Super Mario Brothers released this “All-Stars” pack for the SNES a long time ago; it has Super Mario Bros, Super Mario 2, Super Mario 3, Super Mario World, and the Lost Levels. This allows a player to quickly do side-by-side comparisons on all of the games. All of these games feature running, jumping, and gathering things like lives, and power-ups. The second game is a stark departure from the rest; the enemies, environment, and level design have much different properties. In SM1, 3, LL and World, enemies are goombas and koopas, led by Bowser. But in SM2, the enemies are bird things, shy guys, and bosses like Birdo. And some of the mechanics are different; in SM2, Mario looks for floating hearts and potions, and has no inventory to manage. By contrast, the rest of the games have nothing to do with potions and hearts; instead, players collect points and coins. Also, the level design in SM2 involves the finding of keys, climbing vines, and alternate worlds that come from the potions. In the other games, these mechanics are only for secrets, not for completing levels themselves.
