Which Super Mario Bros. 2 do you guys like more. Real or Fake Version?

Just wanted to know which of the Mario Bros 2 do you guys here like the most. I never hear from other people which versions they enjoy.

Real Version

Fake Version

prolly the actual sm2 (ie the "lost levels") it was a lot harder than smb1 and there was no real graphical improvement, but it was a challenge and fun. the US version of smb2 didn't really feel like smb and i found out later that was because it wasn't smb, it was doki doki panic.

Lost Levels, never liked the other one...

As excellent as Lost Levels was, I like the "fake" 2 more. The game is actually pretty awesome if you get used to it's changes. the level design is awesome, the art is great, the bosses excellent, the game is definitely underrated.

The original. I hated Super Mario USA.

Both of them are pretty good, but the Japanese version is superior. Feels and plays more like Super Mario.

I 100% prefer SMB USA. Lost levels seemed more like Super Mario Bros. Master Quest then an actual sequel. Plus, I really like quirky sense of the USA version, and it's nice to have a different ending boss.

Doki doki panic version. The real one was just SMB1 if it was so difficult it was unfun. I downloaded the lost levels on the virtual console and I didn't get far. It was so frustrating that it felt like some sort of romhack.

I never played the real SMB2. Only the US version. Whats the real one like?

It looks and plays like the orginal, but you could play as Luigi as player 1, and for the first time, he was different from Mario. There were warps that would take you back to the begining, and some that just take you back a few worlds. There was also poison mushrooms for the first time. It had a post game thing too, where the was worlds 1-8 and then A,B,C and D, I think. It had a ton of differences that most people over looked just because they are too busy crying over it being too harder than the first game.

I don't think Doki Doki Panic! is a good game, with or without Mario.

I wasn't crazy about either game, but I still prefer the fake version to the real version (lost levels).
