So here is the first part of the Mario showcase, this will be in 4 parts, I will do each one individually in order to sync in the great Nintendo/Mario goodness since we are already done with the great Sega/Sonic sections. Here we go
NES
Super Mario Bros. - This was the first Nintendo game I ever played as it came with the NES system in 1985. Like I said before when the topic started I got My NES for Christmas from My Parents. I played this so much! This isn't the first time I played a game with Mario in it however as My Mom got Me Donkey Kong for her Commodore 64 system a while before that and no, it WASN'T a disk, it was a CARTRIDGE
Anyway I just love the classic scenery, underground and night time maps!

HONORABLE MENTION
Duck Hunt - Not a Mario game but was a duel cartridge with SMB. My big Cousin Brian (who was never really fun and really a jerk to put it mildly) when he played it he always wanted to shoot the dog
I don't like hunting and never will but as a kid I thought the game was fun, you could also shoot clay pigeons as well.

Super Mario Bros. 2 - Ah, superb in 1988. This is one of My favorite Mario titles of all, in fact it comes extremely close to tying My fave which I will get to in the next segment. I loved how different it was and IMO it just had a great feeling and coolness to it. I love everything about it, so classic and IMO it's just not one of the greatest Mario games but games in general ever made

Super Mario Bros. 3 - Oh here it is from 1990, this is more like the original and we were talking about The Wizard movie and in My original topic, this was huge to Me and I couldn't wait till the release of the game itself! I loved the idea of Bowser's kids & the Boo ghosts too!

Punch-Out!! - Not a Mario game. I played the original one with Mike Tyson but wasn't in time to own it but My Mom got Me updated version with Mr. Dream for Me for Christmas in 1990. I am entering this because Mario is actually the REFEREE and he shows up in EVERY BOUT so I never considered this to "just a cameo" despite he is hardly credited with the this grand boxing game

SUPER BONUS!!!
GAME BOY!
Super Mario Land - This came with My game Boy in 1989, I was amazed how similar it was like the NES version yet so different. It is really fun an din fact just as fun as the console games
