Super Princess Peach

I think SMB was probably the hardest of all the Mario platformers.

:wtf:

The original was not that hard imo but as a child I remember certain parts of 3 driving me insane (world 7), 2 had those moments as well.

There's this one long jump in world 8 where you land on this one block that was pretty tough. The hammer bros were a pain too. That's about it though.

That's still more difficult than the others. SMB at least gave you a slim chance of getting a game over (unless you did the 99 lives trick), but Mario 3, Mario World and Yoshi's Island are all stupidly easy.

And those are the three best ones.

Fixed :)

You're right. But it's also not even fun to play.

The first is the only one i get a game over screen in any more. How has the series gotten more difficult?

Sunshine was difficult in some parts. Maybe Takashi Tezuka was trying to say that he didn't want the next Mario game to be like Super Mario Sunshine. It's hard to tell exactly what they mean in some of these interviews, especially when they are mistranslated (not saying this one was mistranslated, but it happens).

Sunshine and 64 are not the same series. They are not Super Mario Bros in 3D. They are completely different games with Mario characters in them.
