When you mention an Super Nintendo, this should instantly come to mind. Everyone that owned a Super Nintendo System had this game. It is a classic. This game and the Donkey Kong series are the best games for Super Nintendo. If you have only one game for your SNES, this is the one to have.

Classic Goodness

I loved this game fifteen years ago and I love it today. Super Mario World is one of my all-time favorite games. I recently bought this game to play after I became bored with some of the newer games I own. My girlfriend is a big Mario fan, and she and I spend time playing Mario World and unlocking all of its secrets.

Super Mario World is great fun for anyone of any age.

When I bought my Super Nintendo almost four years ago this was one of the first games I owned for it. Now I have a stunning 119 games for the SNES alone, meaning it has the biggest selection of games of any of my other systems. NO ONE SHOULD DISLIKE THIS GAME IN ANY WAY, IF YOU DO, YOU MUST REALLY DISLIKE CLASSICS IN GENERAL. It is one of the wildest and insane games ever made, and that is a clear signature of the originality of Nintendo. The game is basically about Mario and Luigi battling their way through the island while defeating the forces of Bowser yet again and rescuing the damsel in distress YET AGAIN. As you beat the different sections of the island you move to larger and much more challenging sections of the island which get crazier as you move from stage to stage. The boss battles can be challenging and funny because of how the bosses are designed. No retro gamer should miss out on this hilarious and original game that is still a lot of fun to play despite its release almost 20 years ago (in a few more years it's going to hit 20). One problem is the fact this game can be quite challenging and confusing in some areas. And the Game Boy Advance version of this game lets you play either Mario or Luigi (it doesn't make you stay exclusive to one during segments of the game). Still, if you don't have a SNES, you can easily find this game on Game Boy Advance and it looks and plays the same as the original classic.

The Best Mario Game EVER!

I've been playing this game for over 12 years and it still hasn't gotten old! Includes all the classic characters: mario, luigi, yoshi, the princess, and the bowser clan. If you don't like this game, then you are probably not a mario fan. All Mario fans: buy this game, it's amazing!!!!

The first time I played Super Mario World I was disappointed since I felt the overall feel, sound effects, and the overall package were not as impressive and fun as my all-time favorite Mario game, Super Mario Bros. 3. But after a little while I really grew into this one. The graphics are a step up from SMB3, coming about two years after the NES classic, and feature some new enemies as well as some familiar ones like the unholy annoyance known as Lakitu. Among the new enemies is an extremely annoying football player baddie that cannot be killed with a jump, and usually takes a good number of fireballs (and a follow-up jump) to kill.

Another thing I love about this one is the in-game save feature. SMB3 let you stay on the same world if you lost the game (and the murder-inducingly-frustrating original Super Mario Bros. had no such features at all), but Super Mario World lets you save after 2 or 3 levels, making it a greater convenience to play and easier to beat. The music is as good as ever as well; the victory music after you defeat a boss is especially epic and triumphant in that cheesy video game way. It always puts a smile on my face! Oh, and Yoshi also gets his debut in the world of Mario here. Awesome!

Overall, this is yet another addictive Mario classic. Highly recommended as usual.

Where Do I Start?!

To me this is possibly the best game I have ever played! I mean, sure there is the Wii with Super Mario Galaxy, but I like this game better. I have beat it 100% complete on the SNES.(I downloaded this game on the Wii shop channel too.)
The Story is: Mario and Luigi need a vaction and decide to take Peach on the way. Mario and the Gang end up at dinosour land and, well you guessed it, Bowser was there and decided to take Peach. Mario has to save her!

You can play this with a friend too. P1 will be Mario and P2 is Luigi. Unfortunatley you don't play together, you just take turns playing levels. But anyway I suggest you get this game for the SNES or Virtual Console!

This game is a classic in its own right.

Because at the time, no other game dazzled players like this one did! It was innovative with the flying cape tricks you could pull off and the music was sensational. Going to each castle was fun too and beating the pants off of the Koopa Kids was fun as heck.

I'm not sure that this game would get much play time from me now though, because I played it OUT when it was out and after that! But for those who have played it too, I'm sure you agree that this game was wonderful and still is. :P

4 stars.
