Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 does try something novel, by sucking the characters into a time vortex and spitting them out in the 1964 Tokyo Games, which are played as 8-bit throwbacks with a CRT filter.

The games of the XXXII Olympiad were, of course, postponed for a year by the COVID-19 pandemic, and though the Tokyo Games organizers have pegged July 23, 2021, for the opening ceremonies, who can say, really, when the games will go on until they actually do? Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 is the same kind of button-mashing gimmickry for which its forebears were also known, but it has the distinction of being the only way to experience the 2020 Games to date. Even with the rival mascots anchoring a party-game series of events, they’re still the most underwhelming, unanticipated adaptation among major sports licenses. Summer or winter, the Olympics have never translated well to video games. Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 I’ve also labeled which titles are available with your Nintendo Switch Online subscription, and which will be going away at the end of March 2021. So here we go! Starting from the worst and working our way upward, here is every Mario game currently available on Nintendo Switch, in order of quality. The only exception made was for Luigi’s Mansion 3, because c’mon, that’s a Mario game, right? It’s just green Mario! The bad news is that some of the best Mario games on the Switch are on their way out at the end of March, so we thought it was important to take a look at every single Mario game available on the platform and rank them, using advanced scientific algorithms that exist on the blockchain, so you know this list is 100% objective truth.Įxcept the ranking is based on our opinions and no actual science, but I feel like if you say something is on the blockchain people care more? We also had to put some ground rules in place so we weren’t overwhelmed with games the rules are that Mario has to either have his name on the game, or he must be the lead character. In fact, Nintendo’s portable/console hybrid is home to perhaps the most, and best, Mario games that have ever been offered on a single piece of hardware before. It’s next to impossible for most mortals to collect every Mario game, but Nintendo has made it easy for fans to put together a pretty impressive selection of Mario titles on Nintendo Switch.
