Building a list of the top Mario games of\nall time is always tough, the big favourites are always subjective to the\nindividual player and the list can change depending on who you\u2019re asking. But\nthat doesn\u2019t mean there haven\u2019t been games that stand out on their own for the\nhuge impact they may have had \u2013 this list will exclude recent options that have\nbeen more themed based with Mario slots at casinosnotongamstop.org<\/a> for example\nand will instead focus on the bigger traditional AAA releases throughout the\nhistory of the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Super Mario 64 <\/strong>\u2013 Although likely not the first game many Mario fans had tried as\nthat likely would\u2019ve been one of the older Mario Bros games, this is certainly\na game that changed Mario for many individuals after its release and set a\ncertain standard for gaming. Bringing some fresh graphics to the Mario\nfranchise, some exciting mechanics, and just being outright fun, it still holds\nup to this day, and even now with a huge speed running community behind it, it\nholds up as being perhaps one of, if not the most, popular Mario title of all\ntime. There was nothing like jumping through a painting to load into a level,\nand still looks so cool even today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Super Mario Sunshine <\/strong>\u2013 This often isn\u2019t\na game that makes many top ten lists<\/a>, and for some is something often\nforgotten about \u2013 but it\u2019s certainly a game that helped the genre. Much in the\nway that Super Mario 64 introduced new mechanics and a new style, Sunshine did\nthe very same thing and it\u2019s easy to see how even current games are inspired by\nsome of what sunshine introduced. As the second 3D entry into the Mario series,\nit certainly couldn\u2019t have went any better, and many fans will look fondly back\non their time playing Sunshine as some of the best Mario experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New Super Mario Bros. <\/strong>\u2013 Released on the DS back in 2006, New Super Mario Bros brought back\nthe traditional side scrolling game that was familiar to anyone who played the\noriginal and introduced a whole new generation to the game too \u2013 whilst many of\nthe levels were 1:1 remakes, there had been the inclusion of some new mechanics\nlike wall jumping which have become staples, and the bright and exciting\ngraphics brought a whole new feel to the game too. Given it did harken back to\nthe classic game, the great level design was really able to shine through once\nagain as something that many had missed, and provided plenty of nostalgia but\nstill just as many challenges for those who had finished the original years\nprior and wanted a similar but still exciting challenge too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
