One thing I like is when Mario reads the title of the game, because it makes me feel the fun and energy the game exudes.

To my knowledge, these games are read by Mario when you start the game:
- Super Mario Sunshine
- Mario vs Donkey Kong
- Super Mario Galaxy
- Super Mario 3D World (Together with others)
- Mario Party 3 (Together with others)
- Mario Kart 8
- Mario Bros. (in the Super Mario Advance games)
- Super Mario Bros. 2 (in Super Mario Advance, as "Super Mario 2")

(EDIT 1) More titles added:
- Mario Kart Wii (together with others)
- Mario Kart 7
- New Super Mario Bros. Wii
- Super Mario 3D Land
- Mario Teaches Typing
- Mario Tennis (Nintendo 64)
- Mario Party 8 (Together with others)
- New Super Mario Bros. 2

Note that these factors are excluded:
1) If whatever is said is different from the title (e.g.: Mario Kart 64 ["Welcome to Mario Kart-a"], Super Mario World in Super Mario Advance 2 ["Super Mario!"])
2) If a different person is reading the title (e.g.: Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, Super Mario Maker)

Are there any other games where Mario reads the game title?

Thanks for reading.
 
Mario Kart Wii (together with others)
Mario Kart 7
New Super Mario Bros. Wii
Super Mario 3D Land
New Super Mario Bros. 2 (i think)

All those except Mario Kart 7 are on the Home Menu/Disc Channel.
 
Mario Teaches Typing.

Mario Tennis (Nintendo 64), title screen.

Mario Party 8, Wii Disc Home Menu Channel. That crowd you're hearing is actually a crowd of Mario characters yelling the name out loud, and Mario's one of them.

I *think* Mario's Fundamentals, but not entirely sure.

Thank you for the contribution! I will add 4 of them into the title, except New Super Mario Bros. 2 (until it's confirmed).

OK, will add those.

I am not sure about Mario's FUNdamentals, but I know Mario said "Mario's Game Gallery".

Thanks for reading.

You forgot, "It's a-me, Mario," which is the best Mario game.

Ha ha, I guess I did! But then, I don't think Mario reads the title of the game (Super Mario 64) where he said that.

I confirmed that Mario does say "New Super Mario Bros. 2" on the Home Menu.

Alright, added this one then!

Thanks for reading.
 
Mario obliterates your eardrums and wakes everyone up in the household neighbourhood as he shouts the title of his new cosmic Wii adventure.
 
There is a later topic that asks something similar: https://www.marioboards.com/threads/39939/

But yes, there are actually some titles not listed here, namely:
- Super Mario Advance's two games (not the main title itself), so he says "Super Mario USA"/"Super Mario 2" and "Mario Bros". Later Super Mario Advance games don't have this luxury, since the primary game either were just "Super Mario" or a Yoshi sound.
- Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour, which is the only Mario Golf game where Mario narrates the title.
- Super Mario Ball/Mario Pinball Land, which is another instance (besides Super Mario Advance's Super Mario Bros. 2) where Mario reads different titles depending on the version.

Thank you for reading.
