    After 36 years, there have been a lot of Mario games, with hundreds of levels between them and most of them are pretty great. So we decided it was time to comb through the treasure trove of stages and poll our entire staff to find out which levels have stood the test of time better than all the rest.
    Please note, while certain members of the staff championed to include wonderful levels from games like Paper Mario, and even Super Mario World 2 (which is undoubtedly part of the Yoshi series), we opted to stick with games from the main series So expect to see levels from Super Mario 64, Super Mario Odyssey, Super Mario Sunshine, and even Super Mario Bros. for NES!
