We all agree, whether you’re a Nintendo fanboy or not, that Mario is easily the greatest video game character ever created. More awesome than the blast processing of Sonic, more voluptuous than the tomb-raiding Lara Croft. That crazy Italian plumber has done it all and he’s always looking for a new adventure. After gone through so many worlds and experienced so many things, what can be considered Mario’s greatest achievements? That’s where the kooks at Screw Attack come into play (no pun intended) to reveal the 10 greatest Mario games of all time.


Was the list what you expected? Did it encompass everything that is Mario? Well, no, not exactly. They seemed to have skipped out on all of the Mario sports games that have ever been created, from Mario Golf and Mario Tennis (I’m talking original Game Boy here, as well as more recent versions on the GameCube and DS) to Super Mario Strikers and Mario Hoops 3-on-3. And what about the original Donkey Kong? Super Paper Mario? Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix? Okay, that last one definitely doesn’t deserve to be on this list.
