In this week's Sunday Longplay (Ep 4), Peter finishes Super Mario Bros 2. It was all one sitting, but split into two videos! Whew! Well... It's an endurance challenge! Think of it as a full game walkthrough / complete gameplay - levels 1-1 through 7-2 and everything in between!
Come downstairs and have a seat with me on the couch right here in The Basement!
The goal of Sunday Longplay is to see a game played through to completion in a single video (usually somewhere near an hour) and listen to some casual solo commentary from Peter on a variety of topics (gaming, the game itself, life, etc). Let's see how this goes!
User PyroFalkon has a chill walkthrough over at GameFAQs. He also has a great LP of Simcity for PC on Youtube!

This game is radically different from the others in the series. Combat is entirely throwing-based, although you can throw things like other enemies. You can go left or right, unlike just going right in the first SMB game. There's no time limit, enabling you to explore the darkest corners without the danger of being rocked by the clock. There are no conventional powerups, because you've got a health bar, displayed in the top-left corner. Each time you're hit, you'll lose a point, though you can find hearts to recover yourself on your way.
Perhaps the biggest change of all is your ability to select one of four characters at the beginning of each stage.
MARIO: Mario is the plain vanilla character of the group. He has average speed, average picking speed, average jumping, et cetera. He's a nice choice for the first venture into a stage.
LUIGI: The jumper. His charged jump gets more air than Jordan did in his prime. However, he has little girly muscles, so if he's holding something, he'll take a rather noticeable cut in his speed and jumping. He's designed for levels that emphasize high platforms and gaps, not monsters.
TOAD: The carrier boy, but not of Fox-Die. He has supreme muscles, and he can pick up and chuck things at unbelievable rates. His speed and jumping are slightly lower than Mario's, but he's not affected at all by carrying things. He's the best in situations with a lot of enemies or levels where you need FAST digging power (and there are plenty of them).
PRINCESS PEACH TOADSTOOL: Peach needs to get to a gym. Her stick arms make her worthless in fights where throwing speed is of the essence. However, she has one unique ability that none of the others have. If you hold the jump button, her dress does the hovercraft thing and allows her to float for a time. It's not a limitless float by any means, but it will usually help you long enough to rescue yourself in times of crisis. If you come to a level that requires precision jumps and long gaps with few enemies, she's your man.
