A popular internet joke upon the release of Super Mario 64 was "What happened to Super Mario 4 through 63?" If one is to calculate every Mario game released before Super Mario 64, including outliers such as ports and titles not released on Nintendo hardware like Mario Teaches Typing, the game would be the 113th title on the series. However, if you were to only count games released on non-devoted Nintendo hardware and remove ports, the title would be, very anti-climactically, the 63rd Mario game.

Note: the article concludes at Super Mario 64 being the 62nd game. However, this article's rules are "No games with the same name", not "No ports", which doesn't account for 1994's Donkey Kong on Game Boy, which was marketed as a remake, but in reality a completely unique game.
