It was just like how different Super Mario Bros. 2 was from the others.......I guess its more weird than anything)
Also, on that note, Super Mario Bros. 2 was actually what we know as Super Mario Bros.:The Lost Levels, which was originally only released in Japan. But what we know as Super Mario Bros. 2 was originally a completely different game created by director Kensuke Tanabe called 'Yume Kojo: Doki Doki Panic'. When game testers found the original SMB 2(The Lost Levels) to be too difficult, Tanabe and Nintendo decided to change the characters of Yume Kojo in characters from the Mario universe! If Nintendo and Tanabe would have never done this, lots of familiar aspects of the game may have never been, such the Shyguys, Bob-ombs, Birdo, Pokey the cactus, Marios ability to throw stuff, and the fact that Luigi is taller than Mario.........crazy stuff,man!!!!

The rudementary style of play was really exceptional and to this day offers something that modern games cant seem to capture. Link to the past is great, but it doesnt have that same open world feeling that Zelda 1 and 2 have. Perhaps I'm on to something, perhaps it's nostalgia goggles...
13 is my lucky number!!! (most people find that odd)
