Super Mario = my youth
Love these games! I never got a SNES so I think I missed out on some great Mario games.
Mario 1 was just amazing at the time. Mario 2 gets a lot of crap because it's a completely different game (remake of doki doki panic).. at leats, the one they released in Europe. "Lost levels" is supposed to be the ACTUAL Mario 2. Anyway, I even enjoyed the Mario 2 that we got. Mario 3 is probably THE best platform game of all time. The music, the gameplay, the outfits.. perfect.
I absolutely hated M64, but I think that's because of the N64. I hate that controller, can't work with it all. After that I sorta gave up on Nintendo and never played any of the newer mario games
. Actually, I tried Galaxy.. didn't really enjoy it as well, maybe if I spend more time with it. So yeah, the first 3 are the best for me.
