The Japanese version of Super Mario Bros. 2 (Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels), only available on the Famicom Disk System (until the Super Mario All-Stars release), was deemed too hard for international players at the time it was released in 1986:

Yume Kojou: Doki Doki Panic (English: Dream Factory: Heartbeat Panic), the Japanese Famicom Disk System game that would become the international version of Super Mario Bros. 2. Doki Doki Panic was meant to be a tie-in with the Dream Factory '87 event on Fuji TV, and was created by the same team as both versions of Super Mario Bros. 2:

The American Super Mario Bros. 2 was re-released on Game Boy Advance as "Super Mario Advance" along with the original Mario Bros. arcade game.

Super Mario Advance was an upgraded version of Super Mario Bros. 2/Super Mario USA that was released as the launch title for the Game Boy Advance. The game was given a score counter, one of the things not found in the original game.

I always play as Princess Peach only because she can stay airborne longer than the others!
