okay, so word on the street is that SMB3 has a release date in Japan- that means it's coming to us eventually. As far as the Mario games goes, SMW is my ultimate favorite, so I have a bias. The R button replacing X and Y was a little tough to get used to, but it wasn't enough to lose a star over in my review. truly i can't wait to get mine so I can start conquereing the world without my big sister beating the hard parts for me (like how it was when I was a young 'un)

Super Mario World is a great game. For those who don't know, the plot is the same as the original version and most other Mario games ("save the princess!") but in most good games, it doesn't matter how cheesy the plot is, it's how much fun you'll have playing the game. And as for SMW:SMA2, you'll have a lot of fun. The controls are fairly simple, the graphics are fantastic, and there is a 4-player mode of the original Mario Bros. However, that makes it the same as the original SMA, but still fun. Just expected something new, that's all.
Ah, Another Classic Brought Back From the Dust

If you liked Super Mario World for the SNES, but it doesn't work anymore, you are sure to like this. SMW Advance is a pixel by pixel translation of that ol' early 90s classic. It may be a bit short, but the levels and whatnot are still fun. I'd say that the three Mario games for the GBA are all must haves.
probably the best game there will be for the GBA

If you're going to get 1 game, this has to be it. Unlike a lot of other GBA games that have been adapted to fit on the small screen, Suer Mario World seems as if it were written specifically for the gameboy- graphics, controls, sound are all dead on. Its just as playable as the NES version I remember from the early 90s.
Possibly the best Mario game ever...

Super Mario World must be considered by many to be one of the best Mario games ever created, even one of the best games of all time. The side-scrolling action we are all familiar with is as good as ever, but this game has so much more to offer.
All 96 levels are here from the Super-NES classic, almost exactly ported to the GBA. The graphics look great on this system and there may have been more secrets in the game in this version. Everything great about the game has been included: different exits to a lot of levels, keys to find secret levels and 5 dragon coins to find in each level. I guarantee a lot of gameplay and replay with this game because it will take a while to find everything in this game(unless you are using a strategy guide). I have had this game since it was released and I still havent quite found it all. There are 96 levels through 7 worlds with each world being ruled by one of Koopa's kids. Plenty of the Super Mario action that you remember.
Super Mario World represents the finest of the Super NES and it is perfectly translated here to the GBA. It is great that the game lives on and it is portable now so you can enjoy it anywhere, anytime. I definately recommend this classic to GBA owners and it is an essential part to any game collection.
One of the best games ever!

Super Mario World was a great game on the NES and the SNES and porting it to the Game Boy Advace was a great idea. This is the second Mario Advance game in the series and is also the best Mario Advance game in the series. This game is a great 2D game and a very fun and adictive game. If you are in to Mario and 2D sidescrollers you have to pick this one up!
Awesome

Tell me how this game is bad. It will take you forever to do so. This game is super fun with its classical level design that never gets old. Plus it has 96 of these classical levels that never get old. This is highly recomended to anyone who knows what the word video-game means.
Fantastic

Super Mario World is better than Super Mario Advance. The graphics are "fantastic". I don't have super NES and I loved playing this game at a friends house. I saw this and thaught it was a great offer. I think this is the best Mario game so far. Personally I like Luigi better because he is a great jumper. He jumps higher than Mario. I like that there are a ton of levels. It is also fun flying with the cape. One of my favorite levels is the underwater boo house. My favorite part of that level os the huge drop to the finish. This is a very,very,very "fantastic" game. If you don't have this game, I would get it right away. It sure is on my A list! I already beat the game 8 thimes already. I'm working on beating it a 9th time.
MY FIRST GAME EVER
