#

I like smb2 because you can play as peach and cheat

urban raptor
#

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

uncut bolt
#

smb2 captain toad and 3dw are like closely related

tranquil glen
#

guys

#

SMB2 was the first isekai

tulip tundra
#

3DW is basically a modernized version of SMB2

#

Did we already do a Mario 2 game club

uncut bolt
#

no lol

urban raptor
#

idk, 3dw doesn't really have carrying / throwing (or vertical levels)

#

yeah smb2 has been in the back pocket for a good while

urban raptor
#

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

tulip tundra
urban raptor
#

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

tulip tundra
#

why's that

urban raptor
#

it's super mario all stars smb2 but with a ton of random "look at how cool the GBA is!" shit

tulip tundra
#

yeah it's a remaster of a remaster

urban raptor
#

like sprite rotation or that one really weird platform in the starting screen that never appears again

tulip tundra
#

well remaster of a remake

mild zenith
#

"what a tasty treat" is a voiceline I misheard for at least 10 years

urban raptor
#

the voice lines are so funny now

tulip tundra
#

I wonder what they would sound like on the SNES

tranquil glen
#

I'm ready for you THIS time

urban raptor
#

more compressed at best

game of the year gameclub finally

#

Ah yes, SMB2 USA, got it

fickle relic
#

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.

final pond
#

#1 game of all time

coarse fossil
#

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

limber rain
#

Imagine a game where Wart usurps Bowser’s power

#

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

tranquil glen
#

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

kindred perch
#

this is a fun game

#

also I like how the gba version has a level select

tranquil glen
#

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

tranquil glen
#

yeah

#

20 levels, use each character 5 times

final pond
#

what happens then

tranquil glen
#

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.

prisma nova
#

Probably because they don't seem to find and use for him

#

whats everyones final thoughts on smb2...

tranquil glen
#

it was all a dream

#

super nintendo sega genesis

tranquil glen
#

#

smb2 was the first isekai

tulip tundra
#

it's already over?

#

Sometimes, weird ones are for the best.
