The first Mario game that. I've ever played,from what I remember,was a port of Super Mario World to the Game Boy Advance,and I remember being really fun,even though I got stuck in some levels,since I was very new at the time I had the game,but unfortunately,I don't have the game and my GBA now,since I remember giving them to my uncle.But the first Mario game that I ever OWNED,was either Mario Kart DS or Super Mario 64 DS.MKDS is probally my favorite Mario Kart game out there,competing with MK8(Reminder:I never played any MK game that came before DS,even though I still hope to play 64 and Double Dash sometime in the future,if possible),and SM64DS was great and nostalgic to me,like MKDS.
