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.

''Super Mario Bros. 2'' came about after [[Nintendo]] of America deemed ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels'' too difficult for Western audiences,<ref>McLaughlin, Rus. (September 13, 2010) [https://www.ign.com/articles/2010/09/14/ign-presents-the-history-of-super-mario-bros?page=3 IGN Presents: The History of ''Super Mario Bros.''] ''IGN''. Retrieved August 2, 2017.</ref> which led Nintendo to redevelop the [[Family Computer Disk System]] game ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'' into a ''Super Mario Bros.'' game for the international release. After its release, the game became a commercial success, and eventually the game became well received enough that it was also released in Japan. After performing well both critically and commercially, ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' has been rereleased as one of the four games featured in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'', as well as having its own [[reissue|remake]] in ''[[Super Mario Advance]]''. Many enemies introduced in ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' have become common recurring enemies in the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise, such as [[Bob-omb|Bob-Omb]]s, [[Pokey]]s, [[Shy Guy|Shyguy]]s, and more, while the gameplay mechanic of picking up various items and tossing them has been reused in several later games.

Defeated enemies and Birdo can re-spawn if the player runs one screen away from the area where they normally appear and return, which may allow the player to defeat the enemies again in order to regain health if necessary; this still occurs in later releases (except ''Super Mario Advance''), but a defeated Birdo does not reappear unless the player completely leaves and re-enters the areas where Birdo is fought.

*On the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] / [[Family Computer|Famicom]], all sprites are limited to three colors per sprite.
