I've never beaten the original Super Mario Bros. 2 despite owning multiple variations of it. I've finally remedied that through NSO. All in all, I wouldn't call it my favorite 2d Mario, but the music's great, it's unique compared to other 2d Mario, and the choice of voice acting was odd but welcome. It was a great time for the many fans of Mario. I can see how a lot of inspiration for future games was derived from here.
