Luigi because when my brother and I played SMB for the NES I was always 2nd player so Luigi grew on me.

The man in green: Luigi.
I've been player 2 since I was five, I've adored him in the cartoon, and as the years pass, the man has been with me in my videogaming live for 14 years running.

Luigi is the best. But, I miss his old school outfit. The White Overalls and hat with the green shirt. I don't like his green overalls and hat as much.

His overalls are blue. His shirt and hat are green.
Yoshi, of course. He's been my favorite since Super Mario World.

LUIGI FOREVER
I'm always Luigi when he's a playable character especially in Mario Kart, Smash Bros. and Mario Party.

Ah yes, I was thinking of Super Mario Bros. 2, where his overalls and hat were green. Now, both Mario and Luigi's overalls are blue, and I really don't like it.

Only the game manuel art. In the game his overalls were blue and his shirt and hat were green. The All-Stars and GBA versions also use this color scheme.
The only time in-game that Luigi has ever been those colors is in the All-Stars version of SMB and SMB2 of Japan (on the GBC version his shirt is brown but it's the same basic idea I suppose).
And I too liked the white hat and overalls with green shirt so I'm glad they sorta have that on SSB and Melee but honestly I like the "natural" look with the jean overalls, green shirt and green hat. Though I do have a fondness of the Mario with hats and overalls their color and their shirts blue (like the SMB 2 manual art and the DiC cartoons. They did something similar for SMB the Movie and I really love the sprites in the All-Stars version of SMB.
Yeah... that's me a endless void of SMB knowledge.

After seeing those artwork pictures from Mario Football/Soccer for Gamecube, I have to say Daisy ;). But then when I select her as a character (I was gonna type "play with her" but I felt that might be crossing the line :D), her voice pretty much makes me flinch in horror. So I'll say for now that Bowser is the best, since I'm always fond of the bad-guys.

Not a very good list. I picked Luigi, but there are cooler minor characters.
I adore Birdo, Yoshi, Shy Guys, Professor E. Gadd, and Toad.

E. Gadd and Bowser Jr.
Hands down the funniest characters in all of the games. Gadd should've been in Mario Kart DS.

It's all about Yoshi for me, but of the two brothers I'd probally choose Luigi.

E. Gadd cracks me up. Wario is also an interesting character (and his games are fun), but Waluigi seems totally unnecessary to me.
I would like Bowser Jr. for being one of the more interesing Mario villains if a) his inclusion in Mario Sunshine didn't reduce the story to more "Bowser somehow kidnaps Peach" fodder and b) his existence didn't possibly contradict the existence of the Koopa Kids.

Which brother do I like best? Man is that a tough decision! I love all the Mario characters very much. I grew up with them after all. I did have a period where I was ignorant and disliked them because I liked Sonic too much, but now I'm pretty equal with them (though the Mario games are leagues better than Sonics.) In Mario Bros 2 and most of the other games which let you choose between Mario and Luigi, I normally prefer Luigi just because of his cool jump and in Mario 64 DS his air twirl is very cool. :) In Mario Kart (any version) Toad is my all-time favorite. He knows how to step on the pedal! But like I said, it's very rare for me to dislike Mario characters. The only moments that have stood out are Waluigi (they could have made a better name) and while I did like Paper Mario, I thought they didn't put too much effort into the characters of that title.

1. shy guy
Yeah freakin' right! I used to think Shy Guy was cool too. But then one day, I was playing Mario Party 3, for my N64, and I played one of his Gambling games. The game was who could eat their cake the fastest, a little chomp chomp or a big one 5 times it's size. So, I bet my money on the big one. But then, the big one doesn't even touch his cake! AND THE FREAKIN' LITTLE ONE WINS! Then the Shy Guy started dancing and a mallet fell on my head. As if losing all my money wasn't enough. Then LUIGI WON THE GAME! He was cool in the old-school Mario games, but in games like Party, Tennis, whatever, he becomes a total prick.
"I'm dee best"
YEAH RIGHT, LUIGI! YOU A FREAKIN' LOSER! GO SNIFF SOME COCAINE THEN KILL YOURSELF YOU TALL FREAK!

The Emerald Plumber.
He's taller, he wears green, he can jump higher...
I'm surprised both Daisy and Peach aren't crawling all over him! Heck, if I had to chose to be one Mario character, I'd be him, kill Mario, and get my own video game franchise! Then I'd start to date Peach, get married and have two beautiful children, named Nathaniel and Superfly.
Did I just say all that out loud? Uh...it was my clone. ;)

Like many others, I was frequently player 2 when playing Super Mario Bros. 1 and 3. So, I have to pick Luigi. He may not be the big hero his brother is, but he's a good guy with a good heart. I'm not crazy about him being depicted as a total scaredy-cat though, even though I like Luigi's Mansion. I remember the first time I heard that Super Mario 64 didn't have Luigi in it. I thought "They can't do that". It seemed inconceivable to me that they could make a Mario Bros. game with Mario as a character but without Luigi. Of course, they did title it Super Mario 64 and not Mario Bros. 64, so it wasn't exactly false advertising.

Poor Luigi always gets the short end of the stick. Luigi gets my vote.

Without a doubt Mario. I always pick him on SSBM (well actually black cloaked Dr. Mario) and I was never the one stuck playing as Luigi in all the earlier games.

01-01-2006, 05:47 PM
Of the 2 brothers, I picked Mario, if not just for the Dr. Mario player in SSBM.

I've gotta go with Luigi on this one. Mario is a close second though.

Super Mario Bros 3 cartoon version of Luigi the brains of the bunch and plus he didn't mind getting into action. I liked his solo ep where he and the one of the kings were turned into dogs. I always thought it would be cool if Luigi had white over alls green shirt and hat. Than I would have to say my main man the might mushroom of might Toad ( I hate all those toads thats in the game there is only one). Toad should have been in SMW cartoon.

What Mario Bros. Character Do I Like Best? Toad.
Out of the ones you listed? Luigi.
Seriously, why did you limit the poll to the Mario Bros. alone? What about Bowser? Peach? Toad? Yoshi? Wario? They're all very popular.

No Toad should have been in the game even if it were just during the ending.

I believe he/she knows that. They were just asking why you limited it to just the brothers. Seriously, you should have at least included the other main characters.

i think the whole purpose of him only listing mario and luigi is because he wanted to know who we all liked ONLY out of the brothers, if he wanted to know our fave characters out of ALL the mario bros charaters he would have included them in the poll, the question he was asking is "who is your favorite BROTHER"
anyways, my fave bro is luigi. he had the better moves and design.

I always liked Luigi better, because he's a much better jumper. I always liked the most flexible characters.
...and Shy Guy.

whether u find it boring or not is besides the point, people vary, what you think is boring, is not boring to other people. the point is, he just wanted to know who your fave brother was, but people somehow couldnt understand the meaning of that and listed characters NOT included in the poll, if he wanted to know who your fave character was BESIDES mario and luigi, then he obviously would have included them in the poll but he didnt therefore the question was whos your favorite character out of mario and luigi. the fact that he said character and not brother doesnt change a thing since both mario and luigi, as well as being brothers, are also characters.
Luigi. He's been my favorite since I was a tiny lad, when my brother would make me play as him as he wanted first player. :D

Ah, yes, Mario. Forget Master Chief. Forget Tommy Vercitti. Mario is the man, the leader of the greatest video game franchise in gaming history. I've always liked the Mario character, and I really think he could carry a light-hearted adventure anime where he fights a team of Bowser and Wario in the great Mushroom Kindgom. Maybe I should write that...;) And, red is my favorite color.
Luigi is great too. Deceptively similar, but different in attitude and style.
Peach has always been a favorite, especially after Super Smash Brothers Melee (no one can swing a racket or a pan like my princess :anime: ). You don't see that many sweet female characters in games (most of them are "tough chicks" or "vampire babes"). I would love to get a DS and play her game.
And, don't forget Daisy, whom I came to love from Mario Tennis 64. She's cool too!
Yoshi is the bomb. Forget Barney, this dinosaur rocks the house! :p
