taking the order which i listed in my spreadsheet, which i honestly can't guarantee for the earlier ones because i was so young and can't remember, but i'm moderately sure this is mostly correct.

mario kart wii (age 6) -> new super mario bros ds (7) -> super mario galaxy 2 (7) -> donkey kong country returns (8) -> new soup wii (8) -> super paper mario (8) -> mario vs donkey kong mini land mayhem (9) -> bowser's inside story (9), super mario galaxy 1 (9) -> mario party 9 (9) -> london 2012 (9) -> mario party 8 (10, never owned this one) -> (insert very large gap here) -> paper mario ttyd (15) -> super mario sunshine (16) -> super mario 64 (16) -> superstar saga (16) -> super mario land 1 (16) -> super mario land 2 (16) -> paper mario 1 (16) -> 3d world (16) -> super mario bros. 1 (16) -> 3d land (16) -> maker 1 (16) -> party 6 (16) -> super mario bros. 2 (16) -> donkey kong country returns 3d (17)

first from each series:
mario kart - wii
super mario 2d - soup ds
super mario 3d - galaxy 2
donkey kong - DKCR
paper mario - super paper mario
mario vs donkey kong - mini land mayhem
mario & luigi - bowser's inside story
party - 9
mario & sonic olymipcs - london 2012

Mario Kart Wii was among the first real video games I ever played, alongside Wii Sports and Wii Sports Resort. That was on Christmas 2009, I believe. I had recently turned 5 at that point.

Not long after we got New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Super Mario Galaxy 2, and Mario Party 8, all of which I have a ton of nostalgia for to this day. I believe I got them all around 2010 and 2011.

If listing first games by series, then I've listed them here, alongside the year I first played it in:

Super Mario (2D) - NSMBWii (2010)
Super Mario (3D) - Galaxy 2 (2011)
Mario Kart - Mario Kart Wii (2009)
Mario Party - Mario Party 8 (2010)
Mario & Luigi - Dream Team (2015)
Paper Mario - Color Splash (2016)
Mario Golf - World Tour (2014)
Mario Tennis - Open (2015)
Mario & Sonic - London 2012 (Wii) (2012)
Yoshi - New Island (2015)
Donkey Kong - DKC Returns (2010)
