List Of Mario Role-playing Games

The Mario franchise has inspired a variety of Mario role-playing games (RPG) to be released on multiple Nintendo video game consoles. All the games feature Mario as the main protagonist, who is often accompanied by one or more playable characters, including existing Mario characters and original characters introduced in each game. The plots of the Mario RPG games are considered to be more complex than of that of normal Super Mario titles, often featuring many original characters, settings, and scenarios.

The first game to introduce RPG elements into the Mario franchise was Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, developed by Square and released in 1996. The game has not received a direct sequel, but the two sub-series of Mario RPG games released in subsequent years, Paper Mario and Mario & Luigi, are considered to be its spiritual successors.
