Mario came first
Definately the original Mario. Then Zelda, then Pokemon.
The Mario brothers were first seen in 1983 in the arcade game Mario Bros. Mario was "invented" before Luigi and first showed up in the game Donkey Kong in 1981. The Super Mario Bros. first came up in late 1985 for the Nintendo Entertainment System.
Mario first appeared as a character in 1981 in the arcade game Donkey Kong. The first Legend of Zelda game was released in 1986 for the Nintendo Entertainment System. It is safe to say that Mario was conceived before Zelda.
Mario was born at the time when the first Mario game came out. I'm too lazy to look it up, so how 'bout you?!
