One of the central game mechanics that differentiates ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' from other ''Super Mario'' games is that players can select four characters—[[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Toad]], or [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]]—and each of these characters has their unique gameplay mechanics, offering advantages and disadvantages in their stats. Another distinction is that players cannot defeat enemies by [[stomp]]ing on them; players need to either toss items at enemies or pick up and toss enemies at each other to defeat them. | One of the central game mechanics that differentiates ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' from other ''Super Mario'' games is that players can select four characters—[[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Toad]], or [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]]—and each of these characters has their unique gameplay mechanics, offering advantages and disadvantages in their stats.
