Title: Mario or Zelda?
Post by: marvelvscapcom2 on April 26, 2016, 10:08:04 pm: If you had to do away with all Mario games or all Legend of Zelda games forever and never play them again. Which would you keep and which would you get rid of? This Includes games like Hyrule Warriors. Games that have both characters such as smash bros will still remain but the character you chose to get rid of will not be playable in the game.

Post by: kamikazekeeg on April 26, 2016, 10:18:34 pm: Mario has a lot more games, but I think I'll keep Zelda. I just prefer open world exploration more. If Mario had kept that up after Sunshine and 64, I might consider saying otherwise lol

Post by: retrogemcollector on April 26, 2016, 10:19:36 pm: Mario as well. I've never been able to fully beat a Zelda game, for me it get boring very fast. But Mario games (Platformers) have a near infinite re-playability.

Post by: stealthrush on April 26, 2016, 10:56:16 pm: Keep Mario. I was never a fan of Zelda series since I was born 1988 and was more into platform genre as a kid/growing up.

Post by: sloan11 on April 26, 2016, 11:18:23 pm: I would keep mario for the simple fact that mario games are much more fun for multiple players. even the ones that don't have a true 2-player system are great multiplayer games because you can just toss the remote and say "you try". zelda games don't really work that way, although I love them as well.

plus mario games get more wear from me after beating them.. once i beat a zelda game it will be years before i play it again (if ever).

Post by: bikingjahuty on April 27, 2016, 12:48:33 am: I'm going to go with Zelda, just because Ocarina of Time is significantly more fun than any Mario game I've ever played. And that is saying a ton.

One of my favourite series so many great games so much nostalgia but also gameplay wise outstanding. especially the adventure 3d games. mario 64 sunshine galaxy etc. But also the older 2D titles I enjoy.

Zelda games are good but to be honest I've never been a real zelda fan. I never understand the zelda hype by many, I have to say though that the collectibles are really nice but gameplay wise I'll give the win to mario. The zelda games are excellent though I've enjoyed twilight princess, ocarina of time, skyward sword, windwaker and even hyrule warriors so far, the games are definitly enjoyable.

I really like the cast in skyward sword compared to the other zelda games I don't get why that game gets so much hate. Zelda is way better in this game than any other zelda game.

I will miss ganon in smash though one of my favourite characters to play in smash to disrepect bad and good players. So many awesome thing a ganon can do in for glory when one has mastered the triforce of power :p

The cast and story is pretty great in Skyward Sword. The problem it has is they basically removed much of the overworld, Skyloft isn't that interesting of a place, Fi is ridiculously annoying (Especially after we had the best companion with Midna), and of course the motion controls. I beat Skyward Sword, but I never once loved playing with those controls. I'd love for them to HD port it to the NX like with Twilight Princess, removing the motion controls, though I don't think they could lol

Post by: gf78 on April 27, 2016, 11:49:57 am: Easy, bye-bye Zelda. Mario I can pick up and play anytime.

Post by: burningdoom on April 27, 2016, 12:45:02 pm: Both. They're both completely different series, yet both complete masterpieces in their own right. I wouldn't give-up either.

Post by: desocietas on April 27, 2016, 03:00:14 pm: Mario. Mario has spawned so many good things, and I've never really found anything to like with Zelda. Plenty of other RPGs have served me well without Zelda.

Post by: turf on April 27, 2016, 09:48:45 pm: I'll keep Mario if I have to choose.

I haven't played a Zelda game all the way through since Windwaker. They're not bad games, I just don't have time or patience.

I know I already said mario and gave a few reasons... but, in my mind, my knee-jerk response to the question was "Samus, duh"

Post by: telly on April 28, 2016, 09:55:00 am: I feel like Mario too. Not only do you get the main platformers, but also all the other Mario Spin offs (Golf, Kart, Basketball, etc)
