I mean I've played Brawl before but I'm bad at it so we need to keep them close but SMG in front.

SMG is great, but 17 was a little high.

You, sir, need to play more games. Choosing the "best" game based on level of familiarity is kinda bullshit.

Are brawl and SMG the only ones you've played that remain on this list...?
Also, are you ranking how good of a game brawl is based on how good you are at it?

no it wasn't...

Not true.  How am I supposed to rank a game if I've never played it before?

I'm not really sure, but I'm gonna say no... because I DID heal it.

By playing it...? Idk, I'm not saying this forum game should be exclusive to people who have played a significant amount of mario games, but it would seem you haven't played many mario games, like, at all. Granted, the games remaining on this list are more of a combination of relatively older and newer games in comparison to the two that you actually do know, but if you haven't played the newer ones, and also haven't played super mario 64 (arguably the most popular/well known game in the entire series), then you would seem to have a very limited experience with the super mario franchise (although I'm not gonna pretend I expect everybody to be familiar with super mario RPG). Back to the question, though, of how you're supposed to rank a game if you've never played it before, that's exactly my goddamn point. How can you say a game is worse if you've never played it?

That was honestly more of a rhetorical question, seeing as you'd already essentially said that you are... again, having said that "[you're] bad at [brawl] so we need to keep them close but SMG in front." I was asking if that was your method within your previously established method of familiarity. But apparently you disagree with an answer that I thought to be pretty evident. In case you do consider more challenging games to be worse (as you've implied so far), then I know a game you might enjoy a lot more than anything on this list...

What, too much?

I mean, I had no intention of starting a debate on the logistics of how to decide which is the "best"; this whole thing is a game, after all. It's just that your method of voting parallels the methods that people use to actually evaluate games on their "quality", and these people who end up ranking games solely based on shallow criteria such as nostalgia frustrate me to no end, as they provide no help in actually advancing the gaming industry in the right direction.

No I've beaten subspace it's just that really advanced precise button mashing is beyond me.  I can beat, say a lv 9 computer every once in a while but my friends just destroy me.

EDIT:  Okay, yeah I've played like 5 minutes of SM64 on the DS, so it wasn't really the real thing.  And yeah I guess I'm not good with Mario games...  I played Mario 1, 2, and 3 on NES, skipped SNES and N64, played Super Mario Sunshine, NSMB Wii, Brawl, and both SMGs.
