STILL THE KING
whoa
turnip for what
I like smb2 because you can play as peach and cheat
smb2 is awesome
true and best smb sequel
unlike smb1/3 it also stands out as just a Weird Game still as it hasnt been referenced a billion times
the closest i think we've gotten is captain toad treasure tracker. the only other game i can immediately think of with Veggies
smb2 captain toad and 3dw are like closely related
3DW is basically a modernized version of SMB2
Did we already do a Mario 2 game club
no lol
idk, 3dw doesn't really have carrying / throwing (or vertical levels)
yeah smb2 has been in the back pocket for a good while
mount beanpole?
theres like two
i wanna say that like a third of smb2 levels were vertical
maybe this isnt the strongest claim now that im thinking of the fuzzy time mines and uhh that glass tower level with thwomps and poison gas
im bringing attention to vertical levels though bc smb2 was the first mario game that used em
I guess it's a modernization (derogatory) then
lol
carrying and throwing objects is cool and important and smw extended it even more and. i really wish that mario experimented more with the idea
smb2 mario maker has some cool stuff like carrying a dry bones above you so you can jump into a on/off block with a piranha plant underneath
i keep thinkin about shifting carrying positions from up / in front / maybe even below when midair so that if you land on spikes or something, you just bounce off of the enemy
prob a convo best saved for my own game dev experiments though. i just wanna say that smb2 is cool for introducing carrying and throwing
oh. also i find super mario advance to be such a funny iteration on smb2
why's that
it's super mario all stars smb2 but with a ton of random "look at how cool the GBA is!" shit
yeah it's a remaster of a remaster
like sprite rotation or that one really weird platform in the starting screen that never appears again
well remaster of a remake
"what a tasty treat" is a voiceline I misheard for at least 10 years
the voice lines are so funny now
I wonder what they would sound like on the SNES
I'm ready for you THIS time
more compressed at best
@covert sand
game of the year gameclub finally
Ah yes, SMB2 USA, got it
SMB2's black sheep status that existed from the 90's and early 2000's has since subsided a bit, and I think those left discussing it can appreciate it for all the unique elements it introduced to the series.
I've always liked when the games harken back to it. YI took Shy Guys and gave them a new lease on life, 3DW is a sort of modern take. I only wish that all of the characters from the game could make a return.
#1 game of all time
honestly I would love to see Mouser and Wart brought back in some sort of future mainline mario game
its unlikely but it would be cool
I’ll second that! They’re seriously underused
Imagine a game where Wart usurps Bowser’s power
That'll sound fun
I think a game where Wart and Bowser wage war on each other while Mario’s gang gets caught in the crossfire could be cool
a few months ago I did a Toad-only warpless run of the GBA version
and it was definitely a challenge
couldn't do all the skips I usually do with characters who can actually jump well like luigi
i cant believe this
I was so close to completing my first ever warpless & deathless run of the NES version, but then I panicked and died to the green Birdo at the end of 7-1.

Is it possible to have each character have the same amount of contributions
what happens then
if more than one character has the same amount of level clears it just alternates between their names
Still don't understand why Wart hasn't been brought back.
I wonder what the reason for it could be.
Probably because they don't seem to find and use for him
whats everyones final thoughts on smb2...
it's already over?
One of the least creative entries, but a quality entry nonetheless.
Sometimes, weird ones are for the best.
did you know that super mario bros 2 for the nes wasnt even a mario game at first thats right its based on a game called doki doki panic and
