I also liked Mario 64, the first Mario game that was made for Nintendo 64. There was something about jumping through paintings....

Really? I hated that game. I haven't liked any of them since the N64 came out. Except for the different MarioKarts. Those are all pretty fun.

I hated N64. We did get Gamecube at one point, but it ended up being lame also.

Wii is the best thing Nintendo has had going for it in a few years.

Wii is fun but the Mario games kinda suck.

Tetris Party for the Wii, however, is incredibly fun. You can download it on the internet channel.

That was probably my least favorite one, because of the stupid egg blowing bird, as well as the snakes that came out of the vase looking things. It seemed harder that the other Mario games. The premise of the game was pretty cool, though... wasn't it supposed to be Mario's dream, or something?

I love my Mario!

I like the New Super Mario Bros that came out for the DS. Only having a DS doesn't give me access to the older games, but I love how you can get them all on the Wii through the Virtual Console.

My friends and I would spend hours when we were younger in from of the SNES playing.

I like Super Mario 2! And I finally passed the whole freaking game like last week! haha.

Although I will say, If i'm thinking of the same creature you & KSUViolet are thinking of, I don't consider it a "bird" but Yoshi....just like a beginning version of him/her.


Which game is it, where when Mario stands on top of a block he can spin & destroy it? I thought it was Super Mario 3, but it isn't. Is it a SNES game?

My memory isn't the greatest, so he may not have been a bird.

The one where Mario can spin and destroy blocks is Super Mario World (or Mario 4) which was a SNES game. It was the first one with Yoshi also.

Super Mario Brothers 2 was a western conversion of the Famicon Disk System game Doki Doki Panic. The true sequel to Super Mario Brothers was considered to difficult for the western market so they took a pre-existing (easier) game and re-tooled the characters giving them a Super Mario makeover.

I like them, but Nike makes a lot of shoes that collaborate with a top company.

PS3 Air Force 1's

Super Mario 2 was actually some other video game in Japan, and did not star Mario, etc. The marketing people for Nintendo thought that no one would buy/play their crazy Japanese game so they had Mario have a dream that all this stuff happened (the plot/storyline of Super Mario 2) because more little kids would buy it.

I know this because I have a friend who works at game store when he isn't teaching.

I'm scheduled to get them on Friday! Which is awesome, because live-in is leaving town for a wedding tonight and he won't be back until Sunday, giving me plenty of time to hide the evidence.

Thank goodness for family weddings that I don't have to attend!
