Nothing new to me, I always thought it was way inferior than SMB3. And yeah, I actually think the linear, action-oriented Sonic the Hedgehog is a better game overall.





The first 4 sonic games ( 1 CD 2 3&K) are collectively better than first 4 Mario games. Sonic got better each game while Mario kept falling slightly then coming back. SMB>SMB2 ( any version)

SMB 3 beats all of the pretty much, including the Sonic games.  SMB 2 is actually another game adopted to Mario.  Lost Levels is the original SMB2.  


SMB2 is really Doki Doki Panic. I aready alluded to that by say (any version). And no while SMB3 is definitely the defacto Mario classic it cannot stop Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Its okay though, most of the SNES/SEGA platformers cant.

Matching up the real 2nd Super Mario game from 1988 to the 3rd and 4th entry of a 16-bit series from 1994? don't you think that's a little bit unfair?


I do that because of my admiration for the classic Mario series. I believe thst even when being a generation behind Mario 1 through 3 have power to stand up agaisnt platformers from future gens. SMB series is better than nearly every plaformer on SNES/SEGA. Mega Man also shares this trait too. So yes I think its fair.
