For the cartoon show, see Super Mario World (TV series).
Super Mario World (Known in Japan as Super Mario Bros. 4: Super Mario World) was the first Mario launch game for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System.
The game was produced by Shigeru Miyamoto, the music was composed by Koji Kondo, and the graphics were designed by Shigefumi Hino.
This game was playable in the SNES, an arcade machine.
Oddly, the first version appeared in the NES as unofficial before this as there are changes and bugs at both of them.
Story
Mario, Peach were going to Dinosaur Land by Hot Air Balloon. When Mario and Peach arrived Luigi was there waiting for them with a Cape. Luigi gave Mario a Feather and Mario turned into Cape Mario. Mario and Luigi flew around Dinosaur Land with their capes.
Meanwhile Bowser and his Koopalings trapped Yoshi's friends in eggs, and stole Princess Peach. When Mario and Luigi returned they found the princess missing.
Mario and Luigi set out to save the princess with the help of the Yoshis and Dolphins.
Mario and Luigi start their mission to save the princess in Yoshi's Island. The brothers travel to the Yellow Switch Palace to activate all yellow ! Blocks. Here they rescue many trapped Yoshis, fight the first Koopaling, Iggy Koopa, and get the first Baby Yoshi.
The Mario Brothers next go to Donut Plains, a place where there's a giant lake in the center of the place. The Green Switch Palace was here. The brothers also defeated Morton Koopa Jr. here.
The brothers then went to the cave, Vanilla Dome, a cave full of Swoopers, Buzzy Beetles and many more dangerous enemies. Lava was all around this cave and the Red Switch Palace is located here. The brothers also defeated Lemmy Koopa.
Later in the Twin Bridges, the Mario brothers crossed a bridge (the other bridge was optional) and defeated Ludwig Von Koopa. The bridges were above Soda Lake.

In Chocolate Island, the brothers went through mountains and land of chocolate. They got to Wendy O. Koopa's castle, later went to the Sunken Ghost Ship, which was a crashed Doomship that sunk and got to the final level.
