jumping mechanics

[Lasman]

hey guys,
maybe I'm picky, but doesn't a jump on the head of an enemy (goomba, turtle or whatever), while holding the 'jump'-key, make mario bounce higher than a jump-kill without holding the key.
Like I said, I don't wanna nit-pick and the whole game is just amazing, the idea and implementation are brilliant, but I think this "feature" is an important part of SMB.

Nope, not in Super Mario Bros.
Only on SMB3 and later games

oh, alright, my bad.. thanks for the info

Actually, I think what your refering to is one of the few things that separate SMB2(j) from SMB1. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Ohhh yeah! i forgot about this!
