The Lost Levels is an exercise in Fake Difficulty, containing very difficult jumps, many enemies, problematic terrain, poisonous mushrooms, and, at worst, koopa jumps over walls or across pits. Most of it is senseless rehashing of elements in places where they don't belong (like amateur hacks). It's so difficult to beat that Nintendo of America replaced it with a wholly different game and give it a Mario theme, known as Super Mario Bros 2. It was later released as "The Lost Levels" in Super Mario All-Stars, and it's the only game in the set that saves your progress at individual levels rather than the start of worlds.

This movie, about 7 seconds faster than the previous, plays all levels, including the secret world 9, and extremely difficult A through D worlds.
