I loved Superstar Saga on the GBA, played through it twice. Never played it on the DS.

Currently playing SMRPG on an emulator, and I like it a lot.

Never played a Paper Mario game. Thinking about playing it on an emulator after I've finished SMRPG.

I have not finished any of these three. But I think SuperStar Saga was my favorite.

I liked SMRPG but then my little brothers lost it.

I hated Paper Mario. Played it for a while, have gone back to it a few times, and have never been able to play it for long because I just didn't enjoy it.

I like Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga. I've enjoyed playing it although I got stuck on a part a little while ago and have not gotten back to it to finish the game.

I have never played Super Mario RPG, so I cant comment on that, but I have played both Paper Marios and the Superstar Saga for GBA. I enjoyed all 3 games pretty much equally. They each have their strengths. I do want to get the one for the DS soon though.

I guess that makes me the only Paper Mario fan. *Obviously it's a terrbile game, because most review sites have shot it down.*

Super Mario RPG is a classic game in the Mario saga, no doubt. So it's probably my favorite of the bunch.

I haven't really played Mario and Luigi, I do plan to do that some day.

And Paper Mario is awesome, I'm not sure why you all hate it. If you let the game progress a bit, it gets really fun, even if it isn't that hard.

Paper Mario wasn't that bad IMO. It had some funny moments and more than its share of fun gameplay.

This thread doesnt even deserve to exist. It's no competition.

Why not just compare pong to playing actual table tennis?

Super Mario RPG is possibly the best Mario game in existence, In my opinion. Because it did something most other Mario games didnt do: Give you new characters and a good storyline.

Hell, I'll still play Mario RPG from time to time.

And I've played the first Paper Mario, and I didnt think it sucked, but it was nothing special. It was basically "look at us, we can make a 3D game with 2D characters, arent we revolutionary!!?"

So all in all, Mario RPG rapes both of these other games while also fellating their mothers.
