Your Mario's a beast! Loved the way you used your uairs. I suggest using dair more and jab set-ups like jab->D-smash or jab->grab. And the way you finished DK was sweet. :)

pretty good mario, but I'd try to chain your fireballs into a grab>upair combo more often. You had the chance several times, but never took it. :/

Stop spamming Fsmash....its one of his best killing moves and loses its purpose as it deteriorates when u spam it
When you do a lagless aerial instead of fsmashing do 2 jabs and grab or try a jab lock if you can learn it

look at his aerial moves some moves cause your opponent to trip or to do a random back flip. if they do thats when you jab lock. you coulda done it to DK a few times.

From watching the first video, you seemed to Full Jump too many times. Use Fastfall more often too. Against Ike, you should be spamming fireballs until he approaches, you shouldn't have to approach Ike. You also used jump into Nair as a jab type move, I find jab combo into downsmash to be much better and faster, especially against heavies.

Good vids though.

Don't jump into the ****.

With Ike, don't approach. Spam fireballs to pressure him into attacking you. You deteriorated the purpose of his Fsmash by spamming it. His Dsmash is better suited for situations where the opponent may try to dodge roll out of the Fsmash

With DK, you did good, but you shouldn't be so aggresive with him. If you have a chance to throw, take it because it will lead to a Uair combo. TONS of missed opportunities here.

And on a side note, how did the guy who hosts your videos get them to upload to Youtube?

He has a video capture card he hooks the wii up to his computer and records the replay.

One quick thing i forgot to mention :\ this was from about a month ago so i have improved on a lot you have mentioned but a lot learned from it too so thanks for the information so far ill try to get newer videos up soon.

Wishing Apex 2012 happened again.
On the first video, on 0:45-47, the mario seemed to have hesitated in attacking. He managed to powershield the attack and then rolls. In my book, I would have grabbed for a D-throw and get yourself setup for those U-airs. Otherwise, nice spacing and mobility on the finishing touchs of up-air. You have a Mario potential in my 2cents. As everyone said, follow their advice.
