I love the old Mario. And Mario cart.
But I'm not saying I don't like Zelda.

I haven't played any Zelda games yet, but I want to. They look like they'd slam Mario into the ground.

Yeah, they have swords. That is one of the main reasons they rock. ^_^

Yes, swords definitely make things alot cooler (especially when they're katanas). ^_^

You know what? That is actually a VERY hard question to answer! But I had to go with Zelda just because I had to pick one...I really can't decide between the two, so I just picked. ;)

Mario is awesome I'll give it that...but come on...Mario can't use a sword, bow, boomerangs, bombs, hookshot (my fav), megaton hammer, play songs, cast magic, and take on hundreds of enemies all at the same time...

Plus Ganon is a better villain than Bowser could ever be. :P

So I vote Zelda ^^. Oh yeah and Epona rocks :D.

I gotta go Mario. From Donkey Kong to Sunshine, I haven't played a Mario game I don't like. Nothing against Zelda, I like the Zelda games as well, just prefer Mario.

Well I've played more Mario games than Zelda (Ocarina of Time). Mario is a classic game that I played often during my childhood. I'm going to have to go with Mario!

I'm not voting. I'm just too attached to both sides. I mean, yes, Zelda is incredible as an adventure game, but that's all it is (which isn't bad, by any means :P). Mario has a wider variety, though half of them I don't really care about (I hate racing games).
However, you can't deny the Mario RPG games, as those things are pretty daggum fun, even if they don't have the same "level" as many RPGs out there.

Just can't decide...

Depend on it. God's work done in God's way will never lack God's supply. He is too wise a God to frustrate His purposes for lack of funds, and He can just as easily supply them ahead of time as afterwards, and He much prefers doing so.
- J. Hudson Taylor
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times." It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach. He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.
