world

Just play whatever you enjoy the most. This is a low quality thread that’s been done dozens of times.

>>6111949
World is my favorite. but you can make a good case for either game "better", they are both 10/10 games.

>>6111965
This, I like you.

>>6111949
SMW has almost perfect controls.
SMB3 world and levels feel more coherent and full of interesting ideas.

Combine the two and you get the perfect Mario game.
But Nintendo prefers shit like NSMB.

>>6111949
Just looking at the starting screen is enough to tell you World is one million times better. Its literally an improvement of 3 in every single way.

I personally prefer SMW, I like the secrets, the controls, the music and the graphics.
But I think SMB3 is more polished, it has more power ups, the worlds look more unique (the ones in SMW look very samey, and some worlds only have like 3 stages), the enemy design is better in SMB3, it's a lot more difficult
It really depends, but I'd say they are on par with each other

>>6111998
NSMB is mechanically superior to both.

>>6111949
World is probably the better game but it’s just so bland compared to 3

>>6111965
Yeah, they're both solid platform games and still incredibly good compared to games in the same genre that were made 30 years later. I think the pre-Mario 3 games are good as well but I can't deny how influential the games in the OP are.

As much as I prefer PC games over console games, I'd pick classic mario over anything like Jazz Jackrabbit or Commander Keen.

>>6111949
Super Mario World. It was much more epic.

>>6111949
I like both.

>>6112104
No. Fuck that floaty-ass bullshit.

>>6112104
>floaty
>lets you wall jump

its not even mario anymore

mario bros 3 was better as a stand alone game, but hacks have propelled smw forward

>>6111949
Mario Maker 2

>>6111949
Both :)

>>6111949
Mario 3 all day every day.

>>6111949
Both shit.

Pic related is best Super Mario game.

>>6112104
>can't throw objects in vertical axis
It's not better than World in that regard.

>>6111949
3, but world is good too. 3 is just my personal preference.

>>6111949
SMB3 > SMB2 > SMB > SMW > SMW2

>>6112649
>preferring SMB1 over World, but preferring SMB3 above all
Weird list.
Also 2 USA or Lost Levels?

world has ugly art and boring level themes.

3 has soulful levels and tons of variety and fun

>>6112726
What a load of shit. Mario World has ice and sky levels.

>>6111949
SMAS > 64 > World > RPG > Everything else

This is objective fact.

To be honest, I never really liked the 2D mario games all that much.
They're fine games, but none of them have really resonated with me, I would just play them and then move on. While it was other platformers like Yoshi's Island, Donkey Kong and Wario Land that I would replay again and again.
But of the two, I think smb3 is the better one.

>>6112653
Mario Madness

World has better pacing.
Vs. SMB is the best Mario game.

>>6112815
You mean 1 ice level, and it's out of the way.

>>6112726
Does Mario 3 have a chocolate land? No.

3 the levels just feel more jam packed, the levels in world rarely have secrets hidden in the sky like mario 3, they do have some but a lot of the levels feel so empty

>>6112973

>>6113081
That's obviously wood, it even includes the pith.

>>6111949

I like 3 but fucking world exists man

I prefer 3, but just barely. 3 is more refined and polished, while World seems more experimental, but sloppier.

>>6111949
i can't stand World's camera

>>6111949
Both are amazing games and it's hard to pick... that being said Yoshi's Island is trash

World for physics
and romhacks in general

>>6111949
Mario 3 had the insanely more fun powerrups and some very specific worlds were pretty great

World was overall more replayable because it did not force you to replay through the first couple areas each time you played it.

To those saying Mario 3, what’s your opinion on the Mario All-Stars version?

>>6113303
I'm biased but the GBA version is my favorite.

Mario 3 without a doubt. NOT all stars

>>6111959

>>6112104

I poop on the potty and wipe my bum

>>6113081
It sure as shit aint walnut. Looks like cherry.

>>6112827
WHAT!?

>>6113303
I really don't separate them, it's pretty much the same game. The GBA port added things I like, like a world map that lets me backtrack and redo older levels.

>>6113303
terrible

>>6112726
Excellent image that summarizes the problems with SMW and how inferior it is to SMB3. I saved it for use in the future threads. It fascinates me how many delusional SMWfags there are (it's not a bad game, but it's nowhere near as good as 3), but then again, nostalgia is one hell of a drug.

>>6111949
w o r l d

>>6111949
world, especially the rom hacks

>>6111949
Super Mario Bros. 3 is the greatest game on the NES and a legitimate contender for best game of all time.

Super Mario World is a great game but doesn't even come close to the best on the SNES.

3 is better. Pic related is the superior Mario pinball experience, however.

>>6112538
are you mentally stunted

>>6112538
You may not like it anon, but Super Marioki Panic is the superior Mario 2.

>>6114183

>>6112726
Kys spammer.

>>6112726
>all that cherrypicking
You're not including the cloud as a power up in SMW, not including ice levels (there's more than 1, stop bullshitting) or sky levels, and you're not making the diffeence between a fortress and a castle.
Also, on the tileset, you're including the cutscene sprites on SMB3, but not in SMW.
You're an autistic retard.

I honestly prefer both SMB1 and SMB3 to World

>>6111949
They’re both just decent platformers on consoles with far superior platformers. 3 and World are bland. It’s like vanilla being your favorite ice cream.

>>6114571
i really don't know what they were thinking with those SMW goombas, they look horrible
the same can arguaby said for the beetles, because their shell has a straight bottom contour

>>6115509
>ice level
if i include 1 off themes, then ill have to add all mario 3's. like tower, pyramid, black void, etc do you really want me to do that?

>>6115538
You are a fucking lowly retarded subhuman and nothing more.

>>6115538
name better platformers beside sonic adventure

>>6111949
World

>>6112104
>preferring the bland series that single-handedly killed off the 2D Mario games over the two polished, timeless games that defined what a good 2D platformer should always be like

World feels like a modified Mario 3 that's missing a certain substance

>>6111949
mario 3 has better challenge, a better artstyle and much better powerup variety
mario world has better controls, much more level gimmicks and secrets up the ass

honestly it just kinda depends on my mood

>>6113263
all-stars version didn't have this problem since you could choose which world to start in from file select

>>6115663
smw goombas are different enemies all-together. it makes sense that they'd have a derivative look

>>6111949
World; I think it's more fun to play and I like the art style/music better. Also Yossy.

>>6111949
I lean toward 3, but you could make the argument for either one. World has a ton of secrets and they tend to be more substantial (an entire optional world, super hard bonus stages, Star Road...), which is a major plus in a 2D platformer. However, I find SMB3's secrets to be much more rewarding and interesting, and the levels in-general have much clearer themes that make them stick out in your head. What really clinches it are the power-ups, though. They're a lot more varied, and allowing the player to store items they've collected adds a small dimension of resource management. It also means that the game can reward you in a more meaningful way than throwing some 1-Ups at you.

Of course, that's all nitpicking at the end of the day. When it comes to the big stuff, namely level design, physics, and controls, they're both near the peak of the genre.

>>6116028
I said there are superior platformers on the same consoles, not different ones. Learn to read.

>>6115713
I like both games, the point is you're obviously cherrypicking and a shameless autist at that.

>>6116951
yet you cant name any

nintendo is a BUSINESS, quit acting like they're your buddies

>>6116028
>besides sonic adventure

>>6117072
Nobody is acting like that

>>6113303
All-Stars is a soulless abomination.

>>6115538
Embarrassing taste.

>>6117805
eat shit you dumb ape.

>>6113303
The NES version has a charm the All-Stars version lacks, but All-Stars abandoned the play/theater motif in favor of a fully fleshed out world which they did quite well. I really enjoy both NES and SNES versions of all these games.

>>6114579
whoever named that file dun goofed

>>6113303
I grew up playing the NES version, but I always play the SNES or GBA version now.
More colors are nice.
