Forums - Nintendo - Super Mario: The Lost Levels , Too Hard?

It wasn't all that bad on All-Stars, though I liked the Maze aspect of 8-3. I think I took it to about the C worlds one night while bored.

This is one of my favoritest games. It's insanely impossible, so each time you pass a level you want to celebrate. It's oldschool gaming difficulty at its finest!

It is hard but it's not hard hard. There were plenty of NES games that were harder.




It's hard. Does anyone have an infinite lives trick?


Its hard, and I'm loving it.

Only got to the start of 1-4 (or further with warping). Need to spend more time on it, but finding that with some practice I can breeze through levels that appeared hard earlier.

They made the right choice though. Otherwise I doubt we'd of gotten Doki Doki Panic in the US and Super Mario 2(US) is actually my favorite Mario on the NES.

Probably my favorite mario period.



It's pretty damn hard, and it gays you a bunch, but I love the game.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

Totally agree.  I beat lost levels on SMB All stars.  It was not that hard. 



I still play this on Super Mario All-stars occasionally. A couple mmoths ago a friend and I spent the whole night tearing (or should I say craawling and dieing) through all the secret levels in the game. (There are about 10 or so I can't remember the exact number) They numbered then oddly too, naming them A then A1 then B. Once you got to D they restarted it calling them AA-1 AA-2 and so forth.

We thought we were never going to get through all of them. It was certainly some hard shit. (I still think 6-2 of Ninja Guiden is WAAAAAAAAAAAY harder. I picked that one up again the other day and have been playing it till I get too frustrated to think. Then I go to sleep.



Hard? I would say so.

My brother absolutely owns at Super Mario Bros., a game I could never finish when I was a lad. It was a hoot to watch him play the Lost Levels, eventually tossing up the Wiimote, shouting "f*ck this!"
