Ep. 40 - The Super Mario Super Sequel | The Terrible Gamers Podcast

When Super Mario Bros. became a global sensation, Nintendo followed it up with two wildly different sequels—but which one is the true successor? In this episode of The Terrible Gamers Podcast, hosts Kevin and Kyle debate the merits of Super Mario Bros. 2 (USA) and Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels to determine which game truly carries the torch of the original NES classic.

Did Nintendo make the right call by giving Western players a completely different Mario sequel, or should we have received the brutally difficult Lost Levels like Japan? We dive into the history of Super Mario, how Doki Doki Panic became Mario 2, and whether Mario’s most infamous sequel split was good for gaming.

If you're a fan of retro video games, classic Nintendo, and Mario’s 8-bit adventures, this episode is packed with nostalgia, gaming history, and a heated debate!

🔥 Which Super Mario sequel do YOU think is better? Let us know in the comments!
