A mod for Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins
Super Mario Land 2 DX is a color hack for Super Mario Land 2 in the same vein as Link’s Awakening DX. It adds color, lets you play with Luigi (with different physics) and removes the lag.

A superior sequel. The open-ended world structure combined with quick levels and unique themes makes this a fresh and fun experience. This game further affirms my belief that Mario games are much better when their stages are short. My only 2 gripes is that Mario feels a bit floaty, and every boss is too straightforward.
Second verse, same as the first! It's Mario Land 2, a game I already feel really strongly about, but now in colour and with Luigi! The carrot powerup is still busted, the final level is still whack, but it's the definitive version of what's probably the best Game Boy platformer, and one of the best 2D Mario adventures for my money.
it's great! unfortunately, not the best 2D mario. the colors added are fantastic, so props to the fan team.
O jogo original do Game Boy refeito para GBC, e ficou muito bom, um dos melhores plataformas deste console sem dúvidas, vale a pena experimentar o trabalho feito por estes fãs.
I won't go into detail as much as I did with Super Mario Land 2 original, but I will say this game is the definitive version of Super Mario Land 2.
The creators of this color palette remix really did their research when it came to adding a nice accurate color palette to the bosses keeping them consistent with the comic adaption colors.
The game also fixes the "1-UP Hearts" back to the Green Mushrooms, since now that the game has been remade in color, the creators of this remix DX version now allows for the Mushrooms to be distinct.
Another thing the game does is fix Fire Mario so that he doesn't have a weird flower on his head when he becomes Fire Mario (though in the original they did this because original Gameboy was Black and White/Vomit Green on Grass Green, so there was no way of changing Mario's color palette to indicate when he obtained the fire flower, so instead they put a feather on his hat to represent that)
They added a nice color palette to the new power ups as well as adding reasonable and corresponding color palettes to the different Zones, like the Turtle Zone consisting of Blues because of underwater, or Pumpkin Zone Featuring Dark Blues, Yellow, and Black to indicate a Haunted house.
While using bright colors for Macro Zone, Mario Zone, and Tree Zone. Also for Space Zone, just using White and Black with little bits of color was perfect since it was generally in space and seeing Space Suit Mario wearing a white astronaut suit with his red hat was funny. Tatanga also retained his accurate weird purple imp colors which is cool to see.
Wario here is obviously in color however he retains his modern color palette of Purple suspenders and green shoes as opposed to his classic "MARIO VS WARIO COMIC" color palette, which is actually Wario Wearing Pinkish suspenders with Black/Grey shoes. 1 thing to note about Classic Wario and Modern Wario, while they are both egotistical, Classic Wario seemed to have a more wacky demeanor since he has a lazy eye, however the modern iteration makes him more confident and big headed.
Overall this DX version is in my opinion the definitive version to play Super Mario Land 2 since it gives a nice color palette that allows for relation with that of the NES and SUPER NES GAMES. If you feel like you could never really get into the idea of playing Super Mario Land 1, 2, and Wario Land: SUPER MARIO LAND 3 because of the lack of colors, I highly recommend these DX remixes, though if colors aren't your style play the original black and white versions.
Anyway I gave the original 4 stars, I'm giving DX 4.5 because it's really appealing to the eyes. I highly recommend SUPER MARIO LAND 2: 6 GOLDEN COINS DX! Thanks for reading!

Very good job on adding colour to this classic game. The world design of this game feels much more inspired than most other mario games and this extends to enemy design and boss fights. The final level has a very steep difficulty in comparison to the rest of the game which feels very strange. That being said this is a phenomenal and short platformer which is significantly better than the first mario land that I would highly recommend to anyone who enjoys the genre.
