Very good for it's time and had some cool stages, but the physics feel off, the game is a bit inconsistent, and it's often more tedious than fun or challenging. Doesn't hold up near as well as 2 or 3

2 isnt even really 2 hence the 2 USA tag but SMB1 and Lost Levels/2JPN are the ones I revisit the least out of the NES ones.

Ehhh, while 2 was different in Japan, it has since become an accepted part of the series, and unlike the lost levels it isn't shit >.>

I like 2 USA a lot apart from the ending and Peach being broken was amazing lol.

Yeah, its honestly pretty bare bones and you can feel theyre still figuring out what this thing is/should be in the level design.
Sonic 1 and DKC 1 are both similar in that regard, IMO.

Peach was the best.

My earliest game memories were of the later NES games, and even by that point, Super Mario Bros was boring to me. The quality progressed quickly.

I had it. That game was hard as shit, but still pretty fun and unique. And also the soundtrack was incredible, but that's pretty much every Follin soundtrack.

I don't remember it having any levels, just phases.

I've never really enjoyed the original SMB either, even as a kid. I got both it and SuperDoki MarioPanic 2 when I got my NES, and the latter was always my jam; SMB 3 and onward made the first completely obsolete in my book.

It was the big farewell game because Nintendo intended to move on to the famicom disk.

Super Mario World is the best of the original games, before the jump to 3D imo

Oh yeah. The Lost Levels were proof that Nintendo was the OG troll making Mario levels.

Well it's 35 years old, and a launch title for one of the biggest gaming generation jumps in history. So naturally it's gonna be dated and simple. It's a fun game but people who laud it as the greatest game ever are looking at it from that perspective. If you play a 2600 game (literally any released prior to '85), there's no comparison.

I actually just beat it for the first time a mere five years ago. It's way underrated in terms of difficulty IMO. Lots of "superhard" games for the NES took me a lot less time and a lot less tries to beat.

SM USA is the true SMB 2.

This is officially recognized by Miyamoto himself.

Probably just me but the stupid hammer bros in 1 are borderline unbeatable, while the ones in LL were a cakewalk.

In 1, they stand still, jumping up and down for a while. Wait a while and they will start moving towards you.
They cut dwn on the waiting time in LL.
So if you have a problem with them, simply wait.

I think waiting is exactly the problem. My reflexes are too slow to judge when they're about to throw a hammer and then accelerate under the next thrown hammer so if I come to a stop I'm dead. Maybe they timed it differently in LL so that just flying through is more viable or something. All I know is they kill me at least ten times more often in 1 than in LL.

When I was a kid, that's what I'd do most of the time, or sacrifice myself if I was large.
