As a tryhard completionist,Super Mario Odyssey was a dream come true. There is always something new everywhere you go,and it feels rewarding to actually complete.

Bro really said "and the bosses are the koopalings once again" for New Super Mario Bros Wii despite being the first modern Mario game featuring the koopalings.

[@JustinEichenbaum]

Yeah, you can't take away points for the koopalings existing because it was the first time they came back meaning it was not stale.

[@thebestworst8002]

It’s called a game aging. The over abundance of koopalings in the games following NSMBWII has caused their original modern appearance to be much worse when you play it 10 years later

[@laredotxspidey]

@@thebestworst8002 yeah, but it was only 2 games after nsmbwii. I mean like, I understand, but it's not like they were used even in the 3D titles. I feel the issue is that Nintendo itself doesn't give them enough importance as bosses. In nsmbwii, they actually bothered to make original boss fights with each koopaling and actually make each fight challenging. However, in the next 2 games, they just kinda repeated previously used ideas and removed any challenge for most of the fights. That's what I see as the issue.

[@umbrellasquid9669]

[@orlyjavier3627]

They kind of are. Games like 64 will always be praised for pioneering a genre. It might be the greatest game of all time but is it the funnest? Also no reason for 64 DS to be down at 47 for one reason.

[@soph_evvs]

[@ottern2885]

56:08 "It´s more complex when the babies are involved". 💀

[@mattbabineau197]

64DS being so low on the list is baffling. Especially considering 64’s spot on the list. It’s one thing to prefer the original, but I don’t think the DS controls are so much worse to warrant putting way, way down the list in comparison.

[@BadWordHater]

I agree. I've played SM 64 DS quite a bit. And I've also played a number of platformers with proper analog control. It's really not a hit on the controls to be 8-directional. When Nathaniel says the controls are extremely janky, the physics are wonky, there's a run button, little control when long-jumping, there's a run button, and turning/running around doesn't feel good. Ok, first 2 things, I genuinely do not understand what's meant. He's even contradicting himself when he agreed the controls are fine. Fine does not equal janky. The physics I remember are fine. There's a run button. GOOD. Helps with when you need finer-control. Last thing whatever, it's a feeling. I understand missing analog control if that's what you're used to. But like I said. I've played SM 64 DS fine. And I've always been very in-control of mario and been able to do all the moves I want to easy-peasy.

[@BadWordHater]

@@Chillllllllllllllllllllllll From the number of complaints he had it sure didn't sound like it. The controls seem to be a huge issue with the DS version for him.

@@jclkaytwo Very true. I never understood the run button at the time, but I just started playing the game again last week. Surprisingly, years later, now that I'm old and not as good at gaming I find myself wishing I DID have a run button, because I keep running myself off cliffs and whatnot -_- Plus, Mario is lame. Luigi time, all the time!

Exactly. It even was called "Mario Story" in Japan. They just went bananas with the concept of "things are paper" and it really hindered the experience, more than anything. And they ALREADY were playing a lot in the "arts-n-craft" aestethics because of that Yoshi game, so it was even more repetitive

[@Zitsanrael1117]

Not surprising to see SM64 at the top but I've always believed it hasn't aged all that well, specifically the controls and movement physics. I'm nostalgic as hell for it, I got it for Xmas in '96 when I was just shy of 6 years old, but even so, it's tough for me to go back to it when I can just play Odyssey or Galaxy. I pretty much have to readjust to the controls again every time I turn SM64 on, which I just personally find kind of frustrating. Whereas the release of SM3DAS was the first time I had played Galaxy in a few years and I still felt right at home. For as much love as I have for SM64 itself, it's a game I really have to talk myself into replaying nowadays.

[@TheEPICMarioBros2]

neat. I just have my brain switch to different controls movesets so I can feel used to every game without issue. like how I managed to make Super Mario Kart feel almost at intuitive as MK8D for me.

[@paulgilbert5278]

Yeah, I knew Super Mario 64 would at least make it in the top 3

[@Zitsanrael1117]

@@TheEPICMarioBros2 that's ridiculous dude, and I don't mean that to be insulting or anything. The idea that anyone could think Super Mario Kart controls as well as MK8D is crazy to me. Don't get me wrong, I get that older games require the proper mind set to play and I can certainly get down with that for certain games. Just because we have Dread now doesn't mean I'm not gonna play Super Metroid again. But perhaps that's not a fair comparison given that one is 2D and the other is 3D. I am of the opinion that older 3D games don't hold up as well as older 2D games but that's kind of to be expected honestly. What I do feel confident in saying though, is that Dread doesn't feel like a "better" Metroid, it feels like a "different" one compared to Super. There are things I can do in Dread that I can't in Super and vice versa, making them both worth playing to me. Even if I do think Dread is the better game personally. But SM64 on the other hand, I can literally do everything in Odyssey or Galaxy that I can do in SM64 (plus a lot more) only much more fluidly and responsively, making SM64 just feel like a "lesser" version of them. The last time I played Super Metroid, which was about a month ago or so, I never thought to myself that I could be playing Dread instead. But when SM3DAS dropped and I started up SM64 again, it didn't take long for me to catch myself thinking I'd rather just be playing Odyssey.

[@metallicfingers]

same. mario 64 was a great game for it's time, but got damn, i don't even think it's a top 5 mario game, let alone the best one. probably not even top 10 with all of the other bangers in the franchise. sometimes the controls feel airtight, other times they feel slippery and out of my control. sometimes the camera needs no adjustment, sometimes it causes my deaTH LIKE IN LETHAL LAVALAND OR THAT STUPID MOVING BRIDGE IN WHOMP'S FORTRESS THAT TOOK WAY TOO LONG FOR ME TO GET ACROSS

[@HarvestHollows]

From a personal standpoint, I understand why he adores SM64. It's his passion and what defines him. But from a game standpoint? Yeah no, it's incredibly dated. Camera controls are abysmal and the awkward controls are sluggish and miserable for precise platforming. Good game? Absolutely. Top 5? Debatable when we have others like Galaxy or Odyssey like you said

It's hard when you're not used to it, but the fact that it has checkpoints at every world more than justifies the difficulty increase.

[@DanBanan69]

@@lordminatogaming3281 What we cannot criticize him for, is that he didn't put in the time and effort to get good at the game. What he has the patience to play is up to him, so no big deal. But Lost Levels had excellent controls and level design, and when you got good at the game, it felt awesome to breeze through the stages. For people who had played the original for a couple of years, it was super fun and engaging to tackle those hard stages. Saying it's a bad game is an uninformed statement. Just like saying Dark Souls is a bad game because of it's difficulty. "You fall to your death everywhere and the controls are stiff, how can anyone like this".

[@JohnLasseter-ct5in]

Ain't no way he put dream team lower than paper jam

[@avancarr8690]

Personally, my top ten from that list is as follows (from first to last) -Super Mario World: Biggest reason was the unlockable multi-color Yoshi's and all the secret exits. -Paper Mario Thousand Year Door: This introduced me to Mario RPG's as a whole and showed me a new way to enjoy games. Mario Odyssey: Controls feel tight and I feel like there's nothing really bad aside from the repetitive nature of the moons. -Super Mario Sunshine: Had less tight controls, camera was kinda wonky, but it got me and my sister through her cancer treatment so it holds a pretty special place in our hearts. -Super Mario Land: First Mario Game I owned and played to completion. I never got sick of playing this game and the first world song will always live in my soul rent free. -Mario party 4: When you're just scraping by, and your family can afford a single console and you have 2 or more siblings. This game turns what would be a boring "wait your turn" playtime into a fun adventure for everyone to enjoy. -Mario 64: This game has some jankiness to it overall. However I still remember the day I got an N64 for Christmas and booted this up for the first time. What a wild ride it has been. -New Super Mario Bros: This game allowed multiplayer madness and had a lot of secrets. -Mario Kart (Wii): I enjoyed the bikes in this game and overall had a lot of fun with my family. -Mario Kart Double Dash: This game has so much to collect and unlock. I love how the beginning screen has the characters being added as you unlock them. Hated how hard it was to get 3 stars though, sometimes those CPU's really just didn't want you to have a good time. I remember getting through 3 of the 4 races not getting hit by any items which, for those unaware you need to be hit by less than a certain amount of items to get a 3 star trophy. The last race I got nailed by 3 blue shells and got 2nd place. Forever 2 stars... D;

I disagree so hard with most of the choices on this list. But that's why I like watching your videos. You're not afraid to throw your own opinions rather than just saying what everyone else is clinging to. Every mario game is so subjective, as most of them are quality games. Even the games I think are worse or overrated like super mario sunshine, or mario bros 3, all of them are nice games and have their own fans (you know some sicko out there thinks sticker star is the best mario game.) It's such a subjective topic because everyone values different elements in games, which mario has such a large variety of.

[@alondite215]

It's really not subjective, though. What games you like the most is subjective, but what games are best can be demonstrated through their design. For example, SMB3 is objectively better than SMW because SMW makes design decisions (spin jump, random coin placement, inorganic level design, clumsy enemy functions, etc.) that ultimately limit its depth and its interactive potential.

[@franceskinskij]

yeah.... I'd agree if it wasn't for the controls. The fact that B is the jump button and A is the attack button feel counter intuitive. Pair that with having Y being a run button at all and X being a camera control for some reason? Not to mention the awkward camera controls, I have to take my hand off the buttons to change the camera angle. Frankly I feel like it was way ahead of its time. It could have worked better if it had been released on 3ds, with the Dpad for the camera controls, A as the jump button and X as the attack, without a run button

I disagree with most of the picks on here (Especially when some remakes should be ranked higher than their original because they fixed things wrong with the original), but I do appreciate the effort it took to put this list together and the explanations on why.

[@ciennaquidd6486]

The problem with a lot of the remakes is that they were also ports and changed significant aspects of the game in the process. The process of moving NES & SNES games to the GBA lead to them washing out a lot of the visuals, reducing sound quality etc. The quality of life improvements were good but it's hard to say they warrant the quality dip in other areas. Same with 64 DS (which I personally prefer cause the controls never bothered me, but I understand Bandy's point) and the Mario & Luigi games (diminished style). But when it came to Mario 3D World, the port was significantly higher because there weren't any quality dips. I've got to agree with his list on this one.

Because if we were to compare all three, Odyssey is way better in every aspect as a video game compare to Mario 3 and 64 and that’s a fact smh…

[@MrEvol94]

Nice list! I would make some minor adjustments if I made one tho :) Double dash being the main change. It is the better mario kart in my opinion because you need to be more skilled to perform well at it and there's even a tiny strategic element with character picks since it will determine what car you can use and what special items you can get. Mk8 being more accesible isnt bad tho, but double dash will always be THE mario kart for me

[@MarkyBoyTV]

Nathaniel has really outdone himself in this list. Amazing! Also, this is an extra special time to make this video. This year marks 40 YEARS since Mario's debut! :)

That's true. You're just playing against computers who have random names.

31:06 I can see the problems with the movement sometimes, but playing this on the 3ds makes this alot higher up, maybe even in top 10 or 15

[@alfredogaming2878]

I agree It does make the controles MUCH easier.

[@ItsMeTylerrr]

I wouldn’t say top 10 or 15 but definitely it should be much higher

You can use the thumb pad on the bottom screen to move freely on the DS

[@valentin6824]

In my oppinion, except the Controllings IT IS objecticely better than the normal mario 64

[@obbyistguywhodoessomeguides]

super mario odyssey deserves to be this high. i finished the game a few years ago and no matter how many times ive played it, it will always be fun. the bosses are amazing and creative, the concept is creative and fun, the whole entire game is fun.

And remeber that its still missing other spin-off titles sush as the Sport games, the Mario Vs. Donkey Kong titles, Luigi's Mansion, Donkey Kong games, Yoshi games, Wario games, etc...

Apparently, Nintendo wasn't going to do 3D All-Stars at all until the rumors caught fire. That's why it seems so slapped together, because they spent less than a year making it.

It's honestly astonishing how you put TTYD over Super Mario Bros 3 even though I've never really seen you as an RPG guy

[@Goatman_Gamer]

I remember playing Yoshi's Island for the first time. God it was so damn good I couldn't get enough of it. Beating that final boss made me cry because my adventure was over. Such an amazing game.

[@Largeamountsdaily]

Agreed

[@kistar3460]

Agreed, best mario game in my opinion!

[@user-zw3on4bx2t]

I agree. . .but its not actually a mario game so it shouldn't be on this list

[@Mario4736]

I agree with mostly everything except 1) The remakes have to be above the originals 2) you're blind by nostalgia and dedication if/by putting Mario 64 as first

[@mariajimenafigueroa233]

@Garatchten Gaming Yeah like how U Deluxe was ruined by unfunny NSFW fanart

[@SebfanV5]

SPOILERS SHUT UP ERASE COMMENT PLZ

[@TheDanson14]

maybe it is nostalgia, but I personally would also put 64 as first. it's really the only mario game I have the urge to be like "alright let's just play this again." only real complaint is that mario maker 2 should've been higher but his reasoning was fair :p
