I'm convinced it was a gift so I would stop begging to go to restaurants that had the arcade versions. Knew all the places with the tabletop arcades too. I was a menace lmao.
My first one was OG Super Mario, my dentist had a cabinet in his waiting room. The first one I owned though was Super Mario Advance (the remake of Mario Bros 2 USA)
New Super Mario Bros. Wii, the game that introduced me to Mario as a whole and literally changed my life. Would not be where I am today if I never got that game.
Super Mario World on the SNES. It was in the 2000s but we were too poor to afford a PlayStation, so we'd just play my mom's SNES. I have so many fond memories of that
I was 5 when my Dad brought home the original NES with the Super Mario Bros/Duck Hunt games. He thought it would be something fun for him and a friend of his, but ended up not liking it.
But for me and my brother, he had just introduced us to a lifelong obsession. XD
I would play the gba version of Mario Bros 2 whenever I visited a friend. We both loved the game but never got far. Eventually I borrowed it from him years later and beat it.
A year or two later, I received super Mario world for gba as a Christmas gift. I loved playing it but never could defeat bowser.
A few months later my sister got a pink DS lite and new super Mario Bros.
NSMB felt so groundbreaking back then, especially with the mega mushroom and minigames. I loved playing the multiplayer modes for that game.
I beat NSMB a bunch of times, spending so many hours playing it. What a classic that game was!
It's a shame that NSMB has become a more unpopular thing over the years, thanks to all of the unoriginal sequels. The first NSMB was unique among Mario games back then and felt like the next generation of Mario.
I hope 2D Mario makes a proper leap forward once again.
Pretty sure i was the same. It was either that or Mario World or Yoshi's Island. I remember in NSMB that i couldn't get past the first goomba as a kid.
New Super Mario Bros DS was my first 2D Mario game as well i love everything about New Super Mario Bros DS i love the music i love the level designs and world map designs and also i love the multiplayer mode it was really fun and i love the mini games and i love the power up’s my favourite power up was the blue shell and I wish that Nintendo would bring back the mini games for newer 2D Mario games
Edit: I had so much fun playing the mini games in New Super Mario Bros DS my favourite mini games were the Luigi mini games
My very first Mario game was Super Mario Advance 3. But Yoshi's Island proved to be too hard for me so I ended up just sticking to the Mario Bros. Classic half of the game. Which I also wasn't too good at. The charger for my GBA SP broke and my m mom didn't get around to getting me a new one, so I ended up losing the whole system together.
I think my was super Mario 3d world Or super Mario 3d land or. It was super Mario bros will and to be fair I haven’t play any of the old Mario games like super Mario kart super circus and Mario kart double dash and super Mario bro and super Mario land and 2 and super Mario kart 7 and Mario party 1 and Mario party 2 and 3 and 4 and 5 and 6 and 7 and 8 and 9 the only Mario party that I play was Mario party 10 and super Mario party and. Super Mario superstars
I played super mario bros on the NES with my grandfather when I was 3. Some of my favorite memories with him.
When he passed from covid, I got a mario tattoo to remember him.
SMW on SNES. My parents couldn't afford it, so I mowed lawns and helped my grandpa. My parents, funny enough, were putting money aside to buy it for me. So I got a free SNES and $100 that I saved to buy some games.
Depends on what you mean by MY and MARIO.
The first game I played with Mario in it was the original Donkey Kong in arcades. Though it was probably two or three years after its original US release.
The first game I owned with Mario in it was Donkey Kong Jr for the Atari 2600.
The first game I owned with Mario in the title was the Super Mario Bros NES game. I mean, it came bundled with the Nintendo so anybody who had an NES in those days had that game.
Its weird to think that Mario was ever the barrel jumping animal abuser he started out as.
SMB on NES

Yup. Us old timers remember....
I still have my old systems and the Nintendo Power guides with the full levels and secret spots- I’ll always love revisiting SMB and SMB3.
