||'''''Dr. Mario''''' is the first game in the ''Dr. Mario'' series; it was released for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] and for the [[Game Boy]] in 1990. The game brought the basic concept of the series to the players' attention immediately, as they would start the game off having to reorganize falling vitamin capsules in order to eradicate viruses from the screen. Once all viruses has been eliminated, the player would move on to the next [[level]]. As the game progressed, each level rose in difficulty, providing more viruses for the player to eliminate and less space to maneuver the [[Capsule|vitamin capsules]] in. ''Dr. Mario'' was ported and remade many times after its original release. | ||'''''Dr. Mario''''' is the first game in the ''Dr. Mario'' series; it was released for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] and for the [[Game Boy]] in 1990.

||'''''Dr. Mario 64''''' is the second installment in the ''Dr. Mario'' series, released on the [[Nintendo 64]] in 2001. The concept from the original ''Dr. Mario'' had continued in this installment, with the only major change being a graphics update. The player still had to reorganize vitamin capsules in their respective color pattern in order to eliminate viruses. This game also featured a Story Mode. In this mode, [[Wario]] is introduced to the series. Dr. Mario and Wario must retrieve the Megavitamins that had been stolen. However, all the battles were against the computer. | ||'''''Dr. Mario 64''''' is the second installment in the ''Dr. Mario'' series, released on the [[Nintendo 64]] in 2001.

||'''''Dr. Mario Online Rx''''' (known in Europe and Australia as '''''Dr. Mario & Germ Buster''''') is a game specially made for [[WiiWare]], released in 2008. It had no story mode, unlike ''Dr. Mario 64'', but the player can play with others online via [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]]. It is also possible for the player to play as their own [[Mii]]. It actually contains two games: the original ''Dr. Mario'', and ''Germ Buster'' (known in NTSC regions as ''Virus Buster''), a game originally from ''Brain Age 2'' (known in Europe as ''More Brain Training of Dr. Kawashima''). ''Germ Buster'' is a special game that uses the motion control of the Wii Remote, to move the capsules to the [[Virus]]es. ''Germ Buster'' includes a Co-op mode in the main game self, so, if there is any other Wii Remote on, the player of that Wii Remote can play too, to help the first one. In ''Germ Buster'' the player can press on Miis too (while playing) to let then say something in a text bubble. When pressing on Viruses outside the bottle (again while playing), they will laugh happily to the player. Players can also send demo versions of ''Dr. Mario Online Rx'' to friends, but WiiConnect24 is needed. Also, in the Demo version, the player can only play online with another friend. | ||'''''Dr. Mario Online Rx''''' (known in Europe and Australia as '''''Dr. Mario & Germ Buster''''') is a game specially made for [[WiiWare]], released in 2008.
