    Mario for me, I was a nintendo kid, never had a mega drive. Also mario is still going strong and I'm enjoying his latest adventures, whereas I can't say that for sonic....

    gotta be mario. i still remember the hours of enjoyment i got from super mario bros on the nintendo.

    it has to be mario!!!! I was brought up on nitendo games and mario was the best platformer ever. Sonic was just an imitation that rellied on speed rather than playability. whoever heard of a hedgehog with attitude ppfff. everyone knows you dont mess with a fat italian plumber


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 464 ✭✭pugwall


    Sonic all the way - a funky blue hedgehog:D

    I spent hours playing sonic on my sega master system. I then progressed on to the mega drive.

    The only mario game I ever liked was mario cart.

    It's got to be mario. Sonic was always playing second fiddle to him. It was mario that showed people how to do 2D and 3D games properly. Also a mario game has lots of challenge and loads of levels. I've beaten every sonic game I've played on my first go.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 760 ✭✭✭BoobeR


    Sonic had to be the more addictive and less childish (and not to mention less fat hehe :D) than mario, so sonic 100%

    Eeeets meee, Maaaaarrreeeeooo!

    Oh please liek,

    Mario 3 clearly took Sonic 1-4 out around the back of the shed and rammed a rake up its arse while screeching in Italian at his sink.

    Plus I never liked Sonic anyway. Blue haired bastid. And the Mario cartoon was better than the Sonic cartoon. And Mario has a better name. And a better nationality. And s0nic is teh faGg£|-|.

    Biased? Clearly not. (Mario for President)

    Mario looks like Ron Jeromy. How can he not be superior?

    Although Sonic IS spikier... no... Mario is the winner. Voting over. Mario wins.

    He fills fat geeky gamers with the hope that some day they might get to bone some one as fine as princess peach/daisy.

    I was an Amiga man during the peak of the Sonic vs Mario wars, but I always preferred Sonic. It's the hair seee..

    Oh yeah... the cartoons
    the mario one was better actually and in the sonic one they just ate chilli dogs (maybe a metaphor for sonics homosexuality) and tails sounded like a girl....but yoshi in the mario cartoons was one of the most homosexual characters ever i hated him so much.....
    I remember there was a second cooler sonic show though twas alot darker....
    Oh and remember the live action mario film!???
    That was alright....i think!?

    it has 2 be mario the plump italien


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,918 ✭✭✭Deadwing


    *Cue Mario bros. theme tune*
    Shake your arms, from side to side, c'mon its time to go, DO THE MARIO!!
    Gotta love those wop plumbers..*L* Apart from when he was portrayed by Bob Hoskins..*shudder*


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 451 ✭✭Zukustious


    It has to mario no question! It involved so much more skill y'know? With sonic it was all you get hit, you lose rings, you pick 'em up again no problem. With mario, the only way to survive in that freaky world of giant turtles and dancing cactuses, was to constantly obtain a supply of magic mushrooms. Oh the powers they gave! Bigness, extra life, and so on. Then there was that plant that let you shoot fire from your hands!

    Who couldn't love mario?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 295 ✭✭Tails


    Mario all the way. Also i think that sonic didnt make the transition into 3d all that well.
    (hedgehog on crack,hehe thats a funny thought!:D )


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 124 ✭✭neohoki


    Your name is tails and your voting for mario....how ironzical....

    I can't believe mario is winning,damn italian immigints(you heard me immigints) first they steal our jobs then our women and now our polls!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,202 ✭✭✭Swifty


    MegaDrive was the first console I had so I liked Sonic. I will agree that the recent sonic games are shoite, though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,698 ✭✭✭garthv


    sonic is the man!,
    well better than mario anyday
    he'd kick mario and luigi's ass


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 134 ✭✭Dawg


    Its gotta be Mario..
    You could just rent a Sonic game, beat it and drop it back later that day.
    Mario games are quality and value, sonic games are dead.

    Mario Kart. Best racing game ever.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,681 ✭✭✭Johnny_the_fox


    mario - the mans a legend


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,455 ✭✭✭weemcd


    the mario movie was ****. i think you like the game for the console you first got, i got a megadrive. The sonic cartoons were good, and the darker one was brilliant but i only seen it 5 times. Also i got the comics they were brilliant, there was no mario comics!!!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 124 ✭✭neohoki


    ohh yeh... i got sonic comics too they ruled....
    Damn that evil super sonic!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,590 ✭✭✭lordsippa


    ACTUALLY there were 2 (maybe more but two i've read) Mario comics. And they were MUCH better than Sonic The Comic. SO BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

    The first one involved this store clerk getting obsessed with his game boy and the end boss of the GB Mario game controlling his mind and breaking free. so Mario breaks free and it all takes place in a mall. It's just cool.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 310 ✭✭public_enemy


    mario is better... because...
