Super Mario Bros 2 was released for the Famicom Disk System in Japan in 1986. It is the sequel to the original Super Mario Bros. game and is known as “The Lost Levels” in the United States. The game was not released in the US until 1993 as part of the Super Mario All-Stars collection for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System.
It was the number one selling Famicom game released in 1986, selling approximately 2,650,000 copies in its lifetime.

The reason for the different versions is that the original Japanese Super Mario Bros 2 was considered too difficult and similar to the first game for a Western audience.
The Japanese Super Mario Bros 2 is basically Super Mario Bros with the difficulty cranked to 11. The expanded space provided by the disk format allowed for upgraded graphics, longer and more complex levels, several new gimmicks, and a total of 13 worlds... but overall, its graphics and music don't do it favors in distinguishing it from its predecessor.
