Mario Kart 8: I'm including Deluxe here, because I don't want to have to remember what was added later. I'm sure that Mario Kart purists have some agreement that an older game is the best one, or that DD is the best in the series because it innovated or whatever. But I just want dumb, mindless kart-racing in my Mario Kart. I just want like thirty characters and ninety stages and a bunch of random items and functional controls, and Mario Kart 8 delivers on all of that. Call me a casual, call me whatever. It's the perfect Mario Kart for me personally, even if its roster is bloated with the Koopalings and Peachette and Pink Gold Peach and other trash characters that no one uses, that's fine, I accept that. It even has the best guest character in Link. It's maybe not perfect, but it's close enough for my purposes.

Doopliss: How long did it take you to realize? I figured it out after only a second or two, but I've heard of people waiting an entire minute. Anyway, Doopliss is obviously great. He's probably the best villain character in all of TYYD, and surely the best one relative to the amount of time you see him. This is the closest we've ever gotten to fighting Mario (aside from DK Jr), and it's fun! Everything about Doopliss is fun. That's why everyone likes him. "Hey, how do you think he became one of the Shadow Sirens? Isn't that...weird? How do you think he stands Beldam's abuse? You think he's all right in the head?" Goombella asking the real questions.

Bullet Bill: I remember this youtube video of Mario reimagined as like some serious gang thing, and Bullet Bill is just a guy with a rifle. Anyway, I like bullet bills, and I always have. They're the most business-oriented of Bowser's minions. Goombas and Koopas always came across as just being guys doing their jobs, but bullet bills look way more serious. Like Bob-ombs, though, their lives are necessarily short. One wonders if they ever think about their mayfly time on Earth before Mario stomps on them to reach a cliff.

Ultimate Show (Theme): I actually kind of dislike the first 16 seconds, but after it picks up, it gets pretty good. As far as final boss music for an evil jester goes, this is good. Can I just say, I tend to dislike evil clowns as an archetype? I think the only good ones are Pennywise, the Joker (and only like 1/3rd of his verions), and Dimentio. Yeah, I'm excluding Jevil on purpose.

Super Mario 3D World: It's definitely better than Super 3D Land. When it came out, I decided I was going to beat every level, including the challenge ones. Then I just didn't. I appreciate that they actually went the extra mile and gave all of the characters unique powers, and even threw in a fifth bonus character... although Rosalina is ridiculously overpowered. Cat Mario is such a good idea that it even gets to be the power-up featured in the movie! Double cherries are super cool... and then the others are just the standard power-ups, it's fine. I'd say that this game is fun and slightly memorable, but it's certainly not groundbreaking or super interesting. As a random pointless Mario adventure, it blows all of the NSMBs out of the water.

Dorrie: I don't hate them, as like the water Yoshis. I'm not a huge fan of the sliding minigames they're associated with, but it's fine. It's shocking how barebones its original appearance is, just a blue Loch Ness Monster, and all later appearances have goofy googles. Definitely an improvement. I dunno, I kind of like them, honestly. Oh wait, did I mix this character up with Plessie? Whatever.

Mushroom: I am forced to assume that war means all mushrooms in general, because he is purposefully phrasing these things to be as vague as possible to cause me problems. That's fine. Ignoring the "lol shrooms" joke that we all made in high school, mushrooms obviously have a key place in the series for aesthetics, but they have never once been important in terms of, like, influencing anything. Does that make sense? Like, the mechanics and biology of mushrooms are important only in the sense that there are levels where you jump on mushroom caps that are suspended in the air by stalks, and all other mushroom-related imagery in the series has nothing to do with how you actually play the game. I have no idea what inspired the use of mushrooms, by the way. They're not in the pre-SMB games, and mushrooms aren't associated with size changing, and they don't move around on the ground. Why mushrooms of all things were chosen to grant the player magic powers is beyond me. The problem with mushrooms now is that they're such the default that they no longer feel special at all. You're never excited to get a mushroom, but you might be excited to get a fire flower, you get me?

Wart: Does Wart... exist? He's only in Subcon, which is just Mario's fever dream. I dunno. As an alternative to Bowser, he is better than Tatanga, but Tatanga is at least not another amphibious green king, which Wart is. What is Wart's goal, even? What is he hoping to accomplish? The Mario Wiki just says he's trying to conquer Subcon, but like, to what end, and why? Even Bowser has more characterization. Like, look at this dialogue: "I am the great Wart!" "Ah, ribbit!" I guess I like his fancy jewelry and cape, it gives him a more hedonistic and idolent appearance than Bowser, and the fact that he attacks by burping bubbles to travel toward you, as opposed to Bowser, who yes breathes fire but also is happy to get up close and personal, does give him at least some IMPLICIT difference, but that's like literally all there is to this character.

Somari: I'm actually shocked the NES can replicate Sonic 1 like this. I didn't think it was powerful enough. The idea of making Sonic 1, but Sonic is replaced with Mario, is really good. The problem is that it should have just been Mario's mechanics instead of Sonic's. Seeing Mario zoom around and turn into a ball as he jumps, I dunno. The wonky physics, I can take or leave it, and I recognize that the game is kind of bad, but the sheer effort of porting Sonic 1 onto the NES, and the idea of Mario replacing Sonic, is worth some points.

Negative Zone: I don't hate Negative Zone, and I recognize how it represents Luigi's awkwardness and the fact that he's always in his brother's shadow... but it has nothing to do with any game Luigi is in. You can't even say that Sakurai got the idea for using the Poltergust later, since Luigi's Mansion well predates Brawl. Still, this is better than any of the other Mario final smashes that are original to Smash, so it has that going for it.

Mario Mandate: I don't know how real it is, but there must be at least some validity. You look at how weird and inventive the first three Paper Marios are, and then how genericized and bland their sequels are. Until Mario Wonder, every 2D Mario title since World has just been the exact Platonic ideal of Mario instead of doing anything even remotely interesting. Even Wonder is like, just sort of mixing things up a little, and that still comes across as super innovative! This probably does help prevent Mario from having any truly unplayable games, like again Sonic has, but again to compare Mario to Zelda, the most boring and generic Zelda title is Skyward Sword because it does nothing unique or interesting? That was like every Mario game for ten years.
Chill (Dr. Mario Theme)
Green Missile Random Misfires
Torpedo Ted
Mario Finale
Super Mario Run: I have zero interest in autorunners. I've only ever played Temple Run, and briefly. This is the kind of game designed to appeal to like, I don't know, middle-aged moms. I guess I can respect it having a lot of playable characters, let's see... Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy, Toad, Toadette, and then five colors of Yoshi. Yeah, great. Get out of here. Say what you want about Zelda, but it whores itself out for these kinds of games and spinoffs much less than Mario and Pokemon.

You could throw boomerangs in some of those e-reader levels on the GBA well before 2011, but it wasnt a whole Boomerang Suit, they were just an item you could carry and throw, like those white blocks.

Nominate Tiny Toon Adventures for NES. If you are curious how this relates to Mario, just look at the images and gifs in this French article: https://upsilandre.over-blog.com/2021/10/du-clonage-chez-konami.html

Smithy: I mean, he's barely a character, but it's fine. As the final boss to an RPG, he's very fine. His appearance is kind of interesting; Mario characters are very rarely mechanical and robotic, they tend to just be creatures or plants come to life. This guy looks like a robotic Santa Claus dwarf king, and you fight him in a dark, gross factory. Smithing his own head to turn it into things to attack you with is an inspired choice. Even though I do like Smithy, he's not as good as Dimentio or the Shadow Queen, but Smithy also only shows up for five seconds before you fight him. He's not exactly the Necron of Mario, but he's not that far off.

Mario 64 Got Milk Commercial: One of the classic 90s commercials. Although, these kids at the start of the commercial jumping into a wall over and over again, man they suck. I've never seen such bad playing. Even for seven-year-olds, they just completely suck. And it's like... I'm sorry, there's already a type of food that Mario consumes that makes him grow, and it's sure as hell not milk. But the nostalgia of this commercial is so strong that I just don't care.

Heavy Troopa: It seems the remake renamed them to "Big Troopas," okay. Well, the idea of really fat Paratroopas is kind of funny, and the threat they pose to you is immediately obvious, so I'm on board with this. I like their stupid half-closed eyes, like they're barely awake and able to force themselves out of bed to fight Mario. But I bet you nominated them for the quote "Heavy Troopa's ready to launch," which is actually a really good way to get across to a dumbass 10-year-old that it's about to fly into Peach's face. Strange that these were invented by Mario RPG, and have never appeared in a real game, though.
Bowser
Super Mario Wonder: It's interesting that THIS is considered innovative and crazy by Mario standards. It does anything differently at all, and people (including me) treat it like a huge innovation. It's like... this is the amount of difference and innovation that would ideally be in each Mario game. Like, imagine if instead of fifteen years of NSMBs, each game innovated and differed as much as SMW. How much different would the "default" Mario game be by now? I don't know! This isn't like the greatest 2D Mario game ever, but it sure as hell blows half of them out of the water. Also, the return of Daisy? I wonder what motivated that decision. Probably an attempt to establish that this will be a slightly off-kilter Mario game.

Goombas: THE video game enemy. Nothing about them makes any sense, except that they tie into the theme of "mushrooms," but you immediately understand that they're here to be enemies. They even look sort of nonthreatening, like they're enemies, but they can't really do much to hurt you, just walk slowly at you and scowl. At least Koopa Troopas have hands. So much of Goomba culture will never be explained, like how they can even manufacture hats, or why they serve Bowser, or why they even bother trying to fight Mario. I dunno, there's just something that screams "mundane weakling" about them, even though if a mushroom sprouted legs, grew to be a foot tall, and started walking at me with a scary face, I'd be terrified.

Goombella: It was a good idea to make goombas be the 'normal guy who teams up with you at the start of the game' companions. The Carth Onasi of Mario, if you will. Goombella is definitely better than Goombario, but I don't know if I'd call her especially good. She is sassier than him, though, which is to her benefit. I don't think I ever used her again after I got other companions. And man, imagine being part of a race where the first syllable of everyone's name has to be "Goom," you'd run out of short names so fast. She got insanely lucky with a three-syllable one.

Chain Chomp: Such a great enemy. You immediately understand the rules it operates under, you immediately understand that it behaves like a territorial chained-up dog, and it just looks cool. It looks like it'd plausibly fuck Mario up if it touches him, unlike a Goomba. Too bad we never got a chain chomp companion in the RPGs.

Rip Van Fish: I mean, sure. It's an enemy that punishes you for playing poorly. You immediately have the chance to avoid them, if you can't, it's on you. It's like an extra game within a game. The problem is that they're only in water levels, and no one likes water levels. I don't know if any game ever has a water level that people actually like, except games that are entirely water levels.
Shellcreeper
Tattle: The scan spell in FF, except now it's just a character's main ability. God, sorry, I'm thinking about Persona right now, I'm playing through P3R, and I'd kill for an ability like this. You play through that game and know that every enemy has a weakness, but what the weakness will be is completely random and nonsensical. You look at a tree guy and hit it with fire, and then its weakness is lightning or something.

Tiny Toon Adventures (NES): Wow, so this is a Mario Bros clone made by... Konami? Hm, must've been made in the Before Times, long ago, before their souls had been completely corrupted by pachinko. Honestly, it doesn't look terrible. It has four playable characters with unique abilities, it doesn't look AWFUL to control, and some stuff is changed up from the original. Like, I could imagine playing this as a kid, maybe, unlike most of the other clones I've seen here.

Wapeach: I expected Wapeach to be in one of the first nomination groups. I guess I made this topic a month too late. My feelings on her are simple: Miyamoto was absolutely in the right to shut this down. She'd completely change the dynamic of Wario and Waluigi, she's just a reference to an anime character (albeit, I didn't catch it, because I don't know much about classic anime), and her design just isn't that great to start with. The only part I really like is the Xs cut out of her dress. She's not horrendous, and she is better than some real Mario characters, but the series is better off without her.

Mario Punch: I mean, I've never drank this, and it was last sold in 1994, so there's no way I can possibly rank it. "The taste of Mario Punch Soda was said to be a Fruit Punch flavored soda." I couldn't even find examples of it for sale on Amazon. I can only presume that this forgotten soda wasn't very good. To be honest, I don't like punch, I mostly only drink water.

Mario Tennis (GBC): God, the GBC was still around in 2001! This was AFTER the GBA had already come out. Remember when Nintendo just lied and said the GBA and DS would run concurrently? Ha. How utterly bizarre a concept, an RPG mode where you play as randos in attempt to beat the ultimate tennis player: Mario. Anyway, let me tell you, I think the GBC was just straight-up not up to the task of simulating a tennis game correctly. And what is with these early-mid 2000s Mario sports games and including a ton of no-name randos? I don't want to play as Beth. I'm playing a Mario game, I want to play as Mario characters. Sean can get fucked.

Super Mario Bros. (G&W): Finding gameplay of this game was way more difficult than I expected. Why would I ever want to play SMB on a G&W system? The announcement trailer proudly tells me that the system also has a clock. This launched in November of 2021. I can't possibly imagine anything less impressive than your electronic device having a clock in 2021. The only electronics I own that don't have clocks are my airpods and calculator, and if you told me that TI-85s have a secret clock function I don't know about, I would not really be surprised. This is just the dumbest thing. People who spend their time porting Doom to washing machines or whatever are spending it better than this game.
