Zelda, because well 1. Zelda games are the best 2. Mario has to many games some good some rubbish 3. these days Mario doesn't have much new material apart from sport games and there kinda pointless.

Although Mario Galaxy looks great. :D

I am biased towards Zelda, so that is why I am choosing it.  I love both franchises and respect what both of them have done for the videogame industry.  I chose Zelda because I enjoy that genre more.  I prefer Action/Adventure games over platformers.

If you mean just the main games like Link to the Past, Wind Waker and Twilight Princess Vs Mario Bros, Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Galaxy and none of these sports games, then I'd have to go with a draw, they are all quality games.

Zelda games are magic. Some Mario games are. Then again, most of them aren't.

Almost every single Zelda has been great. Mario has forgettable moments like all those crappy sport spin offs.

However, the Mario fanbase is not as whiny as the Zelda fanbase.

In the end, nothing has been decided.

Metroid is better than both tho.

SMG2 is my favorite game but I love more Zelda games than Mario games, it's a very tough choice.

I think I'm leaning towards Zelda.

Zelda. :D

If SMG2 got multiple 10s, I don't see why Skyward Sword wouldn't get the same result.

It is true, most Zelda games are usually not disappointments, while some Mario games may not be top notch. They're both good though, and I would go with both. :P Although if you gotta choose, you might be able to be more open with Zelda games, while you might have to be a little more selective with Mario games, just a thing to keep in mind. :)

I don't like SMG and camera angles were terrible in M64. Even Mario's best stuff can't compare to Zelda's worst IMO.

On average I think Zelda games are better. But if you made a list of the top 10 Zelda games, and the top 10 Mario games, I think Mario would come out on top.

Well let's see my argument: Mario: Mario has been my childhood hero before I could even read he has a HUGE verity of games. He has very creative games but they sometimes get repetitive. Overall I enjoy his games very much and I was always a huge fan of his video games Zelda: I have only been a fan of the Zelda for a short time. But in that short time I've noticed that the games are some of the best there is. It even includes Zelda: Ocarina of Time which is hands-down the best video game of all time. The series has the best gameplay, soundtrack, and story I have ever seen in my life Zelda wins by a long shot
