  • I love Mario. You love Mario. We all love Mario. Especially his platforming outings, am I right? They're some of the greatest games of all time, and that's why I've decided to make a video ranking them all from good to really, really good.

    I love how you focused on the qualities of each individual game, instead of factoring some games over others just because they're older and thus more influential. I obviously don't agree with everything (I'd personally put NSMB DS higher, SM64 lower, and SMG1 over SMG2), but I appreciate your more objective take compared to most other youtubers.

      I'd put SM64 lower too. It's like the 3d version of the original Super Mario Bros. for NES. Absolutely groundbreaking for its time, and millions and millions of kids grew up on it and are wrapped up in nostalgia. But most people recognize that Mario is quite limited and nowhere close to the best in the series. Games like Mario 3 and Mario world clearly did it better. To me, 64 is much the same. I appreciate everything it did for the industry, but as a stand alone game it's limited and quite flawed. Plenty of 3d Mario games and other 3d platformers have come along and just did it better. They will never be as influential as 64, but they are nonetheless better games.

      @@williamkoscielniak820 preach! I _still_ see youtubers (e.g. copycat) hail mario 64 and even the original super mario bros as timeless, near-flawless masterpieces, however these two games are by far the worst ones in the series of their respective dimensions (if we're willing to retcon the lost levels). the two games fail in so many fundamental aspects that it's clear that the only appeal these games have is their legacy or nostalgia, rather than actually good design. I don't care that mario 64 is the most influential of the 3d series. sunshine, 3d land, and 3d world are better in nearly every aspect even though they're always ranked below it.

    Completely agree on most of this list and especially your number one. Super Mario Galaxy 2 could have just been an easy cash in (Nintendo being FAR more fond of that than all other game companies combined), and yet it totally stuck the landing and somehow managed to top with aplomb the great first Galaxy. Every single level is fun and interesting, unique and challenging. The music is sooooooo good. The controls are perfect. Most Marios, i remember very fondly, but Galaxy 2 is simply next level and hands down one of the most flawless games ever made.

Galaxy 1’s sandbox levels were honestly where the game was at its worst. Mario’s controls were tailored towards tight platforming, not exploration. And there wasn’t even a lot of exploration on those planetoids beyond the occasional secret pipe and star bit arrangement.
      What else is there? Oh yeah. A much better postgame. Talk shit about the green stars all you want but they’re still a cut above playing the entire game over again in green clothes.
      Really, if both games released at the same time I don’t think there’d be any debate which is better.

  • @TheAbsol7448
    @TheAbsol7448 3 роки тому +3

    To be _completely_ honest, while I adore Galaxy 1 so damn much, I was a little...disappointed with Galaxy 2. I didn't like the hyper linear map, the hub that's so small it's pointless, where each of its functions could have just been on a map(Starship Mario felt like more of an obligation than anything), and how it...didn't feel anything like Galaxy 1, outside of movement and some level design.
    I didn't like how despite being a Galaxy game, there's so little actual focus on space that space feels like an afterthought. Even the box art emphasizes that by being a lot brighter. The deep intense atmosphere that Galaxy 1 had is completely gone. It feels like how Lost Levels felt, only more polished. It feels less like a sequel and more like a DLC pack. Yes, it had some great level design, I'll give it that, but it just didn't _feel_ as good as Galaxy 1.

    • @callinater6133
      @callinater6133 3 роки тому

      There it is again...'atmosphere.'
      If you prefer the first game for this reason then go right ahead but I don't think you can really argue that it makes it better in the face of 2's improvements. As someone who grew up with the first game the second game is easily superior imo. Level design is in a class of its own and the power ups are vastly superior if you ask me. Really mad the cloud flower hasn't returned yet and yoshi's is arguably the best he's ever been in the main series.
      Hate the hyper linear map if you want but 1's hub is functionally the exact same thing with extra steps. 2 is technically a step up because of that. I wish we could stop pretending that linear means worse because it really doesn't.
      I understand the complaint that there's little to no focus on the theme of space but was that ever really important to the first galaxy? Playing the first game, it felt more like the space setting was used to contextualise the rather ridiculous ideas and platforming logic that wouldn't fit in any other setting. There were still plenty of spacy looking areas in 2 and I don't see why space can only be stars on a black background. Who's to say space can't get a little bizarre, especially in a series as ridiculous as mario?
      I would urge you to play the second game again if you haven't done so in a while. Jamie himself said he didn't enjoy the second game quite as much as the first on his initial romp, while now it seems like he considers it the best platformer ever made.

    • @TheAbsol7448
      @TheAbsol7448 3 роки тому +2

      @@callinater6133 The level design might be better but I didn't like how most galaxies were even more linear than in the first game.
      Galaxy 2's hub is functionally different because you can't pick and choose galaxies at your leisure. You can skip so many galaxies if you really want to, and there's even an entire observatory that's completely optional. Since it follows a NSMB style map, the hud is completely pointless. The map really threw me off when I first played it because I was expecting a game that was actually designed like Galaxy 1.
      I'd argue that the focus on the space theme is absolutely important in a game called "Super Mario Galaxy 2". Bizarre? The first game did that. You don't have to abandon the space theme almost entirely to make it bizarre.

    • @callinater6133
      @callinater6133 3 роки тому +1

      @@TheAbsol7448 even more linear is not necessarily a flaw. And galaxy’s sandbox levels were among the weakest levels in the game if you ask me. Mario’s moveset in galaxy just isn’t tailored with exploration in mind. I can guarantee you that if the entirety of galaxy were those sandbox galaxies the game would be far worse than 64 or sunshine. Non linearity for the sake of non linearity is not good design - it just screams a lack of confidence from the developers to make a well thought out level. 2 was much more confident in what it wanted to be, which is a course clear platformer. If you don’t like it then that means the format just isn’t for you, it doesn’t make the game worse.
      Galaxy 2’s more linear map progression allows the game to ramp up its difficulty more easily than the first game, which it does. And because there are levels that Nintendo knew everyone would have to play, they could design some of the later levels around expanding on the concepts of those levels and making them more challenging.
      Who cares about the progression that much anyway? Both of them have their ups and downs. And you only have to play the first mission in the compulsory galaxies, other than that it’s just as free as galaxy 1 in terms of progression.
      ‘I’d argue that the focus on the space theme is absolutely important in a game called super Mario galaxy 2.’ Well, that’s how you choose to view the series. But frankly that sounds silly to me. Super Mario world didn’t have much focus on ‘world’ nor did mario land have much focus on ‘land.’ And when you get right down to it, a galaxy is just as broad as those things. Mario historically has never been designed around its setting - its setting is designed around the game. If you choose to apply importance to these themes (even if 2 still had a lot of those space themed galaxies. Seriously can we stop pretending 2 completely abandoned the space theme?) then go ahead, but I feel like if you were to complain about how the setting isn’t realistic enough in literally any other platformer you’d probably raise a LOT of eyebrows.
      That said I won’t deny the first game’s atmosphere made it special, but I don’t think it’s really enough to tip the scales in its favour. The game was also very easy - something I’ve began to notice on repeat playthroughs.

    I appreciate how highly you regard NSMB's Wii and Wii U, and especially 3d world. All of those games get shit on, especially 3d world, so it's nice to see someone who truly appreciates those games. Mario 3 at seven is quite a bit too low for me though, and while everyone seems to love 64, I just want to see SOMEONE who thinks it's a middle of the road Mario game at best. It is, in fact, my least favorite 3d Mario game. I'd so much rather play 3d World/Land and the Galaxies. The platforming in those games is just clearly on another level than 64 imo. I realize that 64 was groundbreaking and I respect that. But the original Super Mario Bros. was every bit as ground breaking and most people have recognized that it's not one of the better games in the series because it's so limited. I await the day that people will realize the same thing about 64. It was an important event in video game history, but other games came along and did it better. Just my two cents.

    64 has always been the best Mario game in my opinion. It's seriously one of the best video games of all time. Everything, from the soundtrack to the level design to exploring the castle, it's just something that you can't get enough of. For some reason, Super Mario 64 has always made me feel emotional and I don't know what it is, I'm not nostalgic since I was born long after the N64, I don't know. The soundtrack always makes me tear up, whether it be the Staff Roll or the castle theme. I love Super Mario 64, and no other Mario game can ever surpass it. The Galaxy games are a very close second though.
