20 Best Nintendo Games Of The Decade

20. Super Mario 3D Land

The 3DS took the acclaim gained by the original DS and somehow managed to amplify it even further until it basically kicked every other portable console off the market. And of course no Nintendo console, big or small, is complete without its own Mario title. Enter the simplistic but enjoyable Super Mario 3D land.

It isn't the most unique Mario game out there. In fact, beyond bringing back old favorites like the Tanooki suit, it does remarkably little actually new. But then, does it need to? Mario games are a weird lot. As long as they're consistently fun, most Nintendo fans will buy it and let it do its thing, because Mario has been in VERY few actually legit bad games. And even then, there's very little consensus on what the bad ones are.

3D Land is just simple fun, and with Mario, there is NOTHING wrong with that. This game can best be described as happiness in a cartridge, and while it's nowhere near the best Mario game on this list, that doesn't stop it from being an addictive and fun time in its own right.
