    What do you think the chances are of them getting a new movie right?

    Like a continuation of the last movie? I'm not sure how good that would be. Maybe if they just pretended that movie didn't happen . . . still video game to movies are never really good.

    I am fed up with that damn Princess! (Just finished playing Super Mario). Okay, is her name:
    a)Toad
    b)Toadstool
    c)Princess Toadstool
    d)Peach
    e)Princess
    f)Princes Peach
    She needs to pick one name and go with it!
    Also, the little guy is it a he or she? and is the name Toad/toadstool/ or RETAINER?
    This has been aggravating my soul!

    Mario, I can't stand that italian plumber. What kind of hero is that? A plumber! Sure, we can relate to him .. I guess. .

    the only good video game related movie i can recall was the Wizard.
    remember that one? they travel cross contry with that kid who is like a video game savant and they get to play Mario3 at the tourney for the first time.

    and the power glove is in it! the power glove!

    Mario 2 can't be the best. You have to kill things with root vegetables, which is too silly for words. I mean - how dangerous is an onion?

    Jumping on enemies is much more fun. (Or getting your dinosaur mate to eat them...)

    ah, but that exactly is why i like it. It's the odd man out. it's a bit absurd. it's got a stramge character to it that the other ones don't. and you can play as my main man Toad.

    Mario is possibly the most popular game series apart from Sonic and the final fantasy series.
    What a cool game, i mean, an italian plumber called mario that ate mushrooms and battled his way through a whole crazy world of flying ships and giant plants by jumping on their heads is one cool idea for a game! All i can say is the creator of that game must have been stoned while thinking that up! As to the best mario game... I had to choose Mario 3 for the over all playablitly. There were alot of worlds and levels but also, the mushroom houses and the other little games on the map were pretty cool. Some of the worlds were cool too with the hammer men etc. The idea of including his lanky brother luigi in the game was just a crazy twist. However, it was nearly impossible to complete.
    As to my favourite Mario game, i would tend to say that the Lost levels were a true test of ability, it took thinking as well as just pure raw game playing ability.
    I also liked Mario 2 just for wackyness, it was the odd one out of the whole mario series you have to admit.
    I have never played mario world 2, i heard that it was not a nice game to play, it was taking the idea of mario too far. I liked Mario 64, it was pretty good although, it was too easy to complete.

    Super Mario World on the SNES is still my favourite. Reasons are:
    1. You have a dinosaur that likes apples.
    2. You can make the dinosaur change colour.
    3. The 50th time you play it is still fun.
    4. It helped me off my Monkey Island addiction on Amiga.

    I could never stand the annoying quicksand in SM2.

    Super Mario World and Mario Kart are just mint. Although for the record, Donkey Kong is my favourite SNES game. Might have to pop into the loft and get the old thing going again...

    My favourite SNES game was Mario All-Stars, 4 mario games in 1 convenient cartrage. I got my old Commadore64 out of the loft the other day and played that, i had so much fun with the rubbish graphics and sound, heehe. I play my SNES all the time, i never stopped playing it! Im gonna buy some more games for it and maybe get enough cash up to buy a mega-drive too. how cool would that be? having 2 classic consols instead of 1, excellent!

    How can you beat the first? Well easy, but its like Zelda, except Ocarina of Time is better than the original, so I guess its nothing like the Zelda series because the first Super Mario Bros can't be beat.

    Sorry for the double post, but besides the first and 3rd, Mario RPG was great, where is that on the poll, it was a weird but great game.
