    an interesting thing you could do for a special video is a “first appearance” video where you show of the first ever appearance of everything in the series like first goomba appearance or first brick stuff like that! it would be a very long video but would be a great homage to mario

    • @fabrizioart1928
      @fabrizioart1928 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      You can make more videos by categorizing by type, like power ups, enemies, etc, and limiting length by only counting things that appeared at least twice. That can be capped off by a video about stuff that only appeared once.

    By far the most unique level in SM64 is Big Boo's Haunt as it's the only one asides from the courtyard that has Boos, is very different to other levels design wise (the sky for example) and even has not one, but two unique music tracks. I honestly can't think of any level more unique than that one in SM64

    For nsmb2, one level I find really unique is 2-2 because I like the unique, tower like platforms that are only in that level. I also like 3-gh for it's unique ghost walls that are only in that level. There's also 6-5 for its unique ghostly aesthetic.

    4:40 They're not bonus stages. Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels is the original Super Mario Bros 2, as released in Japan. The game was deemed too hard for the American public and too similar visually, so Nintendo picked an already existing game (Doki Doki Panic), changed a couple things here and there, added characters, and done: Super Mario Bros 2 for America and Europe.
