Favorite SMB2 Character

Princess Toadstool exclusively. The rest are objectively trash in every conceivable way because they cannot fly.

Depends on level, but usually Princess for long-range jumping power. Luigi for some levels, Toad for others, Mario never.

Sort of related question: why does the Luigi-on-Birdo's Egg meme is based around Luigi specifically?

Why was that blue toad so fucking strong compared to all the others?

That's actually a good question. He does look the funniest on it, so maybe that's it.

>>3919540
Toad for that EXTREME SPEED
not sure if it was intentional but he runs even faster if he's holding an enemy or turnip.

Did you know?

Luigi was the best. I like being able to jump higher while having some monumentum.

>>3919659
Luigi feels like he's running on ice, and his jump is way too high. I liked him as I kid, but looking back, I don't know how the fuck I did it back then.

When I was a I kid, Luigi. Afterwards the Princess.

As a child I almost exclusively played as her and Luigi (probably .7 princess, .295 Luigi).

Now I sort of randomly choose one of the 4.

Toad, motherfucker.

Always Toad.

Damn right Anon. Recently played through the whole game with just Toad. I generally play platformers better the faster I can go, so he's an obvious choice for me. I'm worst with Luigi.

luigi for shortcuts, toad for speed

Super Princess Peach wasn't very good. Repetitive and slow as fuck.

>>3920067
being able to pick up stuff faster is a lifesaver later on

can't imagine using anybody but toad

>>3921192
>that pic
I associate that stage with her the most

>>3919540
Toad, by default. Unless a level starts giving me a rough time.

Can someone explain the Luigi floating on an egg meme to me?

>a game where you can actually play Luigi
>nobody plays Luigi

Fucking racists

>>3919635
Just speculating but maybe because its hardest to land on the eggs with Luigi because his jump is so floaty and weird.

i love big headed retardo footsie flappin dingle berry luigi i mean look at that huge gourd and them little footsies twiddling when he jumps!

>when you realize that Peach if floating on queefs

>>3921301
Not to mention it won't even let you beat it unless you collected ALL the stupid little Toads from every single level.

>>3919540
EVERYONE used Princess Toadstool most.

>>3919540
Toad, because he gets all the bitches.

>>3919547
Luigi can jump damn near as far as Princess Toadstool. There's that one stage in world 8 you can shortcut most of with either one of them right?

>>3919649
He SEEMS faster, but he's still running at the same pace...everyone else gets slowed down somewhat, so by comparison, yeah...Toad's faster, but not any more than normal.

Toad is the best. The princess slows down when picking things up, and Luigi slows down when jumping. Mario is good because he isn't slow. Toad is better because he is even less slow.

But yeah the princess is good too. If I had to stick with only one though, it would probably be Toad.

I've never understood Luigi. He feels so clumsy. I guess some people like him though.

>>3922638
He can jump way higher than anyone else which would be better if there were more vertical stages like in the original concept. He's also not as "please kill me" slow as Princess Toadstool picking things up. His clumsy jumping is something that can be adjusted for while the other three characters weaknesses are all hard limits.

>>3921301
I enjoyed it. It was different. I thought it was better than NSMB at the time, which was basically just Mario 1 with shittier physics and god-awful music.

>>3922583
>Toad's faster, but not any more than normal.
What?

Speed is a non-issue in this game so slower to run or pick up items doesn't detract from the princess being the superior option.

>>3923281
>Speed is a non-issue in this game
How exactly? I'd wager it's a relevant concept in nearly every platformer

>>3923286
There's no time limit, there's no obstacles or events that cause you to rush (like falling bridges, out-running lava), so you can take all the time in the world to wait for enemies to leave before you grab an item.

>>3921301
>Repetitive and slow as fuck.
The same could be said of every Nintendo game.

Don't fix it if it ain't broken: The Company

>>3919635
I think it's just because Luigi has the most memorable personality, being either the quirky weird underrated one or the cowardly overlooked one who bad shit always happens to.

The obvious choice is peach, she is undeniable the objective best character.
However I love SMB2 and replay it often, making peach boring, like a kind of 'easy mode'. The next obvious choice would be luigi due to his meme prestige, but I like toad due to his underdog status, you know?
Fuck Mario, balanced builds are for losers

>>3923121
To clarify:

As we have all noticed, everyone has a speed of picking things up, from Peach's 'please kill me' speed to Toad's 'back atcha, motherfucker' speed.
Similarly, everyone's speed is affected when carrying something as well: Peach is the slowest when carrying something, and Toad is the fastest.
HOWEVER: everyone has the same speed when they are empty handed. So while Toad may SEEM faster in general, he's really not...he's just not effected by item weight like the others.

Used Peach for a couple of levels.

Toadstool

>>3919540
Toad is canon

>>3927572
Its a dream, you dip.

As a kid, Toad and Princess. As an adult, I rotate through the cast on every stage so that they're all thanked during the parade at the end.

>>3927572
Is this elaborated on in some Mario RPG?

Luigi, and only luigi.

Mario is boring, toad feels like shit to me, and peach is easy mode.

>>3919635
because the meme was just

~luigi floating on an egg over the sea~

I never actually played this until the GBA version, so those voices are stuck in my head.

>>3922163
Yes.

As a kid I always played as the princess and never thought twice about it because of her floating power. Eventually I remembered that there were other characters and it felt like a whole new game.

Toad for World 1 and 2, Princess and Mario for the rest of the game.
