Counting down the best Mario games of all time
Mario's appearances in over 100 games range from traditional side scrolling adventures to ones where he plays baseball, archery and tennis. Blockbusters like Super Mario Bros. 3 brought new fans, while flops like Mario is Missing missed the mark. These 25, however, represent his best work, a collection of puzzle games, 2-D romps through the Mushroom Kingdom and heated matches on the soccer field.

i love mario
Tac0bellfan69 your a complete jackass Mario 3 is on the NES look it up
The wii control scheme is way too hard to use because the steering is too sensitive. Nintendo better fix that problem.
But what about Super Paper Mario For the Wii.
yeah mario 3 was definately on NES. the very first Mario Bros should have been number 1. followed by Mario 3 and then the one for SNES with Yoshi, I don't remember the name.
Okay...first of all Super Mario Bros. 3 was orginally on NES..but they Upgraded it to SNES with Super Mario All Stars...so technically it was on both platforms. Mario Kart 64 got robbed..should have been higher..I mean serious Mario Paint...What the hell?!? but honestly how can you say any of the mario games beat the original. Super Mario Brothers, has to be the most played game in history...i know people are still playing it today.
How can you even TRY to compare to Super Mario Bros.? The original is bumped to 7th place!? What gives?!
actually, mario 3 WAS on NES, now whos the ****ing idiot?! Don't you remember the large square cartridge, instead of the small rectangular one? come the **** on, dude. way to make an ass of yourself.
the old N64 and SNES were my first video games. I dont play these games much anymore but i will always remember the fun playing them with my older sister. In my opinion the 2 best are Super Mario 64 and Mario kart 64.. but all the SNES were great
Super Mario Bros. 3 was on SNES not NES u ****in idiot
