FDS Super Mario Bros. 2 "warps, Mario" by HappyLee in 08:04.83


 Watch
Mario has eaten too many poisonous mushrooms and as a result, decided to go on a furious killing spree. In this berserker state he has also gained the new secret ability to walk through walls at will.
Wondering how some tricks work? Information is available at Super Mario Bros. Tricks page.
This movie is 27 frames faster than the previous version due to new improvements in 1-2 and 8-4.
Watch this run being played back on a real console.
This is the real Super Mario Bros 2. It was never officially released in the USA and Europe. It was later ported to SNES, and released as "Lost Levels" on Super Mario All-stars, which we have a warpless Mario run of.
FDS means Famicom Disk System. It was a Japanese disk-unit version of the NES.

FDS Super Mario Bros. 2 "warps, Luigi" by HappyLee & KFCMARIO in 08:13.77

Luigi glitching through the wall.
Watch
This is a TAS of the Japanese Super Mario Bros. 2, a.k.a. 'The Lost Levels', using Mario's brother Luigi. He jumps higher than Mario, but acts slower in many ways. However, the movie is in no way worse than the Mario version - some new creative solutions have been found.
This movie uses warps. For a warpless version, see [4389] SNES Super Mario All-Stars: The Lost Levels "warpless, Luigi" by DaSmileKat in 34:45.63.
This is an 110 frame improvement over the previous movie by Phil.

FDS Super Mario Bros. 2 "all items, Mario" by Kzwbz, Argentu-M & Endless Wind in 23:33.12


 Watch
Super Mario Bros. 2 is the infamous sequel to Super Mario Bros. that was released only in Japan for the Famicom Disk System. Considered too difficult and too similar to the original game, it was skipped over for localization in favor of making Doki Doki Panic into the actual Super Mario Bros. 2 for the NES. This game would later be remade in Super Mario All-Stars as Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels.
Kzwbz, Argentu-M, and Endless Wind collaborate to create a run that collects every item in Worlds 1-8 except for Poison Mushrooms as fast as possible. World 9 is not played as it does not contain any items, and Worlds A-D are not played as that requires completing the game eight times in a row to unlock.

For this run, web2000 and Kzwbz collaborate to complete every level in the game, including Worlds 9, A, B, C, and D, which are usually unlocked after completing the game multiple times. This run begins after having fulfilled the requirements for unlocking Worlds A to D. Multiple well-known Super Mario Bros. glitches are performed to shave off as much time as possible, along with other tricks. For further details, you can read the authors' notes here.
