Although I voted for SMB3, I shouldve voted for Super Mario World.



My favorite Mario of all time though is probably Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins (for GB). It is the first Mario to introduce Wario. Also Wario World or whatever (SML3) is great too.

I loved Mario Tennis!!! I've always thought they should make another, but now with the Nintendo Revolution I think they would try to utilize the motion sensitive controller and probably ruin the game.

I voted for Super Mario World. I have fond memories of that game. I didn't beat it till years after I first played it, since I had no SNES until I was about 14.

You guys know that we cannot see the results if we do not vote. It would make sense to put some sort of a benign vote in there to allow all of us to see as well.

You do not necessarily have to put an "IT SUCKS" option, but something other than a vote of approval would be nice.

The current Mario Power Tennis isn't exactly old - I don't think we need another just yet <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif"> I think Nintendo are certainly planning on using the revolution controller for a new mario tennis game at some point though; in the teaser trailer for the new controller they even showed people using it as a tennis racket. Personally I think that would be a great use for the controller.

I'm thoroughly convinced that Mario Kart 64 is the perfect game. Aside from the shortcut you can take in Wario Stadium, there are no faults I can find in the level design or the gameplay. I play about 4 hours of it a week with the kids on my hall.

There's about 4 uber shortcuts in that game I think - Rainbow Road, Wario Stadium and Mario Raceway (dunno if thats the name, but one that goes past the castle I think?) all had somewhat destructive shortcuts. None are particularly simple or without risk though, so I wouldn't say there were enough to destroy the game or anything.

Wow, I just googled Mario Power Tennis... and somehow I had no idea there was a Mario Tennis for GC. I thought the only Mario Tennis was the N64 one. I think I'll have to buy that now.

I smell another thread coming up ... "What's the best Zelda game?" <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif"> (And maybe Metroid, but there's not much argument there)

Mario (Super Mario Brothers 3) => Zelda (Ocarina of Time) => Metroid (Fusion)


Blame it on Microsoft, God does.

Maybe if people didnt steal discussion from my thread....



Anyway, yes. In Wario Raceway on MK64, you can skip a good 30 seconds of racetime by jumping over a wall off the first humps in the level.

? quoting Baron von Snickers

Wow,

Last time I used this word in a sentence with Mario Bros. in it it was "Wow, they still make these silly games?"

Thats the only Wow I have seen till today. <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_lol.gif">

It took me what seemed like forever to get that stupid Mario for Nintendo out of my head.

Royal Raceway. And is that 3 or 4?

The Rainbow Road one is so hard to pull off that's its never worth the risk.

And the one on Royal Raceway, are you talking about going off to the left off the big jump and hoping the cloud dude drops you past the mountain?

Link to the Past or Ocarina. I think I own all the Zeldas that exist right now with the exception of the Japanese Satellaview and uh, CD-i (I think) versions.

I have:
NES - The Legend of Zelda
NES - Zelda II: The Adventure of Link
GBC - Link's Awakening
GBC - Oracle of Ages
GBC - Oracle of Seasons
GBA - Minish Cap
SNES - Link to the Past
N64 - Ocarina of Time
N64 - Majora's Mask
GCN - The Wind Waker
GCN - Zelda: Ocarina of Time + Master Quest
GCN - The Zelda Collection

As for Metroid I've only really played Fusion and the first Prime seriously. I also own Metroid Prime 2, but haven't really put any time into it. Tried playing Super Metroid but was never that gripped.

I have this game in 5.25 floppy. As far as I know it still works. It has all its original documentation and is the oldest game I currently own. <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif">

It recommends you have:

8mhz or faster
CGA or EGA graphics
512k ram

And Sierra made it.
