What is your favorite and least favorite Mario game?

favorite is probably odyssey or donkey kong country tropical freeze or something
least favorite...... i dont realy have anything id call least favorite but techincally a few of the mario games ive played would count because i just do not really care for them . like i understand their importance but i respect them more than i like them
( this is mostly abt smb1 and to a lesser extent smb3 )
 
My favorite Mario game is Super Mario Galaxy 1. My least favorite is Yoshi: Touch & Go.
 
Favorite- SMB3

Least favorite- SMB. I considered saying SM64 but it has unique level design and a great soundtrack.

Favorite game with Mario in the title is Mario Kart Wii, if we're going that broad.
 
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is my favorite Mario game. I love Mario Kart, 8 Deluxe is moddable, Baby Luigi is playable, has the best customization in the series, has the most content, and has the best battle mode. Really tough to top that.

Least favorite Mario game is probably Super Mario Galaxy 2 and even then I'd say it's not bad, it's just hugely outclassed by the first one and I was extremely disappointed by it.

Oh, Mario Kart Tour is the worst Mario game objectively speaking but I didn't play that shit so.
 
I don't have much of a number one Mario game but Mario Kart and Mario Party remain two of my favorite series, and I also enjoy tennis, Strikers, baseball, Mario Sports Mix, golf a lot. Super Mario Odyssey is probably my favorite Mario game however. Just love roaming as Mario, hope Nintendo can somehow pull off an open world Mario; that'll be delicious, as I highly enjoyed BOTW and Horizon Zero Dawn and like the more open aspect of Odyssey despite that not being open world). I dig the genre, mmmhmm. Maybe sometime in the future, I just want an expansion to Odyssey, since there are some very lacking kingdoms like Ruined Kingdom and Mushroom Kingdom (which looks pretty depressing for a Mushroom Kingdom quite frankly, especially when you see it isolated from literally every other kingdom on the planet).

My absolute least favorite Mario game has to be Mario Kart Tour. I've said my piece on it, but recap: it's the only Mario game I deem harmful to play for anyone, parental advisory needed. It's the only Mario game that I know preys on its playerbase via exploiting people with ADHD, autism, and children through encouraging gambling. I've played it myself. I absolutely abhorred the gameplay, chalking it up to be Mario Kart but worse in nearly every aspect due to the messy slipshod controls, the sluggish speed, the boring as hell track designs that accommodate for the snoozefest auto acceleratre/auto steer/auto trick.

I don't see how any other Mario game's worse than a game that's not just a bad game but a complete hazard. I'd rather kids play Mario is Missing or Mario's Early Years Preschool Fun or Hotel Mario.
 
Super Mario Galaxy. It's good stuff (no nostalgia bias exists here)

Mario Party 10 and Mario Kart Tour. I hate the second one more but I've played the first more so I will put both
 
Favorite: Mario Kart Tour. Yes, the game pisses me off and is frustrating because the AI is a real b*tch, but I can't stop playing it. It has the best character roster out of any Mario game period, and the best selection of karts and gliders. New stuff gets added every two weeks and the selection of courses changes. Also, the Trick and Reverse variants that the tracks have is way better than Mirror mode. This is the only Mario game that I play everyday, and I've done so for the past two years.

Least favorite: Mario Party Island Tour
 
Mario Kart Wii. Perfect. Flawless. Masterpiece.
mario kart tour. Weak and rather lacking gameplay, even for a mobile racing game. Ignoring that it's objectively bad as it's also just manipulative with it's microtransactions.

I only play Mario Kart games.
