Does this game counts as a true Mario game because during my Mario game marathon i skipped this one and finished the Japanese Mario 2 instead now i just need to finish Mario World to have completed all the Mario platformers but then i thought about this game since its different from the others i consider it the black sheep of the series should i play it? if i do i will finish the game with just Peach
>>12727137There are two Mario 2s. Simple as!You can substitute with Doki Doki Panic if you want something different. It's an honorary Mario game and allegedly had more of the Mario team behind it than SMB2J.
>>12727137It's a reskin, but it had a ton of work by the mario team to make it into a mario game. I count it. It's also just fun, so you shouldn't be skipping it anyway
>>12727137lool this guy doesn't did you know
>>12727151You also don't gotta play the whole game with each character, so SMB2U has QoL improvements going for it.
>>12727141>>12727151Then is not a true Mario game
>>12727725Started development as one in preproduction, then they rebranded as development proceeded for Fuji TV tie-in, then was restored back to being a Mario game in postproduction.
It's as legit as transgenderism.
>>12727137>i consider it the black sheep of the seriesThen you're a retard and it doesn't really matter what you do.
>>12727137It's not a real Mario game but that has nothing to do with it being a reskin. Mario is revealed to be dreaming at the end, which means it did not take place and therefore does not exist.
