Growing up, it was SMW. Then it was 3.
Now it's probably the first one. They're all good though, even the GB ones.

>> No.4891618

Does yoshi's island count? If not, then 3.

For me it's W > 64 > 3 > 2US > 1 > 2J.

I had a lot of fun with Deluxe on the GBC though. Never made it all the way through YI. Too much of a collectathon vibe, but I'd like to finish it some day.

Would switch SMB and SM64, and also put Yoshi's Story higher, because it's really relaxing and is kind of hypnotizing to look at

feather tier (goat):

flower tier (i really like these):
smb, smb2, sml2

mushroom tier (very good):
dkgb, smb3, sml1

poison tier (i don't like them):

This is the ideal Super Mario game.
You may not like it but this is what peak performance looks like.

i like its ideas a lot, i think if you gave it a yoshi's island ish aesthetic, opened the game up a little further (almost metroidvania... but almost!) and gave mario's powerups and carrying mechanic a bit more utility it'd be really cool to see

That is regular Mario. The one that's fucked up is the SMB2 one.

The controls in World are magical.

While simply moving Mario is really fun, there are a lot of times where I find the controls to be very wonky. Especially the camera.

Every fucking time. Triggers my autism.

To answer your question, SMB1, 3, and Donkey Kong '94 are my faves.

>> No.4894349

SMB3. The 2d linear style is just the best to me, it's the simplest but most timeless fun. SMW is more expansive and higher-fidelity, but I don't like the controls compared to SMB3. They feel a little more floaty.

i've made a revision!
there are some things to note though:

1) smb2jp has been excluded, since it has no changes to mario himself.
2) i personally believe smb2 should be after smb3 because its mario sprite is clearly based on smb3's (and doki doki panic probably started turning into smb2 after smb3 started development), but i kept it to release date.
3) super mario land has been upscaled 2x, but sml2 is intact.
4) nsmb and nsmbwii are here! i would have included nsmb2, nsmbu and mario run, but i don't have them
5) spinoffs are excluded, except for the land games because i think they're kinda significant (and mario maker agrees).

i just like 3 the most for some reason

world is great, 64 is great, 1 is good

>> No.4902349

Mario Bros best pre-SMB Mario game.
DK94 is best post SMB Mario game that isn't SMB.
SMB3 is best SMB game but I feel more like replaying SMB1 since it's a lot quicker and doesn't have filler like SMB3.

Galaxy best 3D Mario.
NSMBW is best nu 2D Mario. NSMB is fucking inexcusable, NSMBU is meh, NSMB1 was good for ending the 2D Mario drought and having amazing multiplayer.

Donkey Kong Country is the most consistently good spinoff series.

It's a port of super Mario Bros but with less 1-ups, and all the copy pasted levels from the original SMB were replaced with random levels from SMB: The Lost Levels.
