'''''Super Mario Bros. 2''''' (known as '''''Super Mario USA''''' in Japanese, and '''''Super Mario 2''''' in ''[[Super Mario Advance]]'') is the second game in the ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' series outside Japan. It is a 2D [[Genre#Platform|platforming]] game originally released for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] in North America on October 9, 1988. In the years that followed, it has been ported to many other systems, including a release on the [[Wii]]'s [[Virtual Console#Wii|Virtual Console]] in 2007, the [[Nintendo 3DS]]'s [[Virtual Console#Nintendo 3DS|Virtual Console]] in 2012, and the [[Wii U]]'s [[Virtual Console#Wii U|Virtual Console]] in 2013. As a result of Japan already having a ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' (known in English as ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]''), the game did not make its debut in the country until after the release of ''[[Super Mario World]]'', on September 14, 1992, making it Japan's fifth installment of the series. | '''''Super Mario Bros. 2''''' (known as '''''Super Mario USA''''' in Japanese, and '''''Super Mario 2''''' in ''[[Super Mario Advance]]'') is the super awesome second game in the ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' series outside Japan.

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 Toadstool – and each of these characters have their unique gameplay mechanics, offering advantages and disadvantages in their stats. Another distinction is that players cannot defeat enemies by stomping 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 Toadstool – and each of these characters have their unique gameplay mechanics, offering advantages and disadvantages in their stats.
