Two iconic game monikers. Whom helped launch the game console Nintendo to international domain. Mario and all incarnations with Mario ( Super Mario in title, not Donkey Kong series, were Mario debuted). Zelda and all series with Zelda in title. Mario was first but Zelda was the brain child of the creator Shigeru Miyamoto, so he would perhaps choose Zelda. Both are iconic gameseries. Mario singelhandidly wrote the rules for platform games and every platform game owes it to Super Mario Bros. But the expansive and expoloratory nature of Zelda is aweinspiring as well. So whoch one is it you like most? -------------

Generally I’m not a big gamer, but I’m a big-time Zelda admirer. I love the storytelling and gameplay. I still don’t have Breath of the Wild as I’ve been wondering if I should just get the Wii U version, or invest in a Switch. I hadn’t had my Wii for many years when they came out with the Wii U. My first Zelda game was Spirit Tracks for my daughter’s DS, and it hooked me (then got Phantom Hourglass). I basically got the Wii because my children and I wanted Twilight Princess and I got the Zelda edition of the Wii U that came with Windwaker. I got Skyward Sword the day that it hit the stores. I played earlier games like Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask using an emulator for my old tower computer. My son plays some Mario games, but I haven’t really got into it. I love the cinematic nature of various Zelda games, and the ways one explores the worlds. Brilliant. It’s got some of the beauty and mystery of games like Myst (my favourite game series until discovering Zelda) while being more action oriented. ------------- Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I observed before. It can be much like that with music for me; immersed in experiencing the moment. |

Zelda. Love this series. I still have the cartridge of A Link to the Past for the SNES,one of my favorite 16-bit games. ------------- Two random guys agreed to shake hands. Just Because. They felt like it, you know. It was an agreement of sorts...a random agreement. |

| Zelda definitely. Seeing TV commercials for the original Legend of Zelda is what made me want to go out and buy a NES. |

Both are equally as much fun IMHO. However, the game I play the most is Super Mario Land 2. -------------

The Zelda games were closer to my heart, although that heart was shattered when my Wii broke and all my progress on Skyward Sword was erased. Haven't been able to bring myself to love again. ------------- https://dreamwindow.bandcamp.com/releases" rel="nofollow - My Music

Actually surprised Zelda isn't winning by a landslide. Mario is fun and I love it, but Zelda is so much more involving. Obviously, I voted Zelda.

I thought Zelda would slay the competition myself. It's such an incredibly immersive game series, and is really artistic.
Speaking of Zelda TV commercials. I love this: |
