Sonic or Mario

[Erdrick Holmes]

Who do you like better?

[Rye]

Mario by far. Even though I'm not a complete Nintendo Nerd, he has a good live movie and games that I enjoy. I never got into Sonic games too much.

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

If you asked me around 2001 or prior to that, I might have said Sonic, but that whole franchise has become profoundly stupid in years since.

[Lindy]

Look, there have been seven or eight Mario Party games, how can you not say the same about him?

They're BOTH dumb.

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

I was only speaking in context of the main games--you know, the ones that are intended to count.

[Lindy]

Ok, tell me Super Mario Sunshine wasn't stupid and maintain a straight face, ON THE INTERNET.

[Rye]

Sunshine was stupid. Mario 64 was great though. And as much as I hate to admit it, Mario Tennis was fun.

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

I love Sunshine. It's right up there with 64.

[Doomie]

Mario Tennis rocked. <3 And so did Mario Kart, and the original Mario Brothers. Mario 4tw.

[Rengori]

SONIC OWNS! His games go at amuch faster pace, and I like going at a fast pace, hence why I don't like FFVI nearly as much.

[KentaRawr!]

Well, I personally like Mario Games more. Even if in Super Mario World, the Goombas looked like Tomatos. (Seriously. I called them Tomato Monsters.)

[Black Mage]

I'm a bigger Mario fan than Sonic. When I was younger, I was a big Nintendo only advocate, which led to me never buying a Sega system. Though, I had always enjoyed the Sonic series when I could play the games.

I grew out of that well before the Dreamcast, and PSX, but I still enjoy the Mario games much more.

And I also loved Sunshine.

[Chris]

I prefer Mario. Sonic? Come on, a blue fast running hedgehog? I don't think so.

[Erdrick Holmes]

Thats what I also loved about Sonic, the speed. I justl ove games with a huge adreanline rush of speed. Also the music in the Sonic games were catchy as hell, to this day I still hum the music on Green Hill Zone. The characters and the backstory ranged from mediocre to awesome. Mario's cool too but he just doesn't have as much speed and attitude as Sonic did.

[Agent Proto]

Mario doesn't need speed. His games are more fun to play. Sonic's also cool, but I prefer playing Mario over Sonic games.

[here for a limited time]

sonic is cool, but mario is the better game

[Dreddz]

I dont like either, but if I had to pick one it would be mario

[spartancode117]

MARIO!!

[XxSephirothxX]

I grew up on Sonic, I enjoyed the 3D games to an extent, and will always love the classics. I loved the speed and the gameplay. But the Mario series, at least with the NES and through the N64, consisted of better quality games. They're still some of the best, if not the best, platformers ever made. I just happen to really suck at them. :p

[Yuffie514]

Mario, all b/c he is kewl and red oh, and red is superior to blue.

[Dr.K]

Sonic, but both game series' are LONG past their prime if you actually care about any of the new games.

[auronfan1]

mario owns sonic

[DJZen]

Mario but only because I have more childhood memories of Mario. Sonic has always been a great series as well. I still need to get Sonic Adventure for my DC, I just feel like my collection will always be lacking without it. Mario Sunshine was Mario 64 with a water gun. Meaning it was a perfectly good game. I don't like Mario Party though. Mario's Parties creep me out.

[Lord Chainsaw]

I much prefer Mario. He doesn't need to be fast, extreme, and cool to cover up the fact that his games suck. Nor do his games suck.

I liked Sonic Adventure 2 though. That's pretty much the one Sonic game I can stand.

[SomethingBig]

I don't know where all this Sunshine hate's coming from, because I loved it.

Are we talking about the two characters in a fight? Or the game series? If fight, Sonic. If series, Mario. I've been with Mario since I was 2 and he has never let me down. Although the Genesis Sonic games were amazing, Mario 64 paved the way for 3D worlds and was one of the best games ever created.

[MAS82587]

sonic by far. i dont even understand why people like a fat italian plumber who has an annying voice.

[Rye]

Because he makes me pasta and rides a giant green dinosaur,

[ZeZipster]

Mario. But strictly SNES generation Mario. Sonic was always... Yoshiless.

[Rye]

A real challenge to chose between is Yoshi and Tails. I like them both. I'd have to go with Yoshi though. It's not all wimpy like Tails is (and I noticed that from one episode of Sonic) and it can fly and carry a rider. :)

[black orb]

>>> Luigi.

[Aphelion]

Mario. Who else has that "pizzaiolo" accent besides the Mario Bros.? :D

[Del Murder]

Got to stick with my fellow paisan.

[Raistlin]

I have to say Mario. Though I love Sonic.

[Mr. Graves]

Gotta go with Mario here. Sonic's classic games for the Genesis were really quite fun, but I admit I've not played any of the most recent Sonic games. And I grew up on Nintendo more than Sega growing up, so that also influences my vote, no doubt. :monster:

Or, should that be :goomba:

[Lionx]

Mario, because to me while Sonic was fun, it wasnt as challeging as a Mario game where i STILL remember those retard water stages that go up and down in Mario 3. Sunshine was ok, could be better but its ok for the most part. Platformers rule.

Sonic presently isnt that good...seems to be losing speed. However the older games were pretty fun too, but it never seemed to put as much an impact on me as Mario did.

But then if you really wanna know its Tails and Klonoa D:

[DMKA]

Mario but only because I have more childhood memories of Mario.
Agreed, though I hated all of them after Super Nintendo...but then, I never liked the Sonic games half as much...probably because I didn't have a Sega Genesis until like after 3 years of having an SNES.

[Sephex]

I like Sonic, but I have enjoyed the Mario series a lot more as a whole.

And for the record, Sunshine kicked some ass.

[Maxico]

Sonic easily (although I don't count any of the 3D games as being part of the series)

Although that may be a bit biased because Sonic (for mastersystem) was my very first game and I only ever owned a NES. But even to this day I can go back and enjoy them as much as I did back then.

As for Mario, I just don't like it. After I went though my big Sonic revival stage I played Super Mario World for SNES and I just couldn't play through it. It was just seemed slow, clunky and a little too surreal for my tastes.

[DK]

Guess. :D

[Rengori]

Guess. :D
Mario!

[Doomie]

Guess. :D
Mario!

I was gonna say Proto, but whatever.

[Agent Proto]

how about Proto Man? :D

[Rengori]

Which one, Proto Man in the original series or Protoman.EXE?

[Cruise Control]

Sonic is cooler, but his games suck really bad. And he doesn't have a water jet-pack thingy.

[Maxico]

If you are talking about anything made after Genisis/Megadrive (especialy the 3D games) then I agree.

If you are talking about the original 2D series then I'm afraid you must die.

[DK]

Proto is my choice, he's hot. <33

[Cloud Lionheart]

Lets set a scene here,
Mario,
"Hello lugi, have u fixed da toilet ma man ya"
Sonic,
Zooooms in grabbing rings kicking robots butts saying somethimg like " shocking!" as they blew to smitherines around him...
Sonic wins by far... he dosent make pizza for a livin, hes not fat and he dusent wear blue and red overals..... hes just natrualy got blue skin.... and red sneakers!!!

[Craig]

Well, I clicked Sonic. But in reading through I've changed my mind to Mario. Both of the franchises were in their prime a few years back.

Back then, I got so much more fun out of Mario 3, and Super Mario. I also completely worshipped Yoshi's Island.

I liked the Sonic games, but really only played 1 and 2. I briefly played Sonic and Knuckles, but never tried 3.

[Rengori]

Sonic wins by far... he dosent make pizza for a livin, hes not fat and he dusent wear blue and red overals..... hes just natrualy got blue skin.... and red sneakers!!!
Mario's a plumber.

[tailz]

forgive me mario

sonic owns but i only vote for him for 1 game that stands out in all mario and sonic games


sonic adventure 2

it was a great game with great music like escape from the city

[DarkLord]

All you Mario Loveers who say a fast blue hedgehog is stupid. What a bout a Plumber who wears blue and red overalls, can jump stupidly high for anyone let alone a fat plumber. And he's an Italian who lives in america, why not stay home (And make our lives a hell of a lot better). He sux willy!

[DynasticJam]

Mario all the way. Okay Sonic is a cool dude, and Mario is a plummer, but let's face it, Sonic is very repetative, you don't have to do much, just let Sonic do all the running and that's it. Mario is more of a challenge, and it's got more to it. Mario wins!

[Maxico]

If you're talking about the advance games or the 3D games I agree.

However, if you're talking about the Mega Drive/Genesis (or god forbid Sonic CD) then you are a fool.

[Slothy]

As far as the games go, Mario wins it. As far as the individual characters are concerned, Sonic is cooler. Fast is fun what can I say.

And for the record, Sunshine was fun, but it wasn't as good as Mario 64. I mean, heck, Mario 64 had more levels and more variety than Sunshine, and I didn't like losing the long jump for that slow and rather boring hover feature. Sunshine was also a little too linear if you ask me. Fun none the less, but a definite step back for the series.

[Erdrick Holmes]

Mario's way overrated, Sonic is underrated. Period!

Did I make this thread? Wow.

[bipper]

If you asked me around 2001 or prior to that, I might have said Sonic, but that whole franchise has become profoundly stupid in years since.

I voted sonic, as I don't even count anything post dreamcast as sonic.

I think as far as which character is the cooles: Sonic Wins

[crono_logical]

:luigi: :mario:

Only thing I liked about Sonic was the set of 4 novels featuring him I read like over a decade over :p

[Neco Arc]

argh who to choose, i like them both... eh...ill go with sonic but only old school sonic

[Russielloyd]

Sonic hand down,

Sonic fast, hes cool. Mario is just boring, he cant go fast because he had to lug around all that weight.
Though Sonic Heroes was a deffinate let down, there going to make up for it with the "Shadow The Hedghog" game.

There even a flash movie where Sonic kicks marios ass.

Guess who owns nintendo now bitch!? Sonic does! yeah baby!!

[Ultima Shadow]

Sonic is cooler, but his games suck really bad. And he doesn't have a water jet-pack thingy.If you think Sonic 3 goes under the category of "sucky games" you've got an absolutely horrible taste in video games. :greenie:

Also, Mario's better off without that "water jet-pack thingy".



Oh, and my vote goes to Mario, by the way. Even though Sonic 3 once was my fav game in the entire world, it's still beaten by SMRPG and SM64. And the Mario games in general are just more fun than the Sonic games.

[ThroneofDravaris]

Sonic, obviously.

[Destai]

I prefer Mario. Sonic? Come on, a blue fast running hedgehog? I don't think so.
Yeah, fat,hairy, italian plumbers all the way!

[Project G]

Sonic is better, Mario reminds me of my ex boss, a stupid fat fake itallian

[crashNUMBERS]

Mario beats Sonic by an two inches...

[Russielloyd]

Mario beats Sonic by an two inches...

I see your talking about the size of marios waist, where your wrong its more like 20 inches.

[Project G]

MARIO IS A COMMUNIST!!!!

[crashNUMBERS]

I see your talking about the size of marios waist,
LOL!!!!

[RSL]

I've never played a Sonic game so I voted Mario.

[Pouring Rain]

Mario of course! I do like Sonic's show and Sonic Heroes, though. But Mario all over. He has better characters. Daisy is <3

[Rase]

Well, since I royally suck at all Sonic games, and thus don't like them, I'm-a gonna go with :mario:.

[Reine]

I prefer Sonic. I grew up on Sega, and absolutely loved Sonic 1 and 2. Never got to play the others, and the Mario games, I never got to actually play.

But yeah, Sonic. The speed was crazy! I remember that feeling when I finally beat Sonic 1 myself. After seeing mums partner beat it, and me still struggling somewhere before the Labyrinth area, you can imagine how I felt on FINALLY beating the game! It was the first game I ever beat if I remember correctly.
