MSNBC has published their list of top-rated video games for kids, and Mario-universe titles take up spots two through four.
Super Mario Strikers leads off at #2, accompanied by the kid quote "Im usually not into sports games, but this is definitely what I would buy." The game is described as "pretty chaotic", preferring fun over realism.
Following Strikers is Mario Superstar Baseball at #3 and Dance Dance Revolution Mario Mix at #4. The remainder of the list is dedicated to two titles not appearing on GameCube (#1, #5) and the remaining two titles cross-platform movie spinoffs.
