Take your meds, schizo.
You're rambling again.

>>8729593
u mad?

>>8729595
No, u?

>>8729539
Which Mario game do you like?
Just play SMB 1, SMB 3 and SMW.

>>8729539
>>8729554
Play Yoshi Island as well.

>>8729539
You'll probably have the best time with Super Mario World. It's my favorite and it's easier than the others.

>>8729539
>I ask if dey wan ice cream, dey both say yes!

>>8729539
Play the first, then both of the 2's, and then 3. You can try World if the NES ones are too hard.

Grab an emulator and give SMB1 on NES a try. If you like it, keep playing from there. If it doesn't feel like it's for you, consider trying again with the All-Stars collection on SNES, or if you prefer, there's a line of GameBoy Color and Advance remakes instead. The remakes are fine but I recommend giving the original versions a test run first.

Coming off of NSMB, World is probably easiest to get into. Play a patched All-Stars rom of you're gonna tackle 1-3, since I doubt you'll be able to beat them in one go unless you want to abuse save states.

If you play those and still want more Mario, play Super Mario Land 1 & 2. The first one is beatable in half an hour, but it'll probably take a few tries.

no u

>>8729539
Start with the original and play in release order. Play the SNES version of lost levels because the Famicom version is less forgiving and requires you to beat the game 8 times to unlock every world.

>>8729961
Me? No u.

>>8729539
Go in chronological order. It would be best, and is also the most accurate as millions have went that order when the games were coming out

Kanker

Kankerzooi!

>>8729539
Play Super Mario Advance 4

>>8729539
World, 3, 1, 2

test

>>8729539
Ignore SMW and SMB2 (USA) entirely.

Play SMB1 (Japan), SMB2 (Japan) and SMB3 (Japan) in that order.

You should not be allowed to post on /vr/ about Mario games if you haven't beaten all these games as stated with proof.

>>8731448
I beat All Stars lost levels. Does that count?

You can play World directly after 1 and have a good time. 3 is good as a final classic mario.

2 and 3 both have the 1988 date, so it is fitting to play them alongside one another. Makes 3 last longer and 2 more tolerable.

>>8729539
SMB1/2/USA is worth a shot, but if they feel off and you don't like them then just skip them.

Just play world and world romhacks, Infinite levels and nice controls.
Nes mario controls are not good compared to it

>>8731594
>controls are all that matter
Despite 3 having weaker controls its infinitely better than world.

>>8729539
So the "small" super mario bros. are supposed to be zoomed out regular arcade mario bros. Would be interesting to see other smb assets at scale.

>>8731448
SMB2 USA is a much better game than the Lost Levels

>>8731705
Look up Mario's sprites in DK 1994; he's small Mario throughout the whole game, then changes in to big Mario in the ending.

Mmmm validation
I was a very early internet adopter in a south-eastern hick town of less than 15k so no one else really knew shit about where to go online for funny stuff.
Thanks for reading my blog

No, it isn't. You need to get good.

Shiggity shwa anon.

I SMELL THE S O Y

>>8732296
just because it's more difficult doesn't mean it's better. Lost Levels is just a retread of the first game but harder, but the difficult isn't actually satisfying because it's so poorly designed and janky that it's obvious it was just a cash grab. It feels like a glorified rom hack rather than an actual Nintendo game. there's a reason they didn't sell it in America. What's wrong with SMB2 USA? Do you just hate the fact that it's actually enjoyable to play?

>>8732432
Heh, I spotted the S C H I Z O.
It's meds time.

>smb2 usa Luigi has a unique sprite from Mario
>Smb3 Luigi is a palette swap
>smw Luigi has a unique sprite again
This feel strange to anybody else?

>>8731448
>Ignore SMW and SMB2 (USA) entirely.
You should be nailed to a cross

>>8732657
The original SMW Luigi was also a palette swap. The unique sprites were only in the All-Stars+World version.

>>8732691
Like Jesus of Nazareth Christ?

I'll order by gameplay feel:

Classic
>1. Super Mario Bros.
>2. Super Mario Land

It's own thing
>3. Super Mario Bros. USA

More fluid controls, world map
>4. Super Mario Bros. 3
>5. Super Mario World
>6. Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins

Lost Levels you should play if you have an itch for more classic SMB style. But I worry that you may get burned out if you try to play it immediately after SMB1 because it's so similar. Yeah it's "harder" but honestly I don't remember it being that difficult and kind still coasted through it. That was a long time though. Not a bad game but not better then SMB1 either, trickier but just more of the same.

Test

>>8729554
Do this because if you don't you will notice that the older games don't have certain features of the newer games and it's better to notice the newer features as they are presented

>>8732539
Smb2 usa is just a spritehack. But I agree it's much more enjoyable.

>>8729554
>Play them in production order, as following:

Super Mario Bros - NES
Super Mario Bros. 2 (JP) (Famicom)
Super Mario Bros. 3 (JP) (Famicom)
Super Mario Bros. 2 (US) (NES)
Super Mario World (US) (SNES)
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island (1995)

>>8729910
Why a patched rom? Doesn’t all stars save your spot when you get to a new world. Hell, Lost Levels even saves whenever you get to the next stage.

>>8732539
Its not enjoyable. The mechanics are jank and its not as challenging. SMB2 Japan filters a lot of children such as yourself.

Neither version of Mario 2 is very good and I usually just skip straight to 3.
