Hi,
I've played all of them over and over. Speedrunned them, found out sb tricks myself which were discovered by community already and got crazy on SJF in MP1... You get the shot. And then I stopped. Gone working, finished school, left them behind for two years. Tonight I took my old SNES out and plugged it into my TV and started a new SM game.
I made the 100% SS in 2:04. I remembered every single item location, every room and every sb possible.
And it was awful. As if you're not playing a game but making a race against time which forces you into using every strategy you know. You can't just skip early supers if you know how to get them. You can't wait for powerbombs until getting ice beam, you just have to walljump your way up in red brinstar.
I remember playing SM when I was younger. Jumping into the lower parts of red brinstar felt incredibly dangerous and hard. You knew you won't get out of this pit for a long time but this excitement is over. I hoped to get it somehow back but it seems it will never ever return again except you find out how to forget about all the games and it's ingenious crafted level design.
So, how to do it? How do you forget the games if you were a hardcore speedrunner and burned every picture of them in your brain forever?
