I love these other games but Super Mario is the Best Game Ever!!!

It comes a point in the gaming industry when we must step back and recognize characters who have succeeded in bacoming the most memorial characters in the gaming world. This Week we recognize Mario.
Lets be real for a second. Name any other game or game character that has been around longer than Super Mario? Came out with more game sequals than Super Mario? Have had a game on almost every gaming system? No one but Super Mario has made it to these heights. This came across my mind the other day when once again mario is on the cover of another game. Him, along with his friends and Sonic battle it out in the Winter games.

So who can compete with on of the best characters of all time. First you have the Mario dressed in red shooting fire balls at little brown mushroom heads. Or you can the mario with a cape on his back flying threw the air. Mario has reached limits that any other character has failed at.

When have you ever seen a character walk around with a water pack on his back, spraying charater in his own water world? No, not until Mario did it. Mario is the only charcter that has came out with a game for almost every sport. He has played soccer, golf, tennis, hockey, and the list goes on. This is not the menchin the different mario party games(one of my favorite) to come out over the years.

See, what you must understand is that it takes a great character to pull all this off. He has even brung along all of his friends, toad, princess, luigi, yoshi, etc. to the gaming industry. These character, we have to admit, would be nothing if it wasnt for mario. Even sonic is now getting sum much need support from mario. Donkey Kong thanks mario every day for keeping his character alive. If it wasnt for Mario, Donkey and Diddy would be lost in the lame character category.

Mario also came out with the Super Mario Brothers Movie. Who els do you know took the time to make sure that his brother also got some fame. The movie, though it may no have been a great hit(i thought it was great), was funny and entertaining.

So as we take the time to look back at mario journey, we admire his greatness and diversity in the gaming community. We appauled his great abilities and know that no other character will ever reach the bar he has set.

  1. Was you drunk or High? It has to be one or maybe both to say super mario is the best game ever. Over Grand Thef Auto, Bourne Conspiracy, Max Payne, Hitman, Call of Duty, NBA 2K, Need for Speed, 007 or Madden. If you wanna go back in history then I must say Mario AINT GOT SHIT ON SONIC!!!!!!!

  2. No mention of Mario Kart?! No mention of how Donkey Kong brought Mario onto the scene? I've been playing Mario's games for as long as I can remember. He has most certainly endured the test of time. He's been the flagship character for Nintendo and that's why they've put him in so many games. He is very accessible. I'd venture to say that if Link's games were as easy as Mario's, he would be the flagship character. He's been around just as long as Mario. Let's give credit where credit is due.

  3. I loved Super Mario Brothers. Super Mario World was probably one of my favorite videogames of all time. I was especially drawn to the chocolate world stage for some reason. It's a shame the movie was so hilariously awful. Bowser wasn't even a lizard!

  4. Mario Party is highly addicting. My roommate brought his N64 a few weeks ago and I've lost so much sleep because of that damn game. The mini games are so annoying, but yet addicting. I agree about Sonic too, but Mario is the bigger icon I believe. Mario will be around when our kids have kids, that's how popular he truly is.
