I like Super Mario Bros. 2 the best. Yeah, I know what I said.

From those two though, 3 is the better one. The original conveys more of a sense of nostolgia though.

I really don't like SMB3. I've spent a lot of time playing it over the years, but I don't like all the suits and whatnot. SMB any day for me. :D

Super Mario Bros 3 by far. It basically took everything good about SMB, and added to it.

I loved 2. I thought they got better with each sequel. Even though 2 was entirely different.

It's really a toss up, but I find myself going back to the first game more, so I'm going with that. But when we're talking about two of the best platformers of all time, there's no point in choosing.

The original. I like the worlds much better and it just seems somewhat faster paced.

I like 3 better, it introduced so many elements that are now standards of the platformer and it was just plain fun to play.

The original still holds up incredibly well today, but I'll still give SMB3 the advantage

i guess the first one deserves more credit; but i can't play it anymore after i played 3. everythings just 100 times better in 3 and the controls in 1 just seem poor by comparison imo

I like SMB3 better, because of the items and stuff. SMB was good as well.

SMB3 by far. It set the standard (along with a few other games such as megaman) for platformers from then on. It had very original worlds, tons of items, tons of enemies, great music, brilliant level design, it was really just a flawless game.

3 is the best of those 2... I think the 2nd is my favorite though.

I just wish they would have left out the warp whistles.

SMB3, only because it came out later and had the opportunity to perfect what was done in SMB.

Yeah out of those two, I am going to have to go with 3 without hesitation.

With that though, it isn't my favorite Mario game. I got SMW, SM2, SM3, SMB

Level of difficulty of a game sometimes affects my enjoyment of that game. - I found SMB3 too difficult in some of the levels.

Perhaps it was the basic movement of Mario that was changed in 3 that I just didn't like - the time it took to stop a running Mario, and the extra "floaty" jumping overall.

Overall, I enjoyed and still enjoy playing SMB over SMB 3.

I liked Super Mario Bros 3 the best, but Super Mario World was better than both of them IMO.
