There are many small features and enemies left out of Mario Maker. It's not a knock on the game. There is still an deep variety, and the tool is incredibly polished. But yeah, there is more to add (DLC pack?).
This is going to sound like the dumbest question, but in the original Super Mario Bros., could you get a height boost by timing your jump on an enemy's head? You absolutely can in Mario Maker, but I was trying to play through the original Mario on NES with the kid, and I definitely couldn't do it. The game did have a little graphical glitch here and there from dirty contacts, so I wasn't sure if the game had just bugged out, if I reaaaally sucked that day (although I did get to 8-4 before failing in our quest), or if it just wasn't in the game. My memory has absolutely failed me.
Super Mario Bros. The screen can move left allowing you to go back to earlier parts of a course! You gain extra height when jumping on an enemy. Even if you are small Mario you will become Fire Mario if you touch a Fire Flower, originally you would only become Super Mario.

In fact, I witnessed an attempt to fold a baron into a cube, so that it would eject from the pyramid in place of a die. That attempt failed.
