I was playing Mario Galaxy yesterday when I just got the urge to pop in Mario64 on my N64. Playing that game brought me back to when i thought video games were at their prime.
To me, Mario 64 is the best platformer ever. It was so revolutionary and still incredibly fun today.
Come to think of it, the N64 had some great platformers! Mario 64, Banjo Kazooie, etc.

Well if Sonic counts as a platformer (which I believe it does), then Sonic 2 on the Genesis is my favorite.
-
Probably Super Mario 3 or Sonic 2. Not really into platformer's anymore.
-
Is this really even a question? -
Super Mario Bros. 3 set a standard!!!!!
-
Yes, it's better than Super Mario Bros. 3.
Barely. -
Lode Runner.
Just to be different. -

Bond for the N64, man we played multiplayer on that for hours and hours and hours. Mario Kart as well.

I simply said they were amazing games and made no reference to anything else, so there is no need for you to break this down with analogies. :PLast edited: Jul 23, 2008 -

Wow, a lot of guys don't even know what a platformer is. Sad. Just...sad.
Anyhoo, the best PLATFORMER of all time is SMB 3. Followed very closely by Super Mario World.Last edited: Jul 24, 2008 -
I'd have to say Conker's Bad Fur Day ... the first time I played through that game it was great.

I actually thought that Super Mario World was better than 3....and I am not really a platformer fan but that one got me addicted so that has to be a huge plus for SMW.

ok so this is a stretch, but bear with me. I would go ahead and say not a game, but a level in a game: Level 3, the Wind Tunnel, in Battletoads for NES. The game itself is not a platformer, but this level more or less is. and it was both the most fun and most frustrating level in a game i have ever played. If you need a reminder, check out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idZ9C0Qtj2A
however, a much more comical rendition of the level is this jewel that i found the other day: I could not stop laughing:
