  • The Power Glove, IT'S SO BAD! The catch phrase of this controller could not be more on point. It is a novelty, and it almost works, sometimes. But man the things about it that don't work make it a nightmare, especially when trying to beat arguably the hardest Super Mario Bros. game!

    I love how excited he gets whenever he accidently does something really cool, and how often it happens. Perhaps that is the true power of the power glove, it's almost impossible to use, but sometimes, just sometimes, it allows for some jank awesomeness.

    8:48 I think I've finally come to understand the power glove. It was never intended to be a controller that mere mortals use, for such power beyond our comprehension could never be controlled. Instead, it is called the controller because it uses the human body to accomplish its goals, far beyond our human understanding, within the video game. Thank you for this kosmic enlightenment lol.

VS. has 5 arranged levels and 6 from The Lost Levels. All Night Nippon has no arranged levels but 9 from The Lost Levels. C-3 and C-4 in The Lost Levels are harder versions of 7-3 and 7-4 respectively. 7-3 and 8-3 are C-3 and C-4 respectively in All Night Nippon.
