Overworld is iconic and quite well written, though maybe a bit overused now. Underwater is pretty good too. Underground is a bit overly simple in the original game but it could be worse. Castle theme's not all that great. Peach's theme is good but would be way better if they had been able to include the whole thing as they had planned (which they succeeded in doing in Lost Levels). I vote for Overworld and Underwater.

Unsurprisingly, Overworld is the most popular theme, and indeed, this is the theme that comes to mind when it comes to Mario. There's a reason it's overused. Although not as popular, the Underground and Underwater themes have their fans, as they're quite catchy too. Peach's Theme would probably fare better if it's based on the extended theme. The loser here is Castle, which hardly anybody likes that it got zero votes, a first so far.

The next poll will be another character-based on, this time dealing with you favourite Koopalings. For this one, you can only choose up to 3 out of the 7 available Koopalings.

Thank you for reading.
 
i don't exactly have one but i think larry has to be a mention. nostaliga for christmas day 2011 when i beat the whole of world one in new super mario bros wii a single sitting (that's a lot of gaming for 8 year old me)

little did i know what would await me five days later...
 
Mine is definitely Ludwig. He's the oldest, smartest (perhaps besides Iggy), and he's generally the last Koopaling that the player fights, not to mention that I also like his hairstyle.

Iggy's my fave, but for my two other picks I'm going with Ludwig and Roy.

Such great tastes over here. 😛

Ludwig is my favorite one. On the 2D Platformers, he always has unique strategies in each of the games that you fight him (unique boss fight in SMW, only Koopaling who doesn't use the same fighting style from SMB3 on the fortress boss fight in NSMBW). That's why he always stand-out the most in my opinion.

If I go with two other picks, Lemmy is my second favorite (he's just a cute little guy, and I love his attitude), followed by Wendy.
 
Morton is my new favorite thanks to Bowser Jr.'s Journey. Also if there's one thing I can give Color Splash credit for, it's giving Morton such an endearingly dim personality that, in Bowser Jr.'s Journey, is the most adorable thing- he's just a big softie that wants to protect Bowser Jr, who in turn goes from being mean to him (and the other Koopalings) to realizing how nice they treated him, to feeling guilty for being mean, and eventually rescuing Morton from control of the BFF's, resulting in a teary reunion. It was also heartbreaking when Morton first got brainwashed, and with the last ounces of control desperately ordered Jr. to run away while he still could, fighting as hard as he could not to succumb to the enemy. Followed by him going mad with power and KO'ing Bowser Jr. and Kamek.

The other two? Probably Ludwig and Iggy.

He's not a softie, he's just exceedingly loyal.

Other than that though I agree, best Koopaling.
