I am trying my luck once again with Super Mario Land 2 - Six Golden Coins. So far I never managed to beat it. It has savegames, and in theory plenty of opportunity to gain extra lives, but something about the slippery movement of Mario rubs me the wrong way. I like the Wario games much more. And even though I haven’t beaten Sonic on the GameGear either, I came further to the finish line.

Mario is in a jelly level. Coins at the top.

    SML2 is pretty easy but the floaty/slipperiness of Mario does take some getting used too. I love it for the music. Especially in space zone!

    I managed to beat the tree zone and get the first coin. Cost me way too many lives but managed to win 20 lives in the fruit machine.

    The first coin is inserted into the portal. 5 empty sockets surround the stone door labeled Mario Land 2

        After 15 or so lives I managed to beat the Mario Zone. Got a bit unlucky at the lottery. Drew witches…

        Two golden coins are now in the portal. Four sockets empty.

          Halloween is coming soon, so I managed to beat the pumpkin zone for the third coin. The witch was a rather easy boss.

          The pumpkin zone map shows graveyards, ghosts and coffins.

            Fourth coin is go! Managed to beat the rat boss in Macro Zone. Easiest stage so far.

              Now at the boss level in the Turtle Zone. So far the game got easier. I think it means I am getting the hang of it. Also, now I have 999 coins and can try to get the BIG prize.

                I managed to get to the secret level in Turtle Zone. I must admit it doesn’t seem that worthwhile…

                  Star Zone boss is my personal nemesis. I just can’t seem to beat him. I will have to farm some lives soon…

                @root42@chaos.social In my opinion, it is the easiest but also graphically the most beautiful part of the Super Mario Land series.
