Talk:List of Mario video games by year

message: After each game there was a description, the function of this description was never constant; I feel the best is to describe his role in the game as to explain how and where he appears.
The new format is:
Game Name (system(s)) Appearance Description
Or
Game Name (system(s)) – Region Information - Appearance Description

message: I'm not entirely sure that Super Smash Bros. is a spinoff of the Mario series. It's true that the Mario series has the greatest representation in the Smash Bros. games, but isn't that just because of popularity? The only link I can see with the Mario series is the controls being simple for a multiplayer game. Toomai Glittershine 12:26, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Sure. We can vote whether it says as part of the Mario series or not. I'll just mention that a "no preference" vote owuld keep it that way it is. Toomai Glittershine 13:12, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

text: That still doesn't make it a "Mario" game. Otherwise, games like Sega Tennis would be considered a "Sonic" game when it's not. Magiciandude (talk) 16:43, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: List seems incomplete

message: It's listed under both 2006 and TBA. If it's going to be released this year, then it's not TBA. It's it is unknown when it will be released, then it's TBA and the 2006 part is fancruft. Which is it? -- 69.233.222.102 03:51, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Every search I do ends up the same. The game doesn't have a release date yet. So, it's TBA. -- Jelly Soup 05:59, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Why is Donkey Kong listed as a spin-off? 

message: Should virtual console releases for the wii really be here, it is a VIRTUAL console, and it seems that so many of these games will just be here twice or three times. putting these is redundant, but i will not remove because i don't know if i am alone in this, but i'm putting in my two cents.  --72.138.175.46 
:No they should not be removed, because they are official releases, and they should be treated as the Super Famicom Satellaview, because games that are released for the VIRTUAL console can be "new" in that they may have been previously unreleased.  --Rlk89 00:56, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: They are official releases, but they are not new releases, I understand documenting where a game was release and it differs from the previous version in some way, but Nintendo has stated that they are the exact same roms as what appeared on the consoles years ago. If they were different in some way, I would understand the need for new entries. With that said, I would like to suggest a couple possibilities, a general link to the virtual console games list, or, adding a note beside game entries where the game was released for the virtual console in the exact same form as the previous, which would include the year the virtual console version was released, and possibly have it link to the virtual console games list. --FiveIron 06:36, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: They are not new releases, but they are official releases, official releases of a game that includes mario should simply be listed as official releases of a game that includes mario, regardless of new content or not.  --Rlk89 23:40, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Virtual Console 

message: I'm not sure about having them. They really seem more like spin-offs of the Wario Land franchise which gets a mention below the list than spin-offs of the Mario franchise. True, there are 9-Volt microgames but they feature more games than just Mario so you could use the same logic to put WarioWare on the Zelda games. I think I'm going to remove it if nobody disagrees. 24.159.39.11 18:56, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

message: Every item in the very long bulleted list says "release" after the area in which is was released.  Couldn't we get rid of the word "release" on after item and just have it say say "Super Mario Bros. - North America", or whatever?  Useight 06:04, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

message: I've earned five lines on level nine of each of the three tetris games on NES and I haven't seen mario, nor do any of the sprites on the ROMs seem to look like him...

message: With the announcement of Captain Rainbow it appears that the Golfer from Golf is not referred to as Mario.
So saying that Mario is still the playable character of Golf is incorrect. We can leave in that he resembles him though. (Angry Sun)

thread_title: Future Games

message: I was thinking that the games in the list could be formatted in the following way:
Game Name - "Regions"
E.g. under 1996 for Super Mario 64 we could have:
Super Mario 64 - North America and Japan
and then under 1997:
Super Mario 64 - Europe and Australia (or PAL regions)
Either that, or we could have seperate articles to show a list of Mario games by year in each of the regions seperately?--The Ultimate Koopa (talk) 22:05, 10 April 2010 (UTC)
