- QuizThe game is derived from an original, completely different Japan-only game called Yume Koujou: Doki Doki Panic (1987) ('Dream Factory: Doki Doki Panic'), an Arabian-themed game inspired by a Japanese TV show, with no relation to the Super Mario universe (despite containing many similar elements). The original Japanese Super Mario Bros. 2 (Super Mario Bros. 2 (1986)) had only been released in Japan; Nintendo of America had rejected it for being too similar to Super Mario Bros. (1985) as well as too difficult, and not wanting to jeopardize the popularity of the Super Mario franchise in the USA, they had requested a different game. In the meanwhile, director Kensuke Tanabe had experimented with an early prototype game consisting of vertical scrolling, but found it insufficiently engaging and too complex to run on the hardware of the time. He and the Super Mario Bros. team later successfully combined the shelved prototype with horizontal scrolling, and created Doki Doki Panic, describing it as "a full-fledged new Mario". When the request for a different Mario sequel came in, Tanabe decided that he only needed to alter his own Doki Doki Panic game by inserting Mario, Luigi, Toad and Princess as playable characters. This explains why the second game, released in 1988, is so vastly different in design, theme and gameplay from the first. Such was the success of this international Super Mario Bros. 2 that it was also released in Japan in 1992 under the title "Super Mario USA". The original Japanese Super Mario Bros. 2 was finally released in America in 1991, as a part of Sûpâ Mario korekushon (1993) under the title "The Lost Levels".
- BlooperDuring the character credits, Ostro and Birdo's name's are switched, leaving Ostro's picture labeled "Birdo" and Birdo's picture labeled "Ostro." The game's instruction manual also contains this error.

Recensione in evidenza
The American SMB 2 is without a doubt the least popular Mario game, probably because the game-play is so different. The Japanese SMB 2 was not released in America because Nintendo was afraid it wouldn't sell well due to its high difficulty level and strong similarities to SMB 1. It was finally released in America as "Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels" as a part of the Super Mario All Stars game for Super Nintendo.
I'm in the minority but I like this Mario 2 better than the lost levels. I will admit it's disappointing not to have fire power, but all in all I think it's loads of fun. In my opinion, it's quite refreshing to play a Mario game that's so different. You don't have to save Princess Toadstool from Bowser, and you can actually play as Toad or the Princess instead of Mario or Luigi. All characters have their strengths and weaknesses. Mario is the most balanced character, with decent strength and jumping ability. The Princess is the weakest physically, so it takes her the longest to lift objects. However, she has the ability to fly for a few seconds at a time, which can really come in handy. Toad is the strongest, but he can't jump very high. Luigi is the best jumper, but he's not as strong as Mario or Toad.
This time, you have to save the people of Sub Con who have been imprisoned by the evil King Wart. Other bosses include Mouser (a rat who throws bombs), a three-headed snake, a crab that throws rocks, and fryguy, a ball of flame that spits fire. I would really like to see another Mario Bros. game with these characters in the future, but it seems unlikely because Bowser and the usual bad guys are so much more popular. The only bad guys from this game that crossed over into other Mario games are Shy Guys and the bo-bombs.
Is this the best Mario Bros. game? No. But it's certainly worth playing.
