You know Mario and Zelda have a lot in common...

[The Fat Bioware Nerd]

The second Mario Bros. game and the second Legend of Zelda game were radically different from their predecessors. Mario Sunshine and Wind Waker weren't as well received as their N64 counterparts. Twilight Princess and Mario Galaxy were killer apps for the Wii.

[Rostum]

Someone has too much time to think. :p

[Heath]

Yeah, slightly. I wouldn't say those a real links that mean the games have a lot in common :p

[XxSephirothxX]

They're also both developed and published by Nintendo. Crazy world, isn't it?

[Del Murder]

Both series also often involve saving the princess!

[NeoCracker]

And both of them have a lot of very strange Hentai pics people have drawn of them.

Well, everything has that in common. It's kind of scary really :eek:

Hardly the point.

[Shlup]

Also, I love them both. Love! :love:

Mario 1 and Zelda 1 are both vastly different from later games, and both would be considered piles of :skull::skull::skull::skull: if released today. :monster:

I hate cynical people.

[Dolentrean]

I hate cynical people.

I love cynical people, that is why I like it here.

Both charecters have very large noses (at least in the N64 versions)

except super mario bros 2 in the US, was not really super mario bros 2. Super mario bros, the lost levels, is super mario bros 2, and is almost identical to the first super mario bros.

I make note to say super mario bros, because the original mario bros is just that minigame that's in the third super mario bros game... the one with the pipes and the enemies.

Yep, I was going to point that out as well.

As for the GC iterations not being as well-received, well, Nintendo did a lot of things during that era that were well-intentioned but not exactly in tune with what the majority of fans wanted. Though I still love Wind Waker tons.

it's funny, 'cos final fantasy ii (in america!!!) was vastly different from final fantasy i (in america!)

and sadly there the similarities end because the closest that final fantasy ever got to returning to nintendo was final fantasy "x" which was just a demonstration 8)
(but still pretty cool in theory)

[Breine]

They're both male!!

Just kidding :P

[Kanshisha]

you know if placed together, a Christmas tree is formed..

Wasn't there Final Fantasy 3 (In America!)?

[Roto13]

I think she meant the NES.

[rubah]

you can group ff2 and ff3(4/6) together for convenience.

[KentaRawr!]

I think she meant the NES.

FF2 (In America!) was for the SNES.

I'm confused so I'm going to go over in the corner and curl up into a ball.

As much as I don't like to admit it (seeing as how I really like Mario and how much I hate Link's overratedness) it's true. Many of the points I was going to make have already been stated. Besides Mario and Link being the most liked by Nintendo fans and them being the two most recognized Nintendo mascots (I somewhat think Pikachu might be a little more popular than Link though). Shigeru Miyamoto (a Nintendo producer) was also in charge of making them both if I remember correctly. Also Mario and Zelda games seem to be getting the highest game ratings out of all Nintendo game series (Mario spinoff games being an exception since people seem to enjoy hating on).
