Top 10 Best Nintendo Series

The Top Ten
1 Mario Bros.

The first game I ever played was Mario Party 8, and I loved it. Since then, I've played many other Mario games, but Mario Party will always be my favorite series. Hopefully, we can get 11 and 12 on the NX, and I hope these can be open world with larger stages.

Well, it did have a show, and it has some shirts and lunch boxes, but I can understand why Pokémon beat Mario.

I've never been into the Zelda games, so I have to go with Mario. They're so addictive!

2 The Legend of Zelda

Oh, YEAH! This series is just so great. It never gets old, and all of the games are incredible! You never know what plot twists will come because the story in every single game (ESPECIALLY Majora's Mask, which is my favorite) is amazing. The sidequests are really fun and entertaining, and you go through emotional tales of adventure that will just keep you on the edge of your seat the whole time! Two thumbs up from me!

I've yet to find another series that gives as much satisfaction and sense of adventure and purpose as the Zelda franchise. Fantastic games, even the weakest entries are fun.

3 Super Smash Bros.

Smash Bros. is really fun. You have all your favorite Nintendo characters in the same game fighting against each other! This game is also really fun when you play with friends!

Super Smash Bros. features all of your favorite Nintendo all-stars and allows you to see what would happen if they were in a fight.

This franchise introduced me to other Nintendo franchises besides Mario, Pokémon, and Kirby.

4 Pokémon

Pokémon, while it can seem repetitive, is a world of its own. The games do their best to immerse you in this world, and if they can do that, then you've been hooked. The series has many incarnations, spin-offs, and even a niche for competitive players. Overall, one of the top series of all time.

Pokémon has lunch boxes, a modern show, playing cards, and it is super common to find as a toy at McDonald's. How could anything beat it?

Plain great. After Mario and Zelda, it is the most classic. And it is the most fun.

5 Kirby

Part of my YouTube channel name, if I make one, will include Deluxe, which is part of the Kirby: Triple Deluxe game.

This series is my personal favorite because it has all you could ever want!

6 Metroid

What is Metroid doing all the way down here?! Seriously, 11?! Honestly, Metroid deserves better, which is obviously my opinion because I'm voting for it. Metroid has so much more than other Nintendo games, and some of the ones that are higher aren't even Nintendo series. Come on, Metroid deserves way better than this.

Metroid has always been my favorite. I've been playing it since the '90s. It was the first game I ever played. Nothing compares.

7 Mario Kart
8 EarthBound

The Mother trilogy, as it should be called, has taken the spot as my favorite series ever. LoZ would have won, but it's less consistent in quality, though there are many more games. The reason for the Mother trilogy being so good is that it really is unique. Sure, there are other RPGs, but how many of them have you fighting an overweight bully who's working with an insane alien, and have you finding stuff in the trash? Not many, that's for sure.

I am a die-hard Zelda fan, but the closest Zelda game to almost make me cry was OoT. The difference is Mother 3 and EarthBound made me want to rethink my life, and the games literally made me sit in awe after I completed them. There is no other series like the Mother series, but Zelda I would put second for sure.

9 Donkey Kong

I want a third entry in Donkey Kong's "Returns" series more than Metroid Prime 4.

10 Wario Land
The Contenders
11 Animal Crossing

Will suck your soul from what you think is real, but I love it.

I really love Redd from the games, and he needs to be more popular.

12 Paper Mario

Well, I only really played Super Paper Mario and Origami King, so from what I've played, it's good.

13 Fire Emblem

Maybe it's the turn-based gameplay that doesn't click with everyone. I love this set of games for how deeply fleshed-out their storylines are.

Fire Emblem: Awakening and Three Houses are incredible. People will come to realize just how good these games are. So underrated.

Fire Emblem is super underrated. Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon might be my favorite Nintendo game ever.

14 Donkey Kong Country
15 Star Fox
16 Pikmin

An amazing strategy game, different from everything else Nintendo has!

It was not as popular in the US, but it's still a great series!

17 F-Zero
18 Mario & Luigi

WHAT?! This series is fantastic. One of the better RPGs out there. It kinda went downhill after Paper Jam, but the remakes have been keeping this series alive.

19 Xenoblade Chronicles
20 Kid Icarus
21 Splatoon

Many shooters nowadays are all the same - gritty, gory games that little kids play to feel cool. However, Nintendo, with Splatoon and Splatoon 2, has turned the mechanics of shooter games on their head. The goal of Splatoon is to cover the area with as much ink as you can, a delightful breath of fresh air from typical shooter games. All of the ranked modes are fun (tower control gets absolutely crazy), the single-player campaign is much better than I ever expected it to be, and all of the weapons and outfits are varied in use and style.

Splatoon 2 built upon these foundations, and this is looking to one day be on the Mount Rushmore of Nintendo (Mario, Zelda, Pokémon, Kirby).

22 Magical Starsign
23 Advance Wars
24 Yoshi's Island
25 Mario Party

I don't know why nobody likes the Mario Party series, I mean, give it some credit!
