I have a damn recently acquired copy next to my famicom at this very minute so I should not be lazy and just check but did anything significant change in Mario 3 between the Japanese release and the US one nearly 2 years later?

That gap was always so weird to me. That first issue of Gamepro with the big scoop years too soon probably set the tone for all the “my uncle works at Nintendo” schoolyard stories.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE that I’d like to connect to my computer through a wired USB connection, does anyone have any recommendations for what the best software to do this is? (I was hoping I could use their native Second Screen function but that’s only through wireless and I don’t want that).

EDIT: This is to use the tablet as an additional monitor to my computer, should have mentioned that.
