What can be said about Mario that hasn’t already been said a million times? From his first appearance as “Jump Man” in Donkey Kong all the way up to recent hits like Mario Kart 7 and Super Mario 3D Land, Mario has had a profound impact on gaming. Nintendo wouldn’t be where it is without the success of a character like Mario.
Hanzala from eXputer: "As Nintendo takes out 20 years' worth of stuff from Garry's Mod, I watch in shock, thinking why it continues to hurt and discourage its fans."
The irony that some of the most disgusting business practices come from companies like Disney or Nintendo, i can't even begin to understand what terrible damage was Garrys Mod making to Nintendo bottom line, imho they're getting pretty nervous about where they're heading in the future, handhelds are no longer something exclusive to Nintendo, from Steam Deck to many others, now you can play the latest games and pay a fraction of the price on Steam sales, so it's up to their exclusives, which just on their own would make hard to justify purchasing a closed overpriced hardware with outrageous price policies (Super Mario Odyssey is still 60 euro 6 years later!), and as a home console they're always underperforming compared to Sony or Xbox.
Look at how they handled Nintendo games being streamed or uploaded on YouTube in the past. They killed Yuzu and Citra even when they had nothing to do with ToTK being leaked, not to mention it was basically unplayable on emulation the week it was leaked. Smash Bros tournament, that was fairly recent. They shut down their online services without any care for purchases made. I bought a switch after skipping their last 2 consoles and handhelds but I don't plan on buying anything Nintendo in the future. They take things to the extremes, they legitimately hate their fans. They're honestly right up there with the likes of Acti, EA, and Ubi, only difference is that they disguise themselves as being family friendly all the while being shady.
Super Mario 64 DS was offered as a launch title for the Nintendo DS, a remake of the classic platform game with a few original tricks.
Needs more appreciation. I never had an N64 so this was what I played. Sure the Yoshi hat mechanic at first is a slog but you unlock Mario and the others for real and then it takes off. Personally I never had an issue with the controls. Can't forget the mini games and the 4 player rumble over download play.
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
The best mario game SUPER MARIO GALAXY 2 aka best game of the 7th gen does not make it to the list?
Blasphemy.
Paper Mario all the way for me, followed by Luigi's Mansion
How is 3 or 3d land not on here?
5. Mario 1
4. Mario galaxy
3. Mario 3
2. World
1. 3d land
If #4 was Super Mario 3, then that list would be perfect.
I would replace Galaxy with Galaxy 2, and Super Mario World with Yoshi's Island. And yeah, there needs to be a way to get Mario 3 in there.
Pretty much every Mario game is great!
