How would you guys rank the Main 3D Mario games?
>>738367198Anything before Galaxy is snoyslop.
64 > Odyssey > Sunshine > Galaxy 2 > Galaxy 1 > 3DW > 3DL
>>7383671981. Super Mario 642. Super Mario Odyssey3. Super Mario Sunshine4. Super Mario 3D World5. Super Mario 3D Land6. Super Mario Galaxy7. Super Mario Galaxy 2I don't think too highly of the Galaxy games. They're a poor hybrid of sandbox and obstacle course 3D Mario gameplay.If you guys want a good breakdown of why the Galaxy games suck, check out Barry Kramer's video on it on YouTube.

3D WorldOdysseyGalaxy 2GalaxyBowser's Fury3D Land64SunshineNot sure what people see in 64 honestly, I played it as a kid too and I think it's been surpassed in terms of both level design and movement by the newer entries.
>>738368003it's only 30 minutes and basically hit on all the things I dislike about galaxy in the first 5 minutes, the fact that's more like a 2D mario structure wise in that you have to beat linear instead of the more open formats of 64 and Sunshine.
>>73836719864 > Odyssey > Sunshine > Galaxy > 3DLandNever played 3D World or Galaxy 2. I'd probably like Galaxy 2. I'd probably enjoy galaxy 1 more on an emulator than i did on the wii, waggle is retarded.3D land is a real stinker, I would unironically rate that game a 4/10 because of its abysmal controls.
>>738368243It's the best open format game because levels aren't too big, and has the perfect amount of collectables. Odyssey controls real good, but levels can often be too large and have far too many collectables within that level that makes completion really annoying to aim for. Mario 64 is quick, concise and generally controls very well outside of the vanilla camera.
Movement:Odyssey > 64 > Sunshine > Galaxies > 3DsLevel design:Galaxy 2 > 64 > 3D World > Sunshine > Galaxy > Odyssey >> 3D LandIt's really hard to rank because the drastic sandbox/linearity platform split between half the titles. It's much more like two genres in one.

>>738368294>the fact that's more like a 2D mario structure wise in that you have to beat linear instead of the more open formats of 64 and Sunshine.I like that about Galaxy though, in fact 3D World is my favourite 3D Mario because it feels like a 2D Mario translated into 3D. I know most people feel the opposite but I just feel like the pure platforming design plays better than the open stage collectathon stuff, and imo the only real reason 3D World isn't celebrated like the others is because it lacks the spectacle and set design of the rest of the 3D games. Galaxy is not quite the direct adaptation of 2D Mario that 3D World is but it is closer to being a pure platformer game than 64/Sunshine/Odyssey, and it also has the spectacle and set design, so I think that's why it resonates with a lot of people. it's just a matter of preference though, I know a lot of people prefer the open stage collectathon design. it's just never really resonated with me.
64 > 3D world >>> sunshine >>>odyssey >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Galaxy > galaxy 2 > 3D land
>>738367198Out of the games i've played recently:64 > Bowser's Fury > 3D World > SunshineIf I was ranking this by SOVL Sunshine would be the top.
>>738368934I prefer the open stage collectathons but that's because I just don't find 2D Mario very engaging for the most part. When it comes to 2D platformers I've always preferred DK and Classicvania over Mario to give you an idea of my tastes. I understand that they are very well made, but they're also generally balanced around being easier and more family friendly, especially the later games. The "newest" 2D Mario I've had fun with has to be SMB3 for reference, and I've played basically all of them except for some of the later NSMB games, and I didn't beat Wonder either. So getting a collectathon but with the polish of first party Nintendo has always been quite the draw for me personally. Rare/Insomniac made good collectathons, but they never controlled as well as Mario has in a 3D environment.
>>738367887>If you guys want a good breakdown of why the Galaxy games suck, check out Barry Kramer's video on it on YouTube.That video is extremely disingenuous on all its points and falls apart pretty easily. I'd go into why but it's not really worth the effort. Just look at the newer comments on the video and you'll see some autists who already tore it apart.
>>738367198My favorites are Galaxy 1/2 and 3D World. 64 is fine. 3D Land is ok for a handheld game but idk how I'd feel about it now. Sunshine and Odyssey are awful.
>>738367198Sunshine > 3DW > 64 > Galaxy 1 > Galaxy 2 > Odyssey
>>738370208And honestly, Odyssey is the only one of these games that I detest.
3D World > Galaxy 2 > Odyssey > Galaxy > 64 > SunshineIts been too long since I played 3D Land so Idk where I would put it
>>738370359If people are counting Bowsers Fury I would put it at the bottom, Bowser interrumpting you is really annoying
>>738367198jesus fucking christ why do you fuckers like 3d world so much. its a shittier 3d land.
