Episode 161
Super Mario Land 2 was the highly anticipated sequel to one of the hottest games for the original Game Boy! It's not just one of Mario's most unique adventures, but it's also the debut of one of Nintendo's most popular characters - Wario!
Now with a battery to save your game, Super Mario Land 2 was much bigger than the original, and you could explore the six worlds in any order! With bigger character sprites and secret exits to find, this portable version of Mario was finally up to par with the Mario games on home consoles.
So how did this game get made, and who created Wario? In today's episode we'll find out and then we'll dive deep into the gameplay where we'll learn:
* The best strategies for ALL 32 levels!
* Where to find all 6 SECRET EXITS!
* The Bubble Glitch - Take the bubble to other Stages!
* The secret of hidden SHORTCUTS!
* MAPS for all Levels!
* How to get 99 Lives!
* The Credits Warp - Warp to the end of the game!
