• Happy Mario Day! Woohoo! 😃

    It’s a tie between Super Mario Sunshine and Super Mario Galaxy! I know some people disliked Sunshine having a seaside setting for most of its levels but to me that was just a part of the appeal. The artstyle and fairly difficult gameplay (don’t get me started on that pachinko level!) were charming in their own way, and Galaxy’s graphics were just amazing. Galaxy’s gameplay was unique with the gravity/planetoid mechanic and a part of the story actually made me cry… Mario Odyssey is good but doesn’t come anywhere near as close as Sunshine and Galaxy for me. I still replay both games from time to time!

  • I have many favorites:

    • Super Mario 64 DS, as it’s the first Mario game I ever played.
    • Super Mario All-Stars, because I prefer the updated graphics and music on the SNES instead of the NES.
    • Super Mario World is pretty cool too.
    • Super Mario RPG was surprisingly good as well.
    • Super Mario Bros. X (fan game) is like NSMB and Super Mario Maker rolled in one.
  • It might honestly be 3D World on the WiiU. I loved SMW on the snes and all, but SM3DW was the first one to make me smile like I was a kid again. Champions road was just the right difficulty for me.

    Paper Mario on the gamecube probably doesn’t count, but that was also a lot of fun.

  • I don’t have many favourite games, but I would like to mention that my first Mario game (or any videogame in general) that I’ve palyed was Super Mario All-Stars on a Zsnes emulator. I like to think about my gaming evolution since then…

    Might be a lame answer, but Mario Odyssey for sure (though I’ve yet to play Galaxy 2). I’m excited for the next Mario but I don’t know how they can top the enemy-catching mechanic, it’s so creative and made every level truly feel unique.

    I have many favorites but my above the rest one is super Mario sunshine. I can replay that one over and over and never get tired of it. I also like how difficult it is to try to 100% it
