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.

That's always been my feeling too. I think Mario can run faster, and Luigi can jump a little higher, but Peach just controls better. Who knows what kind of maniac would choose Toad.

Toad can dig / lift the fastest, and gets a huge run speed boost when carrying enemies, making him the speed runner’s choice in many levels.

Toad pulls roots faster, and he's my favorite

Thanks for the root-cause analysis.

Glad to have found you.

You know that ghost that chases you when you look away from them? That guy.

But seriously, toad's special power is how fast he can dig and throw. Toad is max DPS. Toad is OP.

Ok, I just tried playing as toad. I think you've recruited me.

I always played him for his speed and throwing and carrying ability like others have said.

I only used Peach on levels where floating was really helpful and I didn’t have to throw anything at a boss.

I pick Toad quite a lot. He's a fast little goober.
