[[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.<ref>Interview with Shigeru Miyamoto in ''Mario Mania'' Player's Guide, p. 32.</ref> At some point during the game's development, it was meant to be released in North America and Europe as ''Super Mario World: Super Mario Bros. 4'' or ''Super Mario World: Super Mario Bros.'', but it was later shortened to ''Super Mario World''.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0MbGdkbeEU This local news segment displays the ''Super Mario World'' title screen with the "Super Mario Bros." subtitle.], retrieved 8/11/2011</ref><ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTzyz2TgGls This local news segment displays the ''Super Mario World'' title screen with the "Super Mario Bros. 4" subtitle.], retrieved 8/11/2011</ref> Miyamoto has stated that this is his favorite ''Mario'' game.

===Bosses===

*[[Koopalings]]

*[[Bowser]]

*[[Donut Plains 2]] has an added [[Exclamation Mark Block|! block]] after the three [[? Block]]s near the beginning of the level. Similarly, [[Vanilla Dome 1]] has an extra [[Cape Feather]] hidden in the structure of [[Rotating Block]]s found early in the level.

*The secret exit to [[Chocolate Island 3]] was made more conspicuous through the use of two additional arrow signs, rather than the lone sign found in the Japanese version.

*[[Lemmy's Castle]] has a time limit of 400 seconds instead of 300 seconds. [[Funky (Super Mario World)|Funky]] also provided the players more time in the international versions of the game via the presence of nine green [[Berry|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.

*The original [[wikipedia:Engrish|Engrish]] "YOU ARE SUPER PLAYER!!" message at the end of Funky was corrected to "YOU ARE A SUPER PLAYER!!". As the message was spelled in coins, this also meant more points could be collected in this final level in the international version.

*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.

**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 Island 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.

*While various enemies change after the game is changed to the fall setting, in the credits, the new enemies are shown but labeled as the old enemies in the Japanese version; this was then noticed and corrected for the international release.

*Like the enemy names, the staff credits were also written in romaji in the Japanese version, but various small changes were still made:<ref name="TCRF"/>

*''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' - [[Reznor]]s 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 ''Super Mario World'', with similar backgrounds and level styles. [[Baby Yoshi]]s reappear as well. It also uses a single, continuous world map, similar to this game.

==Critical reception==

==={{conjecturaltext|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.

==Trivia==

*This is the first game where Koopa Troopas and Paratroopas stand on two legs instead of four and wear shoes.

*All music in the levels are a variation of the main theme.
