Last week we asked you to vote for your favourite Mario spin-off series & never before has top spot changed throughout the week, but in the end there could only be one winner. With 32% of the vote, the king of spin-offs goes to the Paper Mario series! The charming paper world, live battles & humourus story captivated you more than any other Mario series taking a well deserved top spot. Mario’s handheld RPG series, Mario & Luigi, also scored well taking 12% of the vote. Despite being top of the charts for most the the week, Mario Kart eventually finished the race in second place with an admirable 24% of the vote. Third place goes to Mario’s larger, greedier & far more windy relative Wario, with the Wario Land series taking 12% of the vote. Speaking of adversaries, Mario Vs Donkey Kong trailed just behind with 8% of the vote, leaving sports titles Mario Tennis & Mario Strikers last to rank with just 4%.
This week we bring you he last of our current set of Mario polls. We have found that Galaxy captivated your hearts, & Paper Mario charmed you all, but now we are asking you to settle the battle between the classic and the new as we ask do you enjoy 2D or 3D Mario games the most? As always we will be back next week with the results and more poll fun!
Last week, with the release of New Super Mario Bros. Wii, we asked you what was your favourite main Mario game and one game clearly stood ahead of the rest and proved itself as being truly out of this world. Taking a massive 40% of the votes was Mario’s latest (and now officially greatest) adventure to the stars, Super Mario Galaxy. Following in 2nd place was Mario’s theatrical adventure Super Mario Bros. 3 with 14% of the vote. The other likely suspects, Super Mario World & Super Mario 64, followed close behind with 11% of the vote. Both Super Mario World 2: Yoshis Island & Super Mario Bros 2 managed to take 6% of the votes, with Super Mario Sunshine & The Lost Levels both taking 3%. Over on the handhelds, Super Mario Land 2: The Six Golden Coins & New Super Mario Bros. both managed to muster 3% each.
Of course, Mario isn’t just a “Princess saving plumber specialising in rescues from castles owned by giant fire breathing turtle monsters”. Over the years Mario has been a Racer, Sporting Legend, Doctor, Party Planner & even a Piece Of Paper. Therefore, this week we are asking you what is your favourite Mario spin-off series? The poll includes any series that isn’t considered part of the ‘main Mario platforming series’ and has two or more games in the series.
As always we look forward to seeing the results and will be back next week with the last of our current Mario polls. Why not leave us a comment about what makes each series your favourite, or which particular games in the series you love?
After what has definitely not been a week longer than the usual time between polls we are here to once again dive into our listeners collective consciousness and answer another burning question. Before that though we need to wrap up last weeks voting antics. We asked you which consoles you would like to see added to Virtual Console in the future.
Unsurprisingly Nintendo’s consoles came out on top with Gameboy Advance taking 27% of the vote, Gameboy/Gameboy Color taking 17% and the headache inducing Virtual Boy also taking 17%. On the console front, the Sega Saturn took top spot with (once again) 17% of the votes, followed by the Atari 2600 and Amiga taking 10% each. With just 3.5% of the vote, the console that started it all, the Magnavox Odyssey, was the final console to receive votes.
Moving onto this week, with Mario & Co. making their way back to consoles with New Super Mario Bros, we want to know what is the greatest Mario game of all time? We are only looking at the ‘main series’ of games this week, with next week giving you an opportunity to vote for your favourite spin-off series.
Make your votes count and why not leave us a comment and let us know what made that special game so special for you?
Jack & Daan take a look at what October had to offer on WiiWare & DSiWare. From training brains to eating them, and from scratching heads to lopping them off the team take you through the best there is to offer, as well as those you have to wonder what the point is of them.
