Davideo7 : I'm Mario 3 or as you know me here, The Mario Gamer

janus : What about the real SMB2? The only depart  from the normal Mario play is how hard it is compared to the 1st game and the fact it introduced the 1st power down in Mario game known as the poison mushrooms as well as being the longest in  the Super Mario Bros. trilogy.

janus : I was going by the Japanese names of the characters

Intro:
Here's a legend no one will forget: Everyone thought  Donkey Kong is Mario's worst worry when a wave of watery black magic went over the Mushroom Kingdom! King Koopa is invading the Mushroom Kingdom. With no other choice, The Mushroom Kingdom summons the Mario Brothers: Mario and Luigi to defeat King Koopa and restore peace to the mushroom kingdom by resureing Princess Peach from Koopa and to do that they must overcome the odds and become the Super Mario Bros.  Released in Japan for the NES in 1985. Let's review this game before I play it to death.

Addictiveness: 6
I consider this game to be very addictive because of one set of things in it: the secrets. This game  is not as addictive as Super Mario Bros. 2, but more addictive than the other Super Mario Bros. 2.

Difficulty: 5
I find this game's difficulty to be hard during sometimes and easy other times one hard time is 1-3 of the Japanese version. The reason is because of the bullet Bills in the level. If you do a complete play through of the Japanese version of this game than you will get a game over in 1-3 from not know there's bullet bills in the 3rd level of the game if you are playing Super Mario Bros. for the 1st time in your life.

Depth: 10
Other than the secrets, most of the depth comes from the bad guys and levels. With only 35 levels to play through, you adventure will take a long time to finish if you take a century to beat any video game. But if you go through the game normally, you'll beat 32 of the levels.

Story: 10
At the time of this games release it was ground breaking in the department of video game stories. The story goes like this: One day the Mushroom Kingdom was invaded by Bowser who turned the toads into stones and bricks and kidnapped Princess Peach, who is the only one who can return the toads to their normal selves.

Sound: 10
The game sounds Really Good

Graphics: 9
I have the same thing to say about the graphics...if the ground didn't like bricks

Barathemos : And thank you for the suggestions of what I should do in my reviews!

Barathemos : Should I review prototypes like it is the final version of the game it is a prototype to?

This game is a good game for a prototype.

If you are not convinced Super Mario Brothers 2 was not a  Mario game originally. You will the second you go to subspace because you go there by picking a magic lamp and rubbing it to make a door appear.  The game can drags by making there be no run button for this version Super Mario Brothers 2 so, I hope you have 100 years to spare when you start playing this game.  The end of level mini game do not look like the mini game from the final and better version of this game, but the concept is the same; get a coin from subspace, get to the end of the level, and get a cherry from the mini game. The concept of throwing things at bad guys to beat bad guys to cool for a Mario game.
