Well I played the original Mario on an Arcade machine in Anaheim, LA, so that was pretty memorable. Aside that it was Super Mario 64 and Mario Galaxy.

I think the title is wrong in a way. Memorable, or the best? The best I think really is Galaxy but I have no idea if that's just because I have played it recently.

No, that was like the first time I played Mario (that I remember), when I was 9 and it was at the bottom of the hotel and it cost me 1 quarter. I still remember putting the dollar bill into the machine to get 4 x quarters, so that is obviously quite memorable. I was still playing Commodore 64 and Amiga back then.

I've never seen a Mario Arcade machine game here.

Yeah I go right back to the old arcade Mario as well, as for best Mario game it's a hard choice between Super Mario Bros 3 on the NES and Mario 64. I haven't played Mario Galaxy yet

Super Mario Bros. is the best, easily.

As great as mario 64 is and Galaxy will be, none of them, even video games itself, could exist if it wasn't for the tubby plumber in an 8-bit world starting it all.

It's hard to choose between Mario 64 and Mario Galaxy to, I am pretty much in the middle really as I remember I had so much fun 10 years ago with SM64 but I think I am having the same amount of fun I did back then now with SMG and I am 10 years older, so that has to say something. I have lost interest in games over the years. If they bring out Monkey Island 5, that is another game I will have to finish.

I really don't have a personal preference. I love them all.

I remember reading quite a lot of websites that mostly said that Super Mario Brothers 3 for the NES was regarded as one of the most popular out of all the Mario brothers games.

It's just the original Mario from what I remember. Maybe it was made a little different for the arcade, I'm not sure. That was 18 years ago. Still remember the sounds!

Phats pic just reminded me of something..... Even though it's the Bee costume - I got the spring last night on SMG, I hate it! lol. You got that yet Phat?

Ouch, that's harsh for Mario 64. How could you not like it? Especially since it was the first true 3D mario.

They are all great games !
The one that stands out for me is Super Mario 3
At the time it was released it blew all other Nes titles apart and was well ahead of its time!
I remember back in the day at Myer in the City Nintendo had about 15 TV's setup with different Nes games but the line to try SM3 was massive!

While you play that I will play Galaxy and Mario/Sonic Olympics - I don't really recommend Mario/Sonic Olympics btw, kinda sucks. Not what I was expecting anyway.

Im 22. Loved mario in 2d, but when it went into 3d i thought it lost most of its charm. In my opinion the pacing of the game felt a lot slower and the controls were clunky and it just wasnt as fun. It was definately an impressive pioneer for 3d games, but snes/nes mario games were heaps better i reckon.

Haha. I'm not having a go at you. I was just surprised. It's not that often you come across someone who doesn't like that game.

Fair enough. I expected you to be older than I in that way, I was 15 (Sorry I forgot, I wasn't 17 then, so 12 years ago) and couldn't wait to get home to SM64. I liked SNES Mario Kart better that both N64 and GC versions because at the time my friends and I were having comps and drinking passion pop on Saturdays afternoons.
