As such, it is the sequel to Super Mario Bros. 3. The game was produced by Shigeru Miyamoto, featuring music composed by Koji Kondo, and graphics designed by Shigefumi Hino. An updated version was later released on the Game Boy Advance as part of the Super Mario Advance series, titled Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2. The original version was also re-released on the Wii and later the Wii U and New Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console. This is the first Mario game in which Yoshi, Wigglers, Monty Moles, Banzai Bills, Swoopers, and Magikoopas appear, as well as a save feature. The game also features 2D graphics with linear transformations. Many of the game's enemies and obstacles are based on the game's dinosaur theme, with such enemies as Rexes and Dino Rhinos making their debuts in this game and affirming themselves as a part of the Mario series, and Yoshi solidifying his role as Mario's sidekick. The game was followed in 1995 by a prequel, Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, which is set many years before the events in Super Mario World. Yoshi's Island spawned its own series of sequels. Shigeru Miyamoto has stated that ever since they finished Super Mario Bros., the design staff wanted to have Mario ride a dinosaur. It was believed to be impossible technically until the Super NES was developed. According to Miyamoto, sixteen people were involved in the creation of the game, and it took about three years to make. At some point during the game's development, it was meant to be released in North America and Europe under the full Super Mario Bros. 4 title, but it was later shortened to simply Super Mario World. Miyamoto has stated that this is his favorite Mario game. In addition to the game itself, there is a cartoon series that is based on the game which debuted on September 14, 1991, one month after the American release. The series takes place in Dome City, and was produced by DiC Entertainment and Nintendo. Story Mario, Luigi, and Princess Toadstool in a hot air balloon in the Game Boy Advance remake Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2. After Bowser's previous defeat, Mario, Luigi and Princess Toadstool decide to recuperate in Dinosaur Land. Meanwhile in Dinosaur Land, the Koopa King and his Koopalings trap Yoshi and his friends in enchanted eggs, eliminating the opposition as they secretly rebuild their forces. Shortly upon their arrival, the Mario Bros. realize that Princess Toadstool is missing. While searching, they find the Koopa Troop army. Upon freeing the friendly Yoshi, he exclaims that the Koopas have invaded, confirming that Peach's persistent captor has indeed returned and taken the opportunity to claim the princess. As Mario and friends travel through Dinosaur Land, they uncover the Valley of Bowser. After defeating Larry, the Mario Bros. have access to the front door of Bowser's Castle. Bowser is fought on his castle roof in his Koopa Clown Car, holding Princess Toadstool hostage. Upon his defeat, he gently drops the princess and retreats. Princess Toadstool rewards Mario or Luigi with a kiss as fireworks celebrate freedom, signifying that their vacation can resume with their new good friends. The reunited team returns to Yoshi's House where they and three other Yoshis watch the Yoshi eggs hatch into babies, removing the spell. From the instruction booklet After saving the Mushroom Kingdom from Bowser and the rest of the Koopas in Super Mario 3, Mario and Luigi needed to recuperate from their adventures. Together they agreed that the best place to vacation was a magical place called Dinosaur Land. But while Mario and Luigi reclined on the beach for a relaxing nap, Princess Toadstool disappeared, apparently seized by evil forces. After searching for hours for their missing friend, Mario and Luigi came upon an enormous egg in the forest. Suddenly the egg hatched, and out popped a young dinosaur named Yoshi, who proceeded to tell Mario and Luigi a sad tale of how his dinosaur pals were sealed in similar eggs by a group of monstrous turtles. "Monstrous turtles!," exclaimed Luigi. "Bowser and his bunch have returned!" Mario slowly nodded his head in agreement and, along with Luigi and Yoshi, set off across Dinosaur Land to find the Princess and to free Yoshi's friends. As they began their journey, Yoshi handed Mario a beautiful cape. "This may help you," Yoshi said. "Some say it has magical powers." With a little luck (and help from a magic cape), our hearty crew can defeat the seven worlds of Bowser's Krazy Koopa Kritters. Many locations are well-hidden so explore everywhere and try everything. Not all locations have to be explored to rescue the dinosaurs and save Princess Toadstool, but there are many "starry" treasures to be found in far-reaching places. You'll need to search all areas to find what kinds of treasures are there… in Super Mario World. Gameplay The object of the game is to get to the goal tape to advance to the next level. While on Mario's way to the goal, he must encounter many enemies and collect power-ups and use items to help solve puzzles and destroy enemies. A chart illustrating Mario's power-ups in this game. Controls : Spin jump : Jump /: Dash/Interact/Special ability L:Scroll camera left (doesn't work in auto-scrolling levels, Yoshi's House, Top Secret Area, or Boss Rooms) R:Scroll camera right (doesn't work in auto-scrolling levels, Yoshi's House, Top Secret Area, or Boss Rooms) :Pause :Use item/Return to map from a completed level (when paused) Power-ups Image Name Description Super Mushroom Grab this to change into Super Mario/Luigi. 1000 points are awarded. Fire Flower Grab this to change into Fire Mario/Luigi. 1000 points are awarded. Cape Feather Grab this to change into Cape Mario/Luigi. 1000 points are awarded. Power Balloon If Mario or Luigi collects one of these, he will swell like a balloon and will be able to float in the air for a short time. No points are awarded upon collecting the item. Star When this is collected, either Mario or Luigi (depending on who gets it) will become temporarily invincible. If the player collects more stars in blocks when he or she has it already, he or she can stay invincible for a bit longer. 1000 points are awarded. Enemies defeated while invincible count towards points eventually becoming 1-Ups or 2-Ups, depending on the enemy. Yoshi's Wings If a Yoshi grabs these wings, he will enter Coin Heaven. They will also turn any Yoshi blue after completion, making this the only way to get a Blue Yoshi outside Star World. Items Image Name Description 1-Up Mushroom If Mario or Luigi collects one, he will get an extra life. 100 coins are collected. These mushrooms may also come from Eggs if Mario or Luigi is already riding Yoshi as they find them from a block/pass them by. 3-Up Moon If Mario or Luigi collects one of these very rare items, they both get three extra lives. 300 coins are collected. Coin Collect 100 Coins for a 1-Up. Gray Coin Pressing a Gray P Switch turns all enemies into Gray Coins for a limited time. If enough are collected, they create extra lives. Berries Eating ten red berries in one stage will cause Yoshi to lay an egg with a power-up. Two pink berries will produce a coin-throwing cloud. Green berries add 20 seconds to the time limit. A berry is also worth the same as a coin. Dragon Coin Collect all five or more on one stage for a 1-Up. 1000 points are awarded, then double for each one collected. Key and Keyhole If Mario or Luigi grabs a key and puts it in a keyhole (which is hidden in a level), a secret level will be unlocked. P Switch and Gray P Switch When a blue P Switch is pressed, blocks transform into coins and vice-versa, and some invisible blocks will be revealed. If a Gray P Switch is pressed, some enemies, such as Spinies, transform into Gray Coins. After a short period of time, the changes made by either switch revert to normal. Spring Jumping on a spring will allow Mario or Luigi to jump much higher than normal. Grab Block A dark blue block that can be picked up and carried. Once grabbed, it can be kicked away to defeat enemies. Magic Ball An item that ends the current stage when touched. It appears only in the Sunken Ghost Ship. Baby Yoshi If Mario or Luigi passes nearby a lone Yoshi Egg, it will hatch into a Baby Yoshi. The player must feed the Baby Yoshi five enemies, grab blocks, or one powerup to grow into an Adult Yoshi. Every time a Baby Yoshi eats an enemy, the player will receive a coin and 200 points. Secret bonus changes After the player beats every special level, the following changes occur: World Map: The colors of the map become Fall-themed, like grass and the trees of Forest of Illusion turning orange. Koopa Troopas and Koopa Paratroopas: Change into Mask Koopas. Jumping Piranha Plants: Change into Jumping Pumpkin Plants. Bullet Bills: Change into Pidgit Bills. Vines: Buds become pumpkins. Worlds World Image Information World 1 Yoshi's Island Yoshi's Island is mainly a grassy plains-related world that doesn't contain any underwater levels. The main enemies in this world include Monty Moles, Koopa Troopas, Rexes, and a few others. Iggy is found in his castle at the end of this world. Completing this world leads to Donut Plains. It also contains the Yellow Switch Palace. World 2 Donut Plains Donut Plains is the second world in the game. It is known for featuring the first Ghost House of the game and for being the first course with multiple exits. The Cape Feather is utilized frequently. The name of this world is a hinting of its unusual shape. It has two Ghost Houses, the Green Switch Palace, and Castle #2. World 3 Vanilla Dome The Vanilla Dome is a big cavern full of sparkling diamonds and contains a Ghost House, a large lake, the Red Switch Palace, and Castle #3. It also contains lava pools with the large Blarggs living within them. World 4 Twin Bridges Twin Bridges is basically semi-sky based, as it has sky and land levels. It contains one underwater level and the third portal to the Star World. World 5 Forest of Illusion The Forest of Illusion is a maze-like forest, where Mario or Luigi must sometimes find the secret exit on a level in order to progress, as the normal exits create a circle leading nowhere. It contains the Blue Switch Palace, a Fortress, and Castle #5. World 6 Chocolate Island Chocolate Island is an island on the southeastern side of Dinosaur Land. The boss here is Wendy O. Koopa. This is the only known island where Mario or Luigi can find Dino Rhinos and Dino-Torches. World 7 Valley of Bowser The Valley of Bowser is, as the name implies, Bowser's operation base. The entrance to the Valley of Bowser appears after going through the Sunken Ghost Ship area. It is mostly cave-themed and contains a Fortress, Castle #7, and Bowser's Castle. World 8 Star World The Star World is a mystical road far above the Mushroom World, and is linked to various locations around the world. It consists of five stars, each of which serves as a warp point. World 9 Special Zone The Special Zone is the final and secret world. It can be accessed after completing the Star World and taking the secret exit from Star World 5. This world is known for containing the most difficult levels in the game, and each level has its own unique gimmick. If Mario and/or Luigi accumulate(s) 100 stars by touching the flag at the finish, they play a bonus game where they hit blocks. Eight random blocks travel around a block that already has a determined power-up. Power-ups include Super Mushrooms, Fire Flowers, and Stars. Mario/Luigi can hit blocks only while they are at the bottom, and hit blocks continue to travel around the center (while retaining the hit power-up). Once the last block is hit, the blocks stop traveling and 1-Ups are awarded. The number of 3-in-a-row matches determines the number of 1-Ups the player will receive (up to 8). Characters The various characters and creatures of Super Mario World. Playable characters Mario and Luigi are the main playable characters. In 2-player mode, Mario is controlled by Player 1 and Luigi is controlled by Player 2. If Mario loses a life or completes a level in 2-Player mode, Luigi comes into play until he does the same. The two may also share extra lives on the world map. The two have identical mechanics. Supporting characters Dolphin Princess Toadstool Yoshi Colored Yoshis In addition to Mario and Luigi, Yoshis of four different colors appear in the game, which may be controlled once acquired and help the Mario Bros. in many levels of the game: Green Yoshi, the default Yoshi. Like the other Yoshis, it is able to eat many kinds of enemies and jump on spiked enemies without taking harm as well as walk across Munchers. They can also utilize Shells for special powers, but unlike the other Yoshis, depend on the color of the Shell but not a special Yoshi power to pair with it. Red Yoshi, a Yoshi that spits out any colored Shell in the form of three fireballs. Blue Yoshi, a Yoshi that can fly as long as it has a Koopa Shell of any color in its mouth. Yellow Yoshi, a Yoshi that can create sand clouds with an attack similar to a ground-pound, which is found in later games, by taking a Koopa Shell into its mouth, defeating enemies with its impact. Cape Mario and Green Yoshi Small Mario and a Red Yoshi Fire Mario and a Blue Yoshi Cape Mario and a Yellow Yoshi Green Yoshis hatch out of Yoshi Eggs, usually found in various blocks throughout the game. If a Yoshi Egg is found but the player already has a Yoshi, the Egg will instead provide an 1-Up Mushroom. Red, blue and yellow Yoshis are uncommon in Super Mario World. They are first encountered in the Star World, which is accessible by using the five Star Roads found throughout the game. They are found as Baby Yoshis, small and unable to be ridden. However through carrying them, the baby Yoshi's will eat the enemies they touch. When five enemies are eaten, they will transform into adult Yoshis, and can now be used normally. Baby Yoshis of all colors hatch from the Yoshi Eggs rescued from the castles, during the ending credits of the game. Additionally, a Yoshi can become Blue Yoshi if he touches Yoshi's Wings, which appear in some levels and act as shortcuts to the end of the stage.

Regional differences A number of changes were made to Super Mario World when it was released internationally following its initial Japanese version. This included translating the Japanese names and words and tweaking various levels to make the game easier for international audiences. Yoshi can eat the dolphins in the Japanese version. Gameplay changes Yoshis can eat the Dolphins as if they were regular enemies in the Japanese version of Super Mario World, but not in the international versions of the game, likely due to them not being enemies. However, this change was later reversed in the remake, Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2, allowing Yoshis to eat the dolphins in the non-Japanese versions of the game as well. Level design changes Donut Plains 2 has an added ! Block after the three ? Blocks near the beginning of the level. Similarly, Vanilla Dome 1 has an added Cape Feather in one of the Rotating Blocks in the structure found early in the level in the international version. The secret exit to Chocolate Island 3 was made more conspicuous through the use of two additional arrow signs, rather than one sign found in the Japanese version. In Donut Secret House, the walls at the end of the two main rooms were extended a bit to fill the whole screen. In the Sunken Ghost Ship, the three 1-Up Mushrooms at the bottom of the Ghost Ship are absent in the Japanese version. #3 Lemmy's Castle has a time limit of 400 seconds instead of 300 seconds. Funky also provided the players more time in the international versions of the game via the presence of nine green berries instead of the original three in the Japanese version; as having Yoshi eat green berries adds 20 seconds to the timer, this meant the international players could accumulate triple the extra time than in the Japanese version of the game. In the Japanese version, the coins at the end of Funky spell out "YOU ARE SUPER PLAYER!!" while in international versions of the game, more coins were added to correctly say, "YOU ARE A SUPER PLAYER!!" Graphical changes Both the file select and mode select title screens change between the different versions. In the file select screen, the Japanese text was changed to English for international releases, and in both cases, 1991 was added to the original's 1990 copyright date to reflect when the North American and PAL versions were released. The logo was also changed to make the shadowing of the letters less pronounced and the "TM" was rewritten in the same lettering style as the title itself. As shown in the comparison of the file select screens below, the PAL version differed from both the Japanese and North American releases in height. Each version also has their own marker to denote whether all 96 exits were found or not. Japanese version North American version PAL version The file select screen. Japanese version North American and PAL versions Mode select screen Japanese International The sign at Yoshi's house was originally written in Japanese script. All instances of Japanese names occurring in-game were changed to English. The sign at Yoshi's House was changed from katakana (Japanese script) to the English alphabet. Also the sign has some shade in the international versions. The enemy names were all translated as well, although rather than Japanese script, they were written in romaji (English letters) in the Japanese version itself. This includes the credits, the writing on Reznor's wheel, and the sign on Bowser's castle. Japanese International Japanese International The signs on Reznor's spinning wheel and on Bowser's castle were changed from their Japanese names to their English names. Textual changes In addition to being translated, various other changes were made to the level names. While block numbers were used in the original Japanese names, the numbers in the international version match the font style used in the lettering. In the Japanese version, all level names were followed by 「コースｘ」, "Course X", but in the international version, the names were simply numbered (i.e. 「ヨースターとう　コース１」, "Yōsutā tō Cōsu 1", changes to "Yoshi's Island 1", instead of "Yoshi's Island Course 1"). Cheese Bridge Area, Cookie Mountain, Forest Secret Area, and Chocolate Secret's Japanese names were all followed by 「コース１」, "Course 1", but as there were no additional levels sharing these names, the numerical designation was dropped for the international versions. However, the Special Zone levels were not numbered. Gnarly and Tubular were both 「おたのしみ　コース」 (Fun Course), Way Cool and Awesome were both 「マリオスタッフもビックリ　コース」 (Even the Mario Staff is Shocked Course), Groovy and Mondo were both 「スペシャリストのための　コース」 (Specialists' Course), and Outrageous and Funky were 「チャンピオンシップの コース」 (Championship Course). The flavor text after defeating a Koopaling and destroying their castle was the same for every Koopaling in the Japanese version, and thus more generic. In international versions, each Koopaling is given their own flavor text. While various enemies change designs after the game is changed to the Fall setting, in the credits, the replacements are given new monikers in the SNES version; in the Super Famicom and Game Boy Advance versions, their name remains the same. Like the enemy names, the staff credits were also written in romaji in the Japanese version, but various small changes were still made: The somewhat odd title of "Total Director" was changed to "Main Director", "Back Ground" was corrected to "Background", and all instances of "Programer" were changed to the "Programmer" spelling for the international release. "C.G. Designer" was elaborated upon as "Character Graphic Designer" outside of Japan, and various other titles were tweaked, with "Course Director" becoming "Area Director", "Course Editor" changing to "Area Data Input", and "Player and System Programer" becoming "Mario and System Programmer." The spacing of certain words was also tweaked, and a colon was added to "Special Thanks" in the international version. Dayv Brooks was added to the "Special Thanks" list for his translation work on Super Mario World. Media For a complete list of media for this subject, see List of Super Mario World media.

Remakes and ports Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World Main article: Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World The Super Mario All-Stars remake of Super Mario World gave Luigi a more distinctive sprite where he is taller, thinner and animates differently, while in the original he is simply a palette swap of Mario and his moves are identical to Mario's. Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2 Main article: Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2 Super Mario World was ported to the Game Boy Advance handheld system as the second installation in the Super Mario Advance series, Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2. Some of the more notable changes are new Luigi's sprite, the new amount of 999 lives that can now be saved, and the list of levels showing whether the secret exit and the Yoshi Coins have been found. SNES Classic Edition Super Mario World is one of the 21 titles included on the Super NES Classic Edition. Nothing was changed in this port from the original game. References to other games Super Mario Bros. - If the player waits on the Special Zone map for two minutes, a cover version of the overworld theme will start playing. Super Mario Bros. 2 - Unaltered Ninjis reappear, and Bullet Bills resembling Pidgits appear in the Fall. Pokeys also return. Super Mario Bros. 3 - The Sunken Ghost Ship was once an airship from this game. Also, all of the Koopalings return here. Bob-ombs reuse their keyless artillery graphics here. References in later games Mario Roulette - Many sounds and graphics from here appear in this game. Mario Paint - Many sounds and graphics from here appear in this game. Super Mario Kart - Lakitu is near identical in appearance in this game and many tracks in this game are based on levels here. The music that plays in the Ghost Valley and Bowser Castle courses are remixes of the music from the Ghost Houses and the final boss theme, respectively, from Super Mario World. Mario's Time Machine - Many sounds and graphics from Super Mario World appear in this game. Mario is Missing! - Many sounds and graphics from here appear in this game. Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island - This game is a prequel to Super Mario World, though the stories are practically unrelated in sharing some settings and uses Yoshi as the main character, although there are nine Yoshis (or ten in the Game Boy Advance remake) for each stage for each zone. Also, Yoshi's sound effects from here were reused in this game. Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars - The Star Road found here is destroyed by Exor and it is revealed that Geno is from here. Yoshi's Island also returns as Yo'ster Isle, and a rendition of the overworld theme from this game plays upon first meeting Gaz. Also, the overworld theme can be heard while singing a character to sleep. Super Mario 64 - The idea of Switch Palaces is, in a way, carried over into this game. Also, Yoshi references this game when he says, "It has been so long since our last adventure!" Super Mario Bros. Deluxe - The first part of the background music heard in the Special Zone was arranged as the "Mystery Room" theme. Super Smash Bros. - Mario and Luigi's down special, Mario Tornado and Luigi Cyclone, are similar and could be based on the Spin Jump that originated in Super Mario World. Paper Mario - The first few notes of the Super Mario World overworld theme can be heard in this game's title screen music. Also, one of the tracks played by the radio in Koopa Village is the ending theme of the same game. Luigi's Mansion - One of Melody Pianissima's musical quizzes names this game as an optional response. Super Smash Bros. Melee - There is a Super Mario World-themed level called Yoshi's Island. Banzai Bill also returns, and Mario can use his Cape as his side special move. Trophies of the Koopa Clown Car and Mario riding Yoshi are collectible. Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga - In a room in Woohoo Hooniversity, four question blocks from previous games (the names of which are even stated in their descriptions) can be seen; one of them is the question block from Super Mario World. A cover of the overworld theme from Super Mario World is used for some of the minigames. The Koopalings are also fought in the same order as in Super Mario World. Super Mario Sunshine - When F.L.U.D.D. scans Mario, a video of Mario battling Iggy in this game can be seen. Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door - Riding Yoshi came from this game. Also, if Mario gets an email from the RDM, a tone that is a cover of the music that plays when Mario destroys a castle in this game plays. If Mario gets an email from Peach, the title screen music from this game plays. Mario Party Advance - The results screen music after the player runs out of Mushrooms in this game is a cover of the overworld theme from Super Mario World. Goombas also appeared in the form they appeared in the game as well. Super Smash Bros. Brawl - A short demo of Super Mario World is playable, and the Yoshi's Island stage returns. Mario's Cape move returns from Melee as well. Also, Bowser uses his Koopa Clown Car in the Subspace Emissary. Finally, the title theme and ending theme are covers and plays on the Delfino Plaza stage, as well as the castle theme on the Luigi's Mansion stage. Yoshi's Final Smash, Super Dragon, is based on the powers he can obtain from a Koopa shell, specifically the powers from a red Koopa Troopa and blue Koopa Troopa. Hot Head makes an appearance as an item in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, as well as a trophy. Blargg appears as a sticker in this game. New Super Mario Bros. Wii - Yoshi reappears in this game, behaving exactly as he did in Super Mario World. The Spin Jump also makes a return. Part of the music that plays in the castle/fortresses in this game is used for the castle levels in New Super Mario Bros. Wii. Super Mario Galaxy 2 - A cover of the music from the Ghost House levels is used for Haunty Halls Galaxy and Boo Moon Galaxy. A cover of the athletic theme is used for Hightail Falls Galaxy (and also the music that plays during the mission for Starshine Beach Galaxy, "Purple Coin Beach Dash"). Sound effects from Super Mario World are reused, such as the sound when Yoshi is mounted, when a door is opened and when the Switch Block time limit (the Teleporter time limit in this game) is about to run out. Yoshi reappears in the game. Yoshi's House also returns in the Sky Station Galaxy. The Bonus Game theme from this game is used as the music that plays when touching the Rainbow Notes in the Puzzle Plank Galaxy. Mario Sports Mix - A remix of the athletic theme from this game is available as one of the songs in Harmony Hustle. Super Mario 3D Land - The sound heard when Mario exits a level after beating it in Super Mario World is present in this game after Luigi's letter is seen. Certain Rainbow Note sets play the Bonus Game theme. New Super Mario Bros. 2 - Reznors returns in this game, as well as the cover of the battle theme. Also, the chime that can be heard while the game loads sometimes plays a small part of the Super Mario World overworld theme, and in World 4, Super Mario World's snow level background is reused. New Super Mario Bros. U - This game seems to be based off of Super Mario World, with similar backgrounds and level styles. A Sumo Bro returns as the boss for the level Screwtop Tower. Baby Yoshis reappear as well. It also uses a single, continuous world map, similar to this game. Super Mario 3D World - Along with having a similar name, this game features Chargin' Chucks and Goombas (renamed Galoombas), both of which haven't been seen in a Super Mario platform game since Super Mario World. At the beginning of The Great Tower of Bowser Land is a Bowser Mobile, which, hitting it occasionally causes Super Mario World sound effects to play. The artwork of Beach Koopa for this game is reused as a stamp. Super Smash Bros. for Wii U - Like in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, a demo of Super Mario World can be found under Masterpieces. Two new songs based on ones from Super Mario World's music, namely "Fortress Boss" and "Super Mario World Medley" (Overworld theme, portions of the bonus game theme, Star World, and Super Star) appear as the selectable songs in the "My Music" section. Yoshi's Island (Melee) returns as a playable stage in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. Super Mario Maker/Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS - One of the level styles is Super Mario World and part of the ending theme is used in the credits.

The music that plays in the bonus areas and Bonus Game was remixed as the music that plays during some of the challenge areas in this game. WarioWare Gold - This game contains a microgame that is based off of Super Mario World, which involves Cape Mario collecting a certain amount of coins. Notable mistakes and errors Graphical Several graphical errors are present in the game. Of note is that the Magikoopas' unique palette has their colors ordered incorrectly, resulting in the area that should be occupied by the lightest shade of blue instead having the darkest. This is fixed in the Game Boy Advance version by giving them the normal blue palette. The Koopa bosses are all depicted with three fingers on each hand. This is fixed in the GBA version. Most of the Koopalings' sprites are made to resemble their Super Mario Bros. 3 counterparts (likely to be more easy to recognize), even when the result would be off-model from their artwork, such as with Iggy only having one tooth and Wendy having a white bow with red spots. Morton, Roy, and Ludwig are given green, blue, and yellow palettes respectively in gameplay. In the credits, they are given turquoise, gray, and pink palettes, respectively, However, in order to match up with their Super Mario Bros. 3 palettes, they should be given the gray, pink, and turquoise palettes, respectively. The credits also give Ludwig Morton's teeth. Lemmy is depicted as being yellow, and has large fangs and spikeless arm cuffs, likely owing to having the same body as Wendy to conserve graphic space. Iggy is accidentally given Larry's hair, leaving Iggy's unused except for in the credits. This is fixed in the GBA version. Bowser is depicted as being primarily green. This is fixed in the GBA version to make him primarily orange. In addition, he lacks the spiked cuffs on his arms. This error is kept on the GBA version. Yoshi's arms are orange, as are those of the rest of his species. Due to how Chargin' Chucks' graphics are assembled, their graphics have many errors. Most conspicuously, their heads come off for a frame when they are hit. Other errors include their facemasks going behind the rim of their plastrons in certain poses, and the facemasks also being visible in front of the clapping effect. They are also assigned a green palette in-game despite being colored with blue highlights in their artwork and being given a blue palette in the credits. They also have a star in their artwork, which is absent in their sprites. Despite Dry Bones being skeletal Koopa Troopas, they are depicted as being far larger than their living counterparts. They also have neck and arm bones in their sprites, but not their artwork. The two lower tiles on the back-facing Climbing Koopas appear to be switched, as the lower part of the shell moves in the opposite direction as the upper part of it, and the limbs aren't oriented as they are in the front-facing sprites. Spike Tops are seemingly depicted with six legs in the game, despite seemingly having four in their artwork. Despite being given green shoes in their artwork, Goombas are assigned the yellow palette in-game, with the yellow only effecting their shoes anyway. Monty Moles have incompatible designs between their jumping and running sprites, with the former having a split lip and the latter having a smooth curve for a mouth. The GBA remake continues this with Mega Mole's unique defeat sprite seen by having Yoshi eat one while playing as Luigi. Due to how Mechakoopas' tiles are assembled, the sprite of one getting up from being stunned appears to have half of an extra lower jaw under its full jaw and half of an extra foot over its full foot. Big Boos have lower fangs and white eyes in their sprites, but have the same faces as normal Boos in their artwork. Bony Beetles have the same falling apart animation as Dry Bones, with Dry Bones' heads being particularly conspicuous. Miscellaneous In the Japanese version, the message spelled out with coins in Funky reads "YOU ARE SUPER PLAYER!!" in a typical case of Engrish. The Western versions fix the grammar to "YOU ARE A SUPER PLAYER!!" thus adding more coins to the level. In the manual description for Reznor, Bowser is referred to simply by his Japanese name and surname of "Koopa," when all other instances in the manual refers to him by his first name. The English localization refers to as the enemy known as Kuribon in Japan as "Goomba," either in an accidental mistranslation or a deliberate attempt to group the two creatures together, possibly to seem more familiar to players. This led to confusion in Western depictions as to whether or not the two creatures were the same thing or not until Super Mario 3D World retranslated them as "Galoombas," though Mario Party Advance seemingly made an earlier attempt with "Goombob." Critical reception It has been requested that this section be rewritten and expanded to include more information. Super Mario World received universal critical acclaim. The game was placed 16th in the 100th issue of Nintendo Power's "100 best Nintendo games of all time" in 1997. The game placed 47th in the 200th Issue of GameInformer's "Top 200 Games of All Time". Super Mario World was bundled with the Super Nintendo Entertainment System making it the most sold game for SNES, selling 20 million copies. IGN rated the Game Boy Advance remake a 9.3/10 and the Wii Virtual Console version an 8.5/10. Allgame rated it 5 stars. Pre-release and unused content Main article: List of Super Mario World pre-release and unused content Dinosaur Land was drastically different than the final version, possessing an appearance similar to the various kingdoms of Super Mario Bros. 3. Specifically, it was to feature things such as Toad Houses (which could possibly mean that Toads were once considered to populate Dinosaur Land) and more Super Mario Bros. 3-style Fortresses. In addition to this, the game originally had the subtitle "Super Mario Bros. 4" Glitches Main article: List of Super Mario World glitches Glitchy graphics from defeated enemies The balls on Iggy's and Larry's platforms can be destroyed by the sliding attack, as can the Grinders (using a triangle block). This results in glitchy graphics, most likely because the developers did not intend for these enemies to be defeated. The same thing happens if Mario does a nose diving in the second level of the Bowser battle. The Big Steely is defeated as a red sprite of Princess Toadstool's head. Miscolored overworld In order to do this glitch, the player must go to the end of Chocolate Island 3. Under the goal, the player must jump off Yoshi to the Giant Gate so that the screen does not scroll up. If done correctly, Mario is barely seen when he finishes the level, and because Mario is not present on the bottom of the screen, the screen begins to flicker in many colors as the stage begins to fade out. When he comes back to the overworld map, the entire world is glitchy and colored with red and blue. If Mario visits Forest of Illusion or Valley of Bowser and comes back to the main overworld, the entire world will be ivory colored instead. The glitch ends if the player completes a level or visits Star Road. Staff Main article: List of Super Mario World staff Twenty-three people were listed in the credits of Super Mario World, including notable Nintendo composer Koji Kondo for the sound programming and Shigeru Miyamoto as the producer. Takashi Tezuka was the overall director of the game, listed as the "Total Director" in the original Japanese version of the credits.

Additionally, the Mario, Luigi and Yoshi sprites were also reused for Mario is Missing! and Mario's Time Machine. Although Mario and Luigi have back pockets, they are not shown with those details in their artwork.
