Just a random (almost 35 years too late) question because I've been replaying SMB2 on the Switch.

It seems like she's just objectively better in every way. I don't get why I would pick the others.

Oh wow, I had no idea. I didn't even own the manual back in the day because I played it on Mario All Stars on the SNES.

Where were you with this info in the mid 1990s?

    I thought this comment was a joke. lol

    For anyone else out of the loop, here's a screenshot from the linked manual above:

    (also, apparently his name is supposed to be Birdo, but it was misprinted in the manual as "Ostro". Ostros are the big flamingo looking things)
