The offset of the Super Mario Bros. Trilogy.
Without explaining in great detail what most people already know, I will sum it up.
Nintendo had originally made another Super Mario Bros. 2 game, it was very similar to the first. It is actually the Lost levels on Super Mario All-Stars.
But Nintendo thought it being so similar to the first Super Mario Bros, so it wouldn't sell well.
Even then they wanted to give us gamers something new every time.
So did they create a completely new game? The answer is No. They bought an existing game called Doki Doki Panic. All they did was change the characters in that game to Nintendo characters, there you have Super Mario Bros. 2.

Super Mario Bros. 2 is a fun platformer. You go across 7 worlds. In each level you just try and get to the end and defeat a boss character in one piece. You have to jump to different platforms, and climb up and down ladders and beanstalks. There are also a variety of enemies. Unlike in other Mario games, you don't jump on them to destroy them. You can jump on top of them and then pick them up. Once you pick them up you can throw them at another enemy or just throw them into a hole. There are also roots all over the levels. Which you can pull out and use against enemies. You will have to be fast, use good timing, and even use bombs in this game.
You also get to choose between 4 characters. Mario, Luigi, Toad, and the Princess. Each has their own unique style. Mario is an all-around character. Luigi has this crazy flutter jump that makes him go high, but it's also a little hard to control. Toad can pull up roots very fast. The Princess can actually float for a period of time. Unlike the other two Super Mario Bros. games, this one is only 1 player.

Super Mario Bros. 2 may be a step out of the usually Mario type games, but it's still a fun classic. It's a fun game, period. It also gave use new Nintendo Characters that are still being used to this day, such as Shy-Guys and Birdo.
If you haven't played this game, then you have got to play it. It has been ported to the SNES and GBA.
