Andrew N from Negative World says: "If there is one character that is synonymous with the company Nintendo, it has to be Mario. Mario made his debut way back in the 1981 arcade game Donkey Kong (although he was called Jumpman at that point), and the success of the game propelled him into the spotlight. However, it was really 1985’s Super Mario Bros. that cemented his role as Nintendo’s flagship mascot, a position that he has held without serious challenge ever since. With Mario’s next big platformer (Super Mario 3D World for the Wii U) just around the corner, I felt like it might be a good time to stop and take a look back at the games that have led us to where we are."

My top 3 are Mario 3, Mario World and Mario 64. Mario Odyssey is also excellent, and I enjoyed Sunshine but didn't care for the Galaxy series.
Releasing the Nintendo Switch 2 with a Super Mario 64 remake would be the perfect way to unleash the console to the world.
If they ever did I hope they would add onto it, there's so much you could do with Princess Peach's castle alone
Each level is pretty small today in the original game, I don't like huge levels but I think they could be at least 2x bigger, or close to it and more of them, with more things to do.
They could do a mix of having open levels and more linear ones like in 3D World or Land, I doubt they will do that but it would make a change.
I'd prefer a Oydessey 2 or Galaxy 3. Besides the DS
game was a Mario 64 remake complete with more playable characters, stages, bosses and muti player content.
Yes! Let's release an almost 30 year old game to kick off the next generation for Nintendo...
I'm over re-releases...FEED ME NEW MARIO!

Yoshi's Island needs to be higher than #6
I'm too old school. Mario 64 rocked my world and I still play it on my 3ds to this day.
for me its mario 64 in the top spot i remember jumping into those pictures like it was yesterday that game was magic
I'm not sure why I did this, but a few weeks after purchasing Super Mario Galaxy 2, I took it back (for about 15 dollars). I guess I really missed Rosalina's Comet Observatory, and the giant Mario head just didn't give the same feeling.
I wish I had kept it... I would be playing it today!
I agree with @reeze . Galaxy just didn't hit that note that so much people seem to have. To me it felt bland nothing new, it was a solid game though but nothing that blew my mind, yea it was Beautiful but every new mario game that comes out Gets more beautiful. To me is map 64 and sunshine very under rated and Idk why is that?????
