Favorite Sub-series?

Dr. Furball · 04-20-2009, 11:15 AM

Now, while it's practically an accepted fact that the Super Mario Bros. series of platform games is among the best in the industry (if not THE best), many of the spin-off titles are worthy of mention.

My favorite is the Wario Land series, especially 2-4. Very deep and innovative 2D action combines with non-linearity and puzzle-solving. And let's not forget about the series' sense of humor and numerous hidden treasures for our portly plunderer to collect.

Mario Kart for me...lots of fond memories playing it with friends. It never gets old.

Wario Land, although Mario Kart comes close. I'm surprised Mario Party didn't hit that list...but who'd vote for it anyway?

^ Me. I played 7 of the 8 (main) console MP's. They're all good fun (and strategy in the latter ones)(except 5).

Then again, I'd still go for any of the Mario Sports games over MP.

A tie between Wario Ware and Mario Kart.

You should've made this multiple choice...

I voted Wario Land, anyway.

Whoops, I can't believe I forgot about that one. Must be a side effect of ignoring the series after 3.

You're right. Anyone know how to edit polls?

I don't think that can be done...I think a new one would have to be created, unless things have changed of course.
