Every Mainline Mario Finale Ranked

Happy New Year everybody! How would you rank the mainline Mario finales?

Something I think Wonder needed was a second phase after the main fight. Giant Bowser is nothing new, sure, but a shadowy Giant Bowser with his power to warp reality itself going haywire as it spills out from his head, introducing, changing and combining random effects for total chaos as you desperately rush to stop his rampage before the damage becomes irrepairable? That'd be an encore I'd watch.

Fun fact: Super Mario Bros. 2 is such an easy game, it only took me two days to beat it... if I recall correctly from my childhood. And back then, I didn't realize just how bad that final boss was, mostly because the bosses I hated at the time (and still hate more) were more frustrating than pathetically easy.

Oh, hell yeah! This is really the best way to end it off. For me, Super Mario Galaxy, Super Mario Odyssey and Super Mario 3D World are my favorite mainline Mario finales. Idk if it's just me, but I think Bowser's second boss theme in Odyssey is honestly even better than that of Super Mario Galaxy 2, going so far to say it's imo the best final boss theme in the mainline Mario series. Still, I predict that some of the older games and Sunshine rank pretty low and games like Galaxy, Odyssey and 3D World rank high. I will get to see tomorrow for The Grand Finale of this year. See you there, Tony and everyone else! Edit: Well, guess my prediction of the good finales was not only right, but also happened to be the top 3 and I agree with it 100%. As for Sunshine, although the final boss was pathetically easy and boring, I will give it some credit. The music ain't that bad and the scene with Bowser and Bowser Jr. was pretty nice. Sunshine is still the worst finale overall, but New Super Mario Bros. 2 has to be my least favorite. A funny thing you mentioned about Odyssey with the final stretch is that the one who sings the song that played in the deepest part of the moon voiced Tails in the past. Making it become Sonic with the vibe makes it all the more funny and cool.

SMW Honestly, I think the presence of the Character Parade at the end is a nice touch too. It even changes if you've completed the Special World to reflect the new sprites. Just thought I should mention it, since the video didn't.

I like Super Mario Galaxy 2 final boss because as a kid I was shocked and scared, Bowser was like no more playing around its time to get serious.

Yep, those exclusions make sense to me! Not like it changes anything, since the ones that are remakes don't add anything to the finale. Lost Levels 8-4 HOLD IT! The actual last level is D-4! Which... still fits every aspect of the discussion, right down to the extra Bowser. Huh. Carry on!

VIDEO SPOILERS There was no better way to end off this list then with the godlike creation being the Final Boss of Galaxy. Truly deserving! But I'm glad that you gave the Final Boss in Odyssey the every amount of praise that it rightfully deserved as well. As for everything else, I can agree with them all for the most part.

Great way to end the year a look back on older Mario finals hope you had a great year Tony and I hope next will be even better 😁💙

I have a video recommendation idea for you, similar when you ranked villains from Sonic, how about ranking villains from your other favorite gaming franchise Mario.

Happy 2024 TonySonic!!!
