Top 5 Mario Games Page
"Super Mario Bros." took console gaming to the next level, and it's a big reason why people started staying home to play games instead of going to the arcade. Once again, Mario was determined to save the damsel in distress. But instead of jumping around a two-dimensional construction site, as in “Donkey Kong,” Mario went side-scrolling through a two-dimensional Mushroom Kingdom, a land filled with fanciful characters, mushrooms that made you big and lots of gold coins to collect. Just make sure to avoid bottomless pits, pools of lava and those pesky turtles, not to Mention those Annoying Goombas too. Have fun with this Game! |

This one is the big daddy, the game that set the standard for all the Mario titles to come.
The gameplay is simple: Mario climbs a grid of platforms, ladders and conveyer belts while avoiding obstacles such as barrels, fire and buckets of cement. The object? To save a girl from the clutches of the bad ape named Donkey Kong. The concept is so simple, but the game could be challenging to the point of frustration.
"Donkey Kong" may seem rudimentary today, with its simple, boxy graphics, but its multiple stages and use of cut-scenes made it cutting-edge back in the day. In this Game Mario was still Called Jumpman. Have fun with this Antique!

Welcome to the 3-D world of Mario.
In this title, released in 1996, Mario’s still saving the girl and collecting coins in the Mushroom Kingdom (more specifically, Princess Peach’s castle). This time around, Nintendo added 3-D to the gameplay, allowing Mario to wander freely and allowing the player to move the camera – imperative if you hope to discover all the secrets in the game.
”Super Mario 64” is too good to let go, and it’s a big reason why fans have hung onto their antiquated Nintendo 64 systems. But if you don’t have one, never fear: You can get this game, and many others, through the Wii’s Virtual Console. Have fun!

Mario is not just a plumber who rescues girls from trouble, he’s also an athlete. Over the years he’s shown skills at basketball, tennis, soccer and golf, but it was the 3-D “Mario Kart 64” where Mario was at his very best.
“Mario Kart 64” is pretty simple: You do laps around a circuit track. But the game has lots of fun extras that will keep you coming back, like “power ups,” which let you go faster when you hit them, and drifting, which lets you hit corners at top speed. You could also use weapons like banana peels that, when dropped, caused your opponent to spin and crash.
”Mario Kart 64”wasn’t just a solid racing game – it was a great multiplayer experience, too. Many a razzing has occurred between friends on these tracks. Make sure not to Burn out those wheels!

Nintendo’s hand held DS Lite is powerful enough to play games that used to be only available on the older home console machines, and Nintendo could have made most gamers happy by just repackaging the original games. But they didn’t want to rest on their laurels. Instead, they’ve reinterpreted the original “Super Mario Bros.” and made a modern classic.
For “New Super Mario Bros.,” Nintendo went back to the 2-D side scrolling style of the original and kept the same elements of gameplay – like collecting gold coins and, of course, saving the girl. But Nintendo also added new things, like Mario’s ability to turn super-small and walk on water. The result is a retro-feeling adventure that is pure joy to dig into.
“New Super Mario Bros.” proves that Mario is just as much fun to hang with today as he was when we first met him many years ago. This one can also Have a little Multiplayer Action too. Have fun!
These are the Top Five Mario Games of the year, Some Available by the Virtual Console.
