“Ah, good ol' World 1. The first world in a game should be easy, right? Wrong! Mario's first stop in his latest adventure is filled with danger and will take him over land, through sewers, and underwater before he reaches his goal.”
Official website

World 1 is the first world in New Super Mario Bros. It is a grassland-themed world that introduces several enemies, including Koopa Troopas, Goombas, Dry Bones, Super Dry Bones, Podoboos, Cheep-Cheeps, Piranha Plants, Koopa Paratroopas, and Sushis. It also introduces all three of the game's newly added power-ups: Mega Mushroom, Mini Mushroom, and Blue Shell. There are eight levels in the world, with four along the standard path, one along a split path, and the Castle/Fortress level. Bowser Jr. and Bowser are the bosses fought here, at the tower and the castle, respectively. There are five Toad Houses: two Red Toad Houses, one Orange Toad House, and two Green Toad Houses. In addition, when the player completes the game, a Blue Toad House appears, where the player can buy and swap wallpapers for the touch screen while on the World Map. World 1 has a total of ten exits.

A background based on World 1 appears during the first segment of the Mario World Dream Figure Skating routine in the Wii version of Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games.
