions. but 1 and 3 were amazing as well, all classics. |
evilford
11.13.12 | oh and yeah Sunshine was great but it felt more like a re-hashed version of 64...maybe just me idk, just wasn't as fun. |
Crymsonblaze
11.13.12 | Looking forward to the new Paper Mario. Probably will get it at Christmas |
Calc
11.13.12 | you're also missing the mario and luigi partners in time for DS which was def better than mario 2 at least |
Atari
11.13.12 | @Xenophanes, sorry to disappoint you just my personal preference but i enjoy every single one of these games. |
mvood
11.13.12 | "You'll have to forgive me for not including mario RPG for snes"
no, i wont |
menawati
11.13.12 | does every game have loads of dlldz dllldz dllllldz or did they move away from that |
FrozenVain
11.13.12 | Super Mario Bros 3, Super Mario World and Yoshi's Island are my favorites. |
climactic
11.13.12 | the original paper mario is the BEST |
FrozenVain
11.13.12 | I'm rollin' SNES you know |
bach
11.13.12 | So true about 2. Sunshine never really got the love it should've received.
Disagree with 1, though. It is an obvious classic, but Mario 64 is my everything. And judging by your video game tastes, you'd probably like a youtube channel called jontronshow. |
Atari
11.13.12 | i like fighting games but i always get my ass kicked lol |
Keyblade
11.13.12 | as far as sidescrolling Mario games go, 6 is best IMO. |
Crymsonblaze
11.13.12 | can't stand fighting games or shooter games
rpg and platformers all the way |
Calc
11.13.12 | "im a marvel vs capcom II master"
your too cool for me... |
mikeg1992
11.13.12 | Super Mario 64 turned video games into art. There's no arguing that this was the best and most important video game ever made. Fuck Ocarina of Time. |
ThunderNeutral21
11.13.12 | 8 is so bad
64 and mario bros 3 are best mario bros 1 is third best |
Atari
11.13.12 | nah 8 isn't bad at all not as good as 3 but still awesome. |
Crymsonblaze
11.13.12 | there's nothing wrong with smb2
it only gets a bad rep because it's not a true mario game and all that |
Keyblade
11.13.12 | "Super Mario 64 turned video games into art. There's no arguing that this was the best and most important video game ever made. Fuck Ocarina of Time.'
no |
evilford
11.13.12 | sorry but Metal Gear Solid > any mario game ever
or any game ever for that matter |

11.13.12 | pong > |
mikeg1992
11.13.12 | come at me bro |
bach
11.13.12 | "Fuck Ocarina of Time."
Take that back.
|
evilford
11.13.12 | and I love mario a lot so you know I mean that |
Masochist
11.13.12 | Sunshine was fun, but it didn't stand up to 64, or even Galaxy. And yeah, you gotta have Mario RPG, all three Paper Marios, and the GB Mario adventures (Partners In time, Superstar Saga, Bowser's Inside Story, etc.). |
Atari
11.13.12 | never got into the metal gear solid games (just never got around to it)
switched mario 3 with mario galaxy cause it is def amazing. |
Trebor.
11.13.12 | I wouldn't lump Galaxy 1 and 2 together because I think 2 is significantly better |
FrozenVain
11.13.12 | Ocarina of time is a overrated game. Don't know why so many are so damn horny for that game. The combat sucks. It's not a bad game,but still way more boring than other Zelda games. |
Trebor.
11.13.12 | New Super Mario Bros. Wii is terrible
|
Atari
11.13.12 | hehe masochist haven't played too many handleld mario's except the one's i listed. disagreed though. mario 64 might be better than sunshine but no way is galaxy better than sunshine IMO |
Trebor.
11.13.12 | Implying people play Zelda games for the combat
|
Atari
11.13.12 | @Trebor,
nah i mean it's not the best mario obviously but still awesome at least in my opinion. |
Atari
11.13.12 | and yeah but i only made 12 spots in my list so i decided to lump galaxy 1 and 2 together. agreed that number 2 was better though cause yoshi! |
evilford
11.13.12 | MGS > Klax > GTA San Andreas > All Marios > Half-Life > Max Payne > Resident Evil 2 & 4 > some other stuff > Super Smash TV > Star Fox > some other stuff > Goldeneye > lots of other stuff >> lots and lots of other stuff >>>> colonoscopy > super smash bros
|
Cipieron
11.13.12 | wth, no Super Mario RPG????
|
Keyblade
11.13.12 | yea nsmbw is boring as fuck |
Atari
11.13.12 | cool list ford but no way are all marios better than goldeneye lol goldenguy is maybe the most original shooter of all time. |
Atari
11.13.12 | @Cipieron, sorry : ( i'm going to see if they have a download of mario RPG on the wii virtual console when i get home. |
evilford
11.13.12 | I would say half life is more original by a small margin
and yeah I was joking with all marios, but overall as a franchise I would put it there |
evilford
11.13.12 | oh and Metroid: Prime |
mvood
11.13.12 | portal is the most original fps obviously |
Yazz_Flute
11.13.12 | where the fuck is Mario Baseball |
Atari
11.13.12 | as a franchise then fuck yeah |
Atari
11.13.12 | omg lol these are just the traditional mario games where mario has to rescue princess peach no mario kart or mario baseball or mario super strikers or mario tennis heheheh too many mario's! |
Trebor.
11.13.12 | Goldeneye paved the way for the modern shooter agreed |
mvood
11.13.12 | I would say that was more Quake but Goldeneye is still important nevertheless |
Shogun
11.13.12 | Interesting list, difficult one this. Sunshine is excellent and I would love to see a sequel in the future, not sure its the 2nd best Mario game though.
My top three are 64, SMW and Yoshi's Island
|
evilford
11.13.12 | overall half-life is the most significant FPS of all time imo
for console gaming only, Goldeneye kills everything else |
Atari
11.13.12 | @Shogun, yeah yoshi's island rules.
@Sonic, how so lol |
evilford
11.13.12 | atari, tell me you have played half-life, gta: san andreas and goldeneye!! |
Atari
11.13.12 | nope just goldeneye lol |
evilford
11.13.12 | dude |
Atari
11.13.12 | wasn't half life on the computer? |
mvood
11.13.12 | vice city is better than san andreas, just sayin |
Atari
11.13.12 | @ford, all i know is i fucking love red dead redemption. it's the makers of the grand theft auto series but a western. there's bears and shit you can shoot all kinds of stuff |
Calc
11.13.12 | atari are you a video game newb? |
evilford
11.13.12 | yes half life was a pc game
actually I've never played red dead redemption but I have a buddy who loves it |
tommygun
11.13.12 | The NES Mario games are horribly overrated idgaf about influence it doesn't make them fun for me. All the 3D ones rule especially Sunshine. Super Mario RPG and the first two Paper Mario games are also incredible. |
Atari
11.13.12 | @Calc, why because i haven't played half life?
no i'm obsessed with video games. |
Atari
11.13.12 | just never really got into PC games |
Calc
11.13.12 | "The NES Mario games are horribly overrated idgaf about influence it doesn't make them fun for me."
how old are you? or how long have you been playing video games? |
mikeg1992
11.13.12 | I'm sorry, but I still have my N64. Go back and play Goldeneye and try to tell me that that game is still fun. It isn't. Sure it was revolutionary, but the controls are pretty terrible. SM64 is still a blast to do playthroughs of. |
Calc
11.13.12 | @atari
no im just noticing things. prolly just me |
AngelofDeath
11.13.12 | Super Mario Bros. 3, Yoshi's Island, and Super Mario 64 are the best three Mario titles. This is irrefutable.
Also, fail for leaving off SMRPG. |
Atari
11.13.12 | @Calc,
hehe like what man? |
4N4LB34D5
11.13.12 | Nice list! I can agree with most of this, except for Super Mario RPG not being #1, obviously! The only change I would make is placing SMW and SMB3 in the top 3 along with Sunshine |
Atari
11.13.12 | thanks glad you liked it |

11.13.12 | Have you played Super Mario RPG, Atari? |
undertakerpt
11.13.12 | Good idea = games
Bad idea = reality |
Calc
11.13.12 | right off the bat undertaker rare developed zero timesplitters games |
Atari
11.13.12 | @Ecnalzen, nope and i'm never gonna hear the end of it lol |
Atari
11.13.12 | who did do timesplitters? Timesplitters 2 rules |
Ecnalzen
11.13.12 | Ha ha, are you an RPG fan? If you are, that game deserves some of your time. |
Atari
11.13.12 | @Ecnalzen, not as much as some people but yes i like a good RPG. is it better than paper mario though? i found that game to be kind of boring/overrated. |
tommygun
11.13.12 | @Calc
I'm 24 and grew up playing Nintendo systems. I've never enjoyed the NES Mario games. I liked the two on the SNES though. |
undertakerpt
11.13.12 | @calc
members of the rare team when it disbanded went on to form the new radical team, who developed
timesplitters my friend. you'll also find that dr.doak, a character featured in goldeneye 007 on the
n64, was david doak, the president of rare, who went on to become president of new radical. |
Atari
11.13.12 | now i have to make a top PS3 list a top SNES list and an overall best of all time list ;) |
Ecnalzen
11.13.12 | I'd play Mario RPG over the first two Paper Marios. The Wii Paper Mario is pretty bitchin though, if you haven't tried it. Here's a video with some game play from Mario RPG.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjB46wQRDnM
The music rules, as well. |
Atari
11.13.12 | yeah never tried the wii paper mario just the first one for the gamecube i think.
and that's cool i'll check the link out after work ;D |
Calc
11.14.12 | so rare didnt make the game like i said? lol |
undertakerpt
11.14.12 | well, no, but i still see free radical or whatever they're called as rare at heart, come to think of it better add donkey kong to that list. |
Ecnalzen
11.14.12 | The first one was on the N64 (Paper Mario), then Gamecube (Paper Mario: Thousand Year Door) and the Wii (Super Paper Mario). They are all pretty fun, but the Wii one is pretty different than the other two, it has less RPG elements than the other two and has some really creative game play ideas. |
4N4LB34D5
11.14.12 | Super Mario RPG is light-years beyond Paper Mario in pretty much every aspect. It was made by fucking SQUARESOFT in their PRIME! It probably won't have the same impact on you as it would on someone playing it when it originally came out, but you should definitely enjoy it. Not to mention it has, in my opinion, the coolest cast of characters ever assembled in Mario/SNES history! |
Apollo
11.14.12 | I fucking love Mario |
Atari
11.14.12 | cool i think i'll just start with mario RPG. i just hope they have it available to download on my wii's virtual console. and yeah the one i played was thousand year door but never finished it. |
Ecnalzen
11.14.12 | It's on the virtual console, I bought it since I don't have my Super Nintendo anymore. |
4N4LB34D5
11.14.12 | Ooooohhh yeah Super Paper Mario on the Wii is an awesome one as well |
Atari
11.14.12 | sweet! |
Ecnalzen
11.14.12 | The Wii Paper Mario is fantastic. The whole switching between 2D and 3D thing is pretty cool. |
undertakerpt
11.14.12 | mario rpg was never released in the uk. being american has its advantages. |
tommygun
11.14.12 | didn't dig the wii paper mario they took out the sweet rpg elements of the first two and it suffered |
Winrar
11.14.12 | YES this list! Props for sunshine and NSMB which i really enjoyed playing with my mates. List is lacking the RPGs and Paper Mario N64 but they're not really platformers so w.e |
Atari
11.14.12 | Glad u liked it ;) I'm going to download Mario rpg SNES on my wii |
PistolPete
11.14.12 | fucking love super mario sunshine, first game i ever played on my new gamecube as a kid very nostalgic)
you forgot Paper Mario though! Thousand Year Door is another great game |
Winrar
11.14.12 | Yeah you won't regret it, that game kicks ass. |
Cygnatti
11.14.12 | this is list is sooooo wrong atari. needs the mario rpg games but that would make ranking even harder
new super mario bros wii was tough as fuck but that was part of the reason why it was so fun. it wasn't so bad for me because I have a twin to dual play with all the time. |
Atari
11.14.12 | @chipmunk. I said in the description that this DOESN'T include the mario RPG games :P. aside from that why is this ranking so wrong? I love the new super mario bros. game too.... this was a really hard list to make. :3 |
demigod!
11.14.12 | Galaxies are soo much better than Sunshine and 64 man. I get nostalgia but they're just better games.
also yea, Paper Mario Wii was so boring and lame. |

Yeah, alot of the mario games kicked ass but Mario Party was THE fucking game that brought the definitive multiplayer experience. 4 players sitting on the floor looking at a tiny as fuck TV, killing each other in minigames and shafting the winning player has got to be one of the reasons i got into gaming. Mario Party was fucking great, unless you have 5+ people over :D |
