This one is weird too. All the sprites are bigger, so Mario runs slower to compensate. This might be the only real sequel Mario game. The story is that while Mario was fucking around in the last game, his private island (🤔), which has a giant robot of himself (🤔), was taken over by Wario. There's lore too; Wario and Mario were rivals from childhood, and Wario is jealous of Mario. No princess, no brother, no Bowser. Mario is just out to kick Wario's ass. There's even a reference to Friday the 13th's Jason... in a Mario game
