Ranking the 41 BEST Mario Games for the Super Mario Bros. 40th Anniversary
I mean, it's all in the title. Mario Kart World IS on the list. Where? Higher than 8 Deluxe? Number ONE?! You'll have to watch to find out!
NOTE: Games that don't have "Mario" in the title don't count. That means games like Luigi's Mansion or Princess Peach Showtime, as well as almost all games from the Donkey Kong and Wario franchises, are ineligible. Additionally, I didn't think it necessary to distinguish between remasters and remakes of games and their originals -- unless the remake truly stands on its own through new content (eg. Super Mario 64 DS). So, when Super Mario RPG, for example, pops up on the list, know I'm talking about both the original Super Nintendo game AND the Switch Remake (though I do mention that briefly in that section).
Which Mario games are your favorites? Do you agree with my list? Tell me in the comments!

Also, if you're reading this, go wishlist Well Dweller on your preferred platform. No reason in particular, I'm just listening to the Crypt Custodian OST while writing this, and it reminded me how excited I am for Kyle Thompson's next game. 😎
