For me personally it was Super Mario Bros. 3

UltraNova1859d ago

Agreed. Super mario bros 3, Banjo and kazoui 64 and Super mario 64. In that order.

optimus1859d ago

super metroid did it for me., but platformers in general i tend to spend more time on than most other genres....currently making my way through hollow knight as opposed to red dead 2 which i left at 35% a couple of months ago.

XxINFERNUSxX1858d ago

Oh man Super Metroid for the SNES was amazing.

Yi-Long1859d ago

Hollow Knight would have deserved a mention.
Super Mario World is amazing as well.

That picture from the article of bowser set up Mario with his fire breath was the fakest add just like the Ultra 64. I have to give Nintendo the crown for Ultra downgrade when they had people believe that Killer Instinct was going to look like its arcade counterpart but ended up looking nothing like it. I have to give Nintendo on making Zelda Ocarina of Time look the way it did for its time. I'm glad they didn't call it Zelda 64.

CertifiedGamer1856d ago

Sorry but Castlevania Symphony of the night as awesome as the game is, isn't a platform in the same sense that Mario is. Symphony of the Night is an RPG mixed Adventure where people have to gain level and experience points on Alucard. I would say the best platformer is Super Mario World.

Will There Ever Be A New Rayman Game?

Ubisoft barely have a leg to stand on lately, so do they need to crack open the vaults and return platforming royalty to glory for some goodwill?

We need Rayman 4, they could make a great platformer game if they wanted. With the open hub levels and the like.

Better than relying on Rabbids and Assassins Creed all the time

Profchaos60d ago

Yeah agree id love a Rayman 2 style 3d platform game over another 2d platformer I know people loved legends but it never gelled with me same as Rayman 1 back in the day on PS it just felt like a average platformer with sonic and Mario offering something better on what was then last gen hardware

Terry_B61d ago

Yes..but I am sure it won't be the Rayman game fans want. Not from the company that is Ubisoft today.

mastershredder61d ago (Edited 61d ago )

Ancel is retired from games. His hoodlum/rabbid team are doing their own thing. It would not be the same if Ubisoft did.

Profchaos60d ago

Probably far more profitable to make low effort Rabbids games aimed at kids over a next Rayman

Chocoburger60d ago

Experience points, skill trees to fill up, level gating, endless menial tasks and side quests, constantly scrounging for resources. Always having to upgrade your gear. A.KA. "The Ubisoft effect".

No thanks, don't ruin Rayman's legacy.

Profchaos60d ago

Sure there will be it'll launch right alongside the next splinter cell

Rayman Legends - 10 Years of Legendary Platforming

Rayman Legends made its debut 10 years ago today, and has been launched on nearly every gaming platform since.

HankHill243d ago

Too bad Ubisoft only cares about live service games now. Maybe one day they'll make a new Rayman game.

Venoxn4g242d ago

Great games.. would be cool to get qn Origins remaster at least..I know that many of the levels are in Legends, but still

Outlawzz242d ago

Loved this game but wish they would create a new Rayman 3d game.
