Key characters

Small Mario in the original Game Boy release.
Playable castle owner

Mario

Mario crosses the island to recover the six Golden Coins. His ordinary run and jump remain useful throughout, while larger forms, fireballs and floating ears give him different ways to solve the same obstacle.

Wario in the original Game Boy release.
Castle usurper and final opponent

Wario

Wario has occupied Mario’s castle and placed the island’s inhabitants under his spell. The final encounter uses normal, bunny and fire-powered phases, making patient timing more useful than repeated contact with his body.

Tatanga in the original Super Mario Land 2.
Space Zone boss

Tatanga

Tatanga returns as the guard of Space Zone’s Golden Coin. Mario meets him in a setting with altered movement, so learning to steer and wait for an opening helps before attempting the boss encounter.

Pumpkin Zone boss

Witch

The Witch guards the coin at the end of Pumpkin Zone. Her cauldrons and magical attacks make the room a positioning challenge: watch the next safe opening instead of chasing her through every hazard.
