@snailwithinternetaccess at the end of world 1's castle, you see him actually burning away in the lava (turning into dry bowser) right before moving to world 2. Sure he comes back later, but if you're a kid managing to get to that bossfight and seeing Bowser actually struggling on the lava (which the games didn't do and never continued after NSMB 1) when he often shrugged off things in previous titles is quite the shakeup and shocker.

13:29 If anyone wants a reason as to why that happens, in a nutshell, because bowser throws so many hammers and there being too many active hitboxes (bowser,lava bubbles, fire breath, other hammers) some hammers themselves don't have hit boxes so you can jump past them. Its a common trick in speed running!
Fun fact about 9-1, 9-2, and 9-3: they're actually based on the minus level glitch from the first game. That's why there's a disturbing lack of enemies.

This gets uploaded the same day I learned Bowser had a brother colored blue in the Family Computer Disk System, appearing in world 8-4 and 9-3, he has full hammer and fire breath, but the lost levels recolored him green again
I think the hammer and fire breath is a reference to mythology from the Far East but please inform me of what the resemblance to a mythological creature from Asia in the description of this comment.
There's also an unused blue palette of Bowser in All-Stars' code, suggesting that Bowser's Brother was to be represented in his original color instead of being the same sprite as regular Bowser.
A lot of people mentioned the Famicom version's blue fake Bowser in the comments, but here's another odd change. In the Famicom version, World D-4's Bowsers are both fake, and they're both Spinies. That's why they don't spew fire.
real talk, Bowser lost his touch. We need a *S h a k e u p* on the typical peach-napping plot of each game imo Also that hitbox on 4-4 is extreme w a c k, Devs should've left it below the bridge(Or the wall, since nobody is gonna fireball the wall out of sheer curiosity). tldr; good video, keep up the good work for 2020 my dude
Y'know, for how good of a compilation Super Mario All-Stars is, the last time we've seen Nintendo directly acknowledge the title was (if I recall right) the 25th Anniversary rerelease on the Wii; Closest we've got elsewhere are the Super Mario Advance titles, and the Mushroom Kingdom II stage from Melee and Ultimate, both indirectly; The latter doesn't even use the All-Stars rendition of the music.
Wow, can't you just imagine, someone as cold-hearted as Mario, he just murdered a king, without turning back watching him melt. Think Peach is gonna be happy living with this psycho
Something else interesting to note is that in the original Famicom version of Lost Levels, the first Bowser you encounter in 8-4 and D-4 has a different color pallet...and is actually a different character altogether, quite literally being Bowser's equivalent to Luigi. Referred to as Blue Bowser by the game's manual, he's apparently Bowser's brother? He's never since appeared in any game whatsoever. I guess he didn't take too kindly to being called "Blue Bowser" of all things...
Maybe it's a reference to Bowser and Blue. I think they were musicians of some kind, so if I'm right then the reference wouldn't suprise me given the naming of the Koopalings in Super Mario Bros. 3.
14:31 these toads have always confused me. Are they conjoined twins? Oh, and according to the original SMB2’s manual, the first bowser in 8-4 is actually bowser’s brother. He was blue in the original game to make them more distinct.
In 9-3, there's a hole in the ceiling right underneath where the pipe is, and you can jump on top of the ceiling from the left and just run past Bowser cause the screen doesn't lock like 7-4 or C-4 due to there being a flagpole instead of an axe.
Yo guys, true story, I was playing Mario Lost Levels in All Stars (on the Wii because I'm poor). I was at world 7-4 at the King Koopa fight, he was throwin' hammers like (pew, pew, pew) and I was getting ready to jump. I took the leap, and he started throwing hammers. Then, a miracle happened. I pressed A at the perfect frequency to land in between the hammers and finish the fight! Ok, basically it was 13:25, but... sigh...
Interesting, I've never knew there was more to these battles than what you see in the surface level, it just looked like more or less RNG with some different elements to make things easier or harder, but it's actually surprisingly deeper than it looks like. Even though it can be tedious when done excessively and it's generally not too great by itself, but there's something exhilarating about a non-pattern based boss in a game like this, as the alternatives in a lot of later Mario games is having a basic pattern that makes the boss essentially "free". Sure, a pattern based boss is more fair, but the problem is that later Mario games rarely have bosses that provide challenge, which makes the fairness feel like a moot point, as they just feel like beefed-up regular enemies than proper bosses. Not to say that there are no genuinely fun and challenging Mario bosses, SML2 has some fun bosses that actually require effort to beat, nothing really hard, but at least you have to try.
if nintendo can put hammer bros in the third/fourth level of their game, then they can give bowser hammers again not too much to ask, just adding some actual challenge to reaching the button/axe!
I came up with an idea in this game. Instead of facing the Bowser which you normally do, you face his stronger counter-part, Dry Bowser. Thought it would be fitting to give him an alternative design after this idea has been done in other games.
The Bowsers in the levels past World 8 are easier for a good reason. In the original NES cart, you only had one life to get through the extra levels! It makes the Bowsers a little more intimidating when you can’t die once to any of them.

According to the manual, the first "real" Bowsers in 8-4, 9-3 and D-4 are Bowser's brother. He is colored blue in the famicom version.
It's so bizarre that they didn't keep that consistent in the All Stars version. I can't imagine a recolor would have been that hard to code in.
That’s probably not canon
Blue Bowser is referenced in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, being his 8th alt. There's even a tip that calls it 'False Bowser' I believe.
RedCherry Goggles Or it could be a reference to Dark Bowser, although it has been stated that the blue color is for Fake Bowser. So this comment is useless but I wanted to post this because someone would have eventually.
@@anenigma8378 I don't know if the tip is in Ultimate but it was in the Wii U version according to the wiki I read on Bowser's Brother.

Mario 2 Japan/Lost Levels made me realize: Does Peach actually get kidnapped twice in the same game?

13:40 Lucky for you there is something similar made by Level Up
Check out the enclosed instruction book
(Add any hints to help lost marios)
This is one of those pull the hair out your head games.
5:25 I think bowser had too much Taco bell
Or Tonio's food
Oh, I wanted an analysis interface with Bowser like the ones you do in these videos. I love those.
A good way to tell Bowser is almost defeated is if he sweats (those small white circles over his head when you hit him 4 times).
From what I know that Bowser you face first in 8-4 is supposed to be his brother.
13:35 I jumped through his hammers once. When I came out alive, my heart stopped for a second. The hitboxes were on my side for once.
Bowser be like “Hammer Time”
Fun fact: The world 8 first bowser is actually blue in the NES version. He's known as "bowser's brother".
There's also an unused blue palette of Bowser in All-Stars' code, suggesting that Bowser's Brother was to be represented in his original color instead of being the same sprite as regular Bowser.
