so not true! you forgot the wind! backward warp zones! the very agressive hammer brothers that charge at you! the tree chompers that don't stay down if your beside the pipe! the bouncy board that makes you fly! the fact that its very possible to jump the flag pole! the the octopus that you can kill above water! Lugie jumps higher-as horrible traction-mario has better traction but doesnt jump high! and they introuduced jumping on the koopas to get higher! so many differences!
I played this game on the Super Mario All-Stars cartridge for SNES. This game is RIDICULOUSLY hard, but that's what makes it fun. To beat castle D-4 took me literally thousands of lives, and several months of dedicated play. This is the best SMB game.
I have Super mario allstars for my SNES. And i have played both the original super mario bros and super mario bros the lost levels. And sometimes super mario bros the lost level is easier. Why? If get a GAME OVER you start of on the level you died. Not it the beginning of the world as in super mario bros
Honestly, the game was far too hard, the puzzles where unfair, the game relied too much on pixel perfect jumping, there's no innovation whatsoever in the gameplay (exactly the same as SMB1) and the level design was uninspired having no discernable theme or pattern. Winged Koopa's underwater, Bloopers flying in the air... it is something I'd expect from a damn ROM hack. Nintendo where right to re-skin Doki Doki, it was a far superior game.
I agree it was different but where as Zelda 2 felt out of place, Doki Doki Panic was made by the same people as Mario, so there's little different with it and the original SMB. It makes me think of Donkey Kong for the Gameboy and I like the lifting/throwing mechanic. Zelda 2 however changed genre of it's previous game which felt wrong. But it's a matter of taste. You don't have to like SMB2 but Lost Levels is simply bad, people only like it because of nostalgia.
@TornadoCreator i like challenge.say metroid prime 2 is hard.i say:BULLSHIT.the game is easy as fuck with a turbo controller.and for some reason i liked zelda 2 better than zelda 1.maybe it felt more comfortable using a DS lites PWNAGE GBA emulation skillz.for some reason i also hate super mario bros 3,and super mario 64.
Well I personally consider Super Mario Bros. 3 one of the greatest platformers out there, if not the greatest. It's still one of the most fun platformers for me even now, although I play it on the All Stars SNES Cart. Super Mario 64 however I absolutely hate. It is toated as this great game, with most reviewers saying "near perfect controls and perfect camera", BULLSHIT! It was slow to react and the camera was restrictive and as for the gameplay, complete wank. So we agree there.
@TornadoCreator and sunshine is superior to 64.and i cant pic up king bomb omb worth shit.the DS version,however was greatly improved.better camera and awesome minigames.and better controls,and 30 more stars to collect and u can play as wario,yoshi,and luigi!awesome!
Some things you left out that made SMB and SMBLL (Lost Levels) different:
~Mario and Luigi have different running speeds and jump heights.
~There are some warp pipes that take you backwards to previous worlds.
~In SMB1 if you enter a pipe then exit it will take you somewhat more advanced into the level. In SMBLL some pipes will move you backward in the level.
~New enemies were introduced like the red piranha plant and bloopers in the sky.
Just cos it looks the same doesn't mean it is the same.
I think this game added a little bit more than just the poisonous mushrooms. Don't forget that Luigi jumps higher and slides as opposed to being a Mario clone. Also there are windy stages, springboards that bounce you above the field of view, and flying bloopers.
in Super Mario Bros. Deluxe, if you beat the game, then beat it again with hard levels AND beat luigi's score, then you get the original levels that were on the arcade games. i hate poison mushrooms.
I made a Mario Bros. marathon this week with Mario All Stars for the SNES (emulator with XBOX360 controller).
I started out with Mario Bros. 1 and though it looks very easy, the rules leave no space to screw up. Anyway, I get to the princess and she says like: "Thx, try again harder." o.O So I did that the next day and there was hardly any difference. So I warp-skipped like 2 worlds because it got boring. Next I tried Mario Bros. Lost Levels and kept dying, I kinda got frustrated and thus
started Mario Bros. 3. Wow, what a difference. Though it seems to be bigger, the levels are very short and the rules are a lot more forgiving. For example when you throw a koopa shell directly at an obstacle and it bounces back, you don't get hit, also there are more power-ups and getting hit, only shrinks you back one step. Anyway, my second try with Lost Levels was a success and I'm telling you, this game doesn't joke around, the hard mode after world 8 really is harder. Bowser stays boring...
Ya, you're right. He says that poison mushrooms are the only added elements, but that's not true. Like you said, there's also backwards warp zones. Not only that, but there's also red piranha plants (they act differently from the standard green ones), winds that push you, and green springs that make you jump ridiculously high (e.g. off-screen). Add to that the fact that Mario and Luigi play totally different. There's a lot that this reviewer left out (and maybe is unaware of).
Oh, wait, I didn't see your first comment... I basically repeated almost everything you said. But, ya, this reviewer barely even mentioned all the real differences. My guess is he probably didn't get very far in the game.
Wow you suck. You didnt even MENTION the difference between mario and luigi in this game. Mario is exactly the same as the old game but luigi has physics that are WAY different. Jumps higher, bounces off enemies higher, is slower to stop when running fast and more I dont even know for sure. That is THE unique feature in this game, IMO.
This took what the first game did, but did it better and stronger and harder.
And why 8.4 that was really random at the end, you did not explain it.
What? "An 8.4 score out of 10"? It just wasn't good enough to get an 8.5, yet slightly better than 8.3, huh? Stop being such a pussy and give the damn game an even number if you're gonna grade it!
They didn't release this game in America way back then because they said it was too hard for US gamers. But back then, they released Adventure Island for the NES, and that game is definately harder than SMB2 Japan. In fact, Adventure Island was released in the US the same year that we got our version of SMB2 way back in '88.
you got it on the snes. in the Mario-All Stars package way back in the early 90's. it wasn't released because it was harder and more of an expansion game
Oh, who plays this? Millions upon millions of people. Super Mario Bros is the most popular video game series of all time. It doesn't matter if the graphics aren't as realistic as nowadays. Gameplay over graphics, you moron. And what does it matter how old it is? Super Mario Bros games were revolutionary for their time and STILL are better than almost every game released since then.
You're such a retard, seriously.. Personally I've never even played this one particular game, but you're judging of a game depending on its age, its graphics and whether it's online? It's pathetic. Online games weren't even around back then, have some respect for the games that revolutionalised the industry and paved the way for future games.
How can you make a legendary platforming game in an RPG Maker XP? Seriously. And "pixel game"? All games have pixels. The screen you're looking at has pixels.
iSewil, your comments are very ignorant. Not only are you judging a game purely by it graphics, but twenty years from now the games that you play today will also be "old" and have "shitty graphics" as you so colorfully put it. You're the kind of person that would say Casablanca sucks because it's in black & white. You have no respect for the classics and, therefor, you have no right to call yourself a gamer.
Lets compare it to the halo series. Same gameplay with a couple new features, but otherwise the same game. The diferance is that you are paying $60 more for the same game.
@tuxedomoroboshi i fucking agree with that i hate the people who are playing mw2
and say NES and the classics suck balls lets face it without the nes we would have no xbox or ps3 ...a true gamer is a person who respects classics and doesn't judge on graphics alone .
Actually, Nintendo of Japan had nothing to do with the decision of whether or not the game came over here, it was Nintendo of America. It was people from Nintendo of America that thought it would be too hard for American gamers and Howard Lincoln hated the game because he thought it was "too repetitive" and "it didn't bring much more to the table". Of course, I believe he was dead wrong, because this game has PLENTY to offer. But ya, Howard Lincoln and NOA were the ones behind the decision.
@TheGordyHow so you hate everyone who plays mw2? You hate like 80% of people in the world XD
