    Super Mario Bros. 3 is unparalleled. Mario Kart 64 next to that.

    I actually really dig Super Mario Galaxies, it's a lot better than I'd thought it'd be.
    Before that though Super Mario Bros on the NES.
    It mightn't look so great nowadays, but it's one of the few games from that era that I find holds up gameplay wise even now.

    My favourite Mario is Super Mario Bros 3.  Its one of the first games I can remember finishing in my lifetime and the gameplay, level design etc just makes it somewhat the perfect platformer.  Super Mario World and SMG are not too far behind.

    Super Mario 64. It's probably because it was the first mario game I played and beat. Has that nostalgic value the others don't, unfortunately.

    Super Mario Galaxy followed by Super Mario Bros. 3. Galaxy is too much of a masterpiece for me to let the retro feelings name SMB3 as the best, it's not anymore.

    Super Mario 64, but in time I think I'll consider Galaxy to be the better game.

    Its Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island for me, though I also want to say Super Mario Galaxy, Super Mario World, Super Mario Brothers, Super Mario Brothers 2, Super Mario Brothers 3, Super Paper Mario, Paper Mario, Paper Mario: the Thousand-Year Door, New Super Mario Brothers, and Super Mario 64.

    Super Mario World and Super Mario Bros 3.  It's hard for me to decide between those two, but those are my favorite Mario games by far.

    That's such a tough question to answer.

    Mario games tend to set the bar for every game to follow.

    I would have to say Super Mario 1 for nostalgia purposes but man Mario 64 changed the whole world of gaming.

    It's gotta be the original. Or failed that, Super Mario Bros. 3.
    People don't like me when I say this, but I hated Super Mario 64.
    He should just stay 2D. End.
