This SMB2 port practically gives you a ton of lives if you're playing it correctly. Not the same with the original; the original was unforgiving in terms of lives unless you took advantage of the slot machine.

Same goes with Hearts. I recall you had to take down a slew of enemies before being rewarded with this floating smidgen of health. With the port, just KO two enemies in a row and you get one. Which is all the time.

Perception of difficulty sure has changed, huh?
