I decided to record all of Super Mario USA's impact on Mario series.
Character traits introduced to the series:
* Mario's overweight form
* Luigi's tall form
* Luigi's flutter-kick and slippery control
* Peach's floating abilities
Recurring characters introduced to the series:
* Bob-omb
* Shy Guy
* Pokey
* Birdo
Features introduced to the series:
* Multiple playable characters besides Mario and Luigi
* Differentiated character abilities
* The ability to backtrack in levels
* No time limits
Just try and name one Mario game that's had that many traits inherited by future titles in the series that isn't Super Mario USA. Only the original can claim to have had a similar impact, and it started the series.
Sky Render - Sanity is for the weak.
