Super Mario Land 2 - 6 Golden Coins (formerly formatted as Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins) is a platforming game for the Game Boy first released in 1992 and later for the Nintendo 3DS's Virtual Console in 2011 and the Nintendo Switch's Game Boy - Nintendo Classics service as one of its launch titles in 2023. The Virtual Console release requires 44 blocks (5.6 MB) of memory to be installed. This sequel to Super Mario Land is the seventh entry in the Super Mario series and also marks the debut of Mario's self-proclaimed arch rival Wario, who would later become a recurring character in the Mario franchise as well as a protagonist in his own series. Like its predecessor, it received a Player's Choice and was produced by the late Gunpei Yokoi rather than the Super Mario franchise creator Shigeru Miyamoto, who was not involved in the development of this game. It is notable for having been the last original side-scrolling Super Mario game until 2006's New Super Mario Bros., 13½ years later. Like Super Mario Land, this game was initially excluded from the main Super Mario series by Nintendo, but went on to be included alongside the more traditional games for the 30th anniversary of Super Mario Bros.
