The second game in the Super Mario Bros series. Following the success of Super Mario Bros., Nintendo decided to follow it up with a Mission Pack Sequel, titled Super Mario Bros 2. There were four main differences between the original and the sequel: the two-player mode was replaced by the option to play the game as either Mario or Luigi, Luigi was given higher jumps but inferior traction, some of the graphics were updated, and the game was about as close to Platform Hell as one gets short of a romhack.

  • The second game in the Super Mario Bros series. Following the success of Super Mario Bros., Nintendo decided to follow it up with a Mission Pack Sequel, titled Super Mario Bros 2.

Even though this was back when every game - including the first installment - was Nintendo Hard, the insane difficulty of this game infuriated many players, making Nintendo decide not to release it in America. Still, the game sold well in Japan, it sold 2.5 million units, and was the all-time best-selling on the Family Computer Disk System. However, Nintendo of America needed a Western Mario sequel in record time, so Nintendo put Mario sprites into another game by Shigeru Miyamoto, Doki Doki Panic, and called it Super Mario Bros 2 (Super Mario USA in Japan so the Japanese wouldn't be confused when that game got released over there). When the original Super Mario Bros. 2 was finally released in America as part of the Super Mario All-Stars Compilation Rerelease, it was instead titled Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels. It was also included in the Game Boy Color remake of the first game, Super Mario Bros. Deluxe (though in both All-Stars and Deluxe, it shares the same graphics as its predecessor, losing some of its uniqueness).
