Who is better, Sonic or Mario?

What personality disorders if any do you think they have? To me Sonic has always seemed like a narcissist!

Mario hands down no competition. F*** Sonic. Those games are s*** in comparison. Just compare the more recent games. Sonic Generations vs Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon? Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon I would argue is one of the best games developed for the 3ds thus far with an interesting plot line and stunning graphics. Sonic Generations is just a boring racing game. Plus, 9/10 Mario games are outstanding (the recent Mario parties for wii being the exceptions).

I'm not sure about any personality disorders though. I don't know if Mario's character is ever developed enough. Sonic is definitely narcissistic but I'm not sure he'a NPD.
Thanks for this!

Ha Mario will always be the wannabe who started off as a bad guy in Donkey Kong!

I admit that the modern Mario games have been better, but for nostalgia reasons for me it'll always be Sonic!

Sonic is more fun . Hands down more interesting environments and game mechanics are way more unique and interesting.

I dont' typically analyze game character personalities. Sorry I dont' have an answer for that question
Thanks for this!

I don't have an answer as to which is better, but they both seem to be hoarders. Sonic carrying around all those coins that pop outta nowhere if you hit a bad guy, and Mario always steals the flag at the end of a run, lol.

Oopsa, been a long time since I played Sonic. Had an original nintendo system when I was growing up, but even so, I preferred to play as Luigi when I could.

Anyone who knows me knows what I'll say, but I'll say it anyway. Go Sonic!

As for the other question... Mario's a pretty flat character where personality is concerned, and Sonic... I wouldn't say he has a personality disorder so much as an identity crisis. Seems to have forgotten a couple times that he's an anthropomorphic animal.

Mario, because he is brave enough to jump into and slide through big green pipes.

A short italian bloke with a thick moustache sliding down greasy pipes...

You'd think he'd learn to keep the Princess safe rather than having to keep rescuing her!

i'll take Legend of Zelda any day, though. i'm not too big on either Sonic or Mario. i grew up with Mario, not so much Sonic.
Thanks for this!

didn't you know, the Princess and Bowser got a thing going on and Mario is just an overly attached ex boyfriend...

i'm just kidding, but if you think of it that way, then really Mario is delusional, Peach is a ***** for writing to him whenever she goes on a date with Bowser, and Bowser is a really possessive and aggressive boyfriend.

thinking on it in that way, it's pretty horrible...
Thanks for this!

my husband is really into a lot of YouTube channels that go into depth on this kind of stuff or make funny shorts about it. also, as a fanfiction writer (though i haven't written anything in years), i think about this kind of stuff just for the hell of it.
Thanks for this!

I have to agree with DreamAddiction there. I'm a fanfiction writer too, after all. In fact, the first story I ever wrote was an adaption of Super Mario World several years ago. I portrayed Mario as a love-struck daydreamer, with the energy and focus of someone with ADHD. Make of that what you will.

Sonic has only been a recent (within the last 4 years) favorite of mine though. The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past was the first video game I ever completed, and I loved the series for almost a decade after.

As for Sonic Generations Vs Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, I've played both, and liked both. I object to Sonic Generations being dubbed a "boring racing game" however. I poured over 200 hours into that game, and got to be one of the best players worldwide!

Useless trivia: This same girl also likes Sim City and similar games.

Sonic,definitely. The graphics are cool. The coins, the time clock, everything about it is designed for a great gaming experience. I love sonic. I have even been known to watch sonic cartoons w/ the kids on Saturday mornings. Sonic is like me, he appears to be the tough guy but deep down in side he is just not understood.

What is the deal w/ Mario and Luigi they are always hunting for the princess. Give me a break. Any one remember the Mario Saturday cartoon show. It had Cindi Lauper and that wrestler dude on it. Wow I better be quiet. I am showing my age.

Yeah, I've seen some Sonic cartoons too. I don't know anything about any Mario cartoons, but in the games at least, Luigi also hunts ghosts. Not happily, but he does it.
