'''''Super Mario World''''', also known as '''''Super Mario Bros. 4''''' in Japan, is a 2D ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' game and a launch title released for the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]] in [[List of games by date#1990|1990]], developed by [[Nintendo Entertainment Analysis and Development|Nintendo EAD]]. Being a sequel to ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', the game retains many of the elements that debuted in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', such as the [[world]] map and [[Koopalings|Koopaling]] boss fights, while introducing a large variety of new gameplay mechanics, such as an expanded and less linear world map and the ability to save the game. Introduced in ''Super Mario World'' is [[Mario]]'s sidekick, [[Yoshi]] (and [[Yoshi (species)|his species that shares his name]]), who serves as a playable mount for the Mario Bros. with his own unique abilities and gameplay style.

The game was released to best-selling status on the SNES, received large amounts of critical acclaim, and is commonly seen on [[Nintendo]]'s best games of all time on various critic listings. Much of the game's introduced characters, game mechanics, and artistic themes influenced later titles in the ''Mario'' series, where the character Yoshi was popular enough to receive [[Yoshi (franchise)|a series starring him]]. The game was followed in [[List of games by date#1995|1995]] by a prequel, ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', which is set many years before the events in ''Super Mario World''. The game has spawned various non-game media such as [[Super Mario World (television series)|a cartoon series]] that is based on the game, which debuted on September 14, [[List of games by date#1991|1991]], one month after the American release. Various manga adaptions of the game have sprung up, one notable series being ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'', which has its first volumes based on ''Super Mario World'' released in 1991 and is still ongoing today.

After [[Bowser]]'s previous defeat, Mario, [[Luigi]], and [[Princess Peach|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 [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]]s, 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 the Mario Bros. freeing the friendly Yoshi, he exclaims that the Koopas have invaded, confirming that Toadstool's persistent captor has indeed returned and taken the opportunity to claim the princess.

As Mario and his friends travel through Dinosaur Land, they uncover the [[Valley of Bowser]], where Bowser is fought on [[Bowser's Castle|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 eggs hatch into [[Baby Yoshi|babies]], removing the spell.

;From the instruction booklet

<blockquote>After saving the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] from Bowser and the rest of the [[Koopa (species)|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.<br>

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.<br>

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.<br>

"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."<br>

With a little luck (and help from '''[[Cape Feather|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.</blockquote>

As the game is a 2D platformer, the object is to get to the [[Giant Gate]] to advance to the next [[level]] before the [[Time Limit|timer]] runs out. Mario (or Luigi) can [[jump]] over and on top of various [[platform]]s and obstacles and [[stomp]] on various enemies to defeat them. In addition to these basic moves, Mario can [[Spin Jump|spin-jump]] to destroy certain types of [[block]]s and enemies, whereas {{button|snes|X}} or {{button|snes|Y}} lets Mario [[dash]] if held down. When the player presses either of those buttons when Mario is next to some items, he can pick them up and carry them through the level as the buttons are held. Mario can now hold objects underwater; when he does, he can [[swim]] quickly using only {{button|snes|Pad}} without pressing the jump button. When Mario hits the Giant Gate at the end of the level, if he touches the vertically moving bar between the gate, he gets awarded [[Goal Star|Bonus Star]]s depending on how high the bar was when he touched it. If he collects 100 Bonus Stars, Mario can play a [[bonus game (Super Mario World)|bonus game]] that helps him earn [[extra life|extra lives]]. Some levels contain a [[Midway Gate]], which not only powers Mario up to [[Super Mario (form)|Super Mario]] when touched but also serves as a checkpoint for Mario to respawn near if he gets defeated in the level.

In order to obtain most power-ups, Mario has to hit various blocks, which may contain items. The basic [[Super Mushroom]], which turns Mario into Super Mario, causes Mario to grow bigger and allows him to sustain an extra hit. When Super Mario hits a block, usually a more powerful item spawns in the Super Mushroom's place, such as a [[Fire Flower]] or the newly introduced [[Cape Feather]]. Introduced in ''Super Mario World'' is the [[Item Storage]] system, where Mario can hold on to extra items should he find them while in powered-up forms; players can manually drop their reserve item by pressing {{button|snes|select}}. If Mario gets damaged and turns into regular Mario, the reserve item automatically deploys. A newly introduced character and power-up in ''Super Mario World'', Yoshi, appears when Mario hits certain blocks. Mario can ride Yoshi when he jumps on him, and he helps Mario with his own unique traits and abilities.

If Mario gets touched by an enemy or a damaging obstacle while he is in his normal form, he loses a life. If he gets damaged by an enemy while in a power-up form, he reverts to his normal form. If Mario loses all of his lives, the player receives a [[Game Over]] and is prompted to [[continue]] from their last save with five more lives. Some obstacles defeat Mario instantly regardless of what power-up he has, such as falling into [[pit]]s or [[lava]], getting crushed, or not making it to the goal in time. Every time Mario gets defeated, he gets sent back to the world map.

Two-player mode returns, where players take turns playing through the game; Player 1 controls Mario, while Player 2 controls Luigi. Players can opt to use the same controller or two controllers to play the mode. If one player fails to clear a course, the other player takes a turn, and if Midway Gates are touched, the other player starts at the Midway Gate. Players can also hand each other lives on the map screen if they press {{button|snes|L}} or {{button|snes|R}}.

''Super Mario World'' takes place on [[Dinosaur Land]], an archipelago of themed areas, and players navigate on this world map, which visualizes traveling through the island. Unlike in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', the levels on the world map are marked directly on Dinosaur Land, creating a seamless, organic appearance between worlds and levels. Players first start out on Yoshi's Island at [[Yoshi's House]], where the path immediately branches off into two levels. The order of the world themes is unique to this title: Players first start in grassy plain-like worlds while eventually venturing into a cave, onto twin bridges, into a forest, onto a rocky island, and finally into the [[Valley of Bowser]], which takes on a subterranean wasteland appearance. Haunted [[Ghost House]]s are introduced in ''Super Mario World'' and populate Dinosaur Land; unlike traditional level layouts, they tend to contain puzzles and traps designed to confuse the player. Cave levels and levels that primarily take place underwater or where water is prevalent are additionally marked such on the map, with most cave levels outside the [[Vanilla Dome]] and the Valley of Bowser featuring rocks around them, while Mario gets submerged in water for the water levels.

''Super Mario World'' contains nine worlds and 73 (74 if the [[Back Door]] and [[Front Door]] are counted as separate levels, and 76 if the [[Top Secret Area]] and Yoshi's House are counted as levels) levels in total, 24 of which have secret exits for a total of 96 exits. Almost all worlds contain four regular levels and at least one secret level. Levels marked in yellow contain one exit, while levels marked in red contain an alternative, secret exit. Other points of interest include the [[Switch Palace]]s, [[Warp Pipe]]s, and the [[Star Road (Super Mario World)|star-shaped portals]] to [[Star World]] that are unlocked only when players find the associated secret exit. Switch Palaces activate respectively colored permeable [[Dotted-Line Block|Dotted Line Block]]s and turn them into solid [[! Block]]s that can be stood on or hit from below. Once Switch Palace levels have been completed, they cannot be visited again. Warp Pipes warp players to different areas of the map, usually to different worlds altogether. Finally, Yoshis cannot be taken into castles, fortresses, or Ghost Houses, though Yoshi remains outside for the player if they exit the level. In castles, players have to defeat the Koopalings, while in fortresses, players need to defeat [[Reznor]]s.

!width="center" colspan=4|Information

|align=left colspan=4 height=75%|Donut Plains is the second world in the game. It is known for featuring the first Ghost House and for being the first to have a course with multiple exits. The Cape Feather is utilized frequently. The name of this world is a reference to its unusual shape. It has two Ghost Houses, the Green Switch Palace, and Castle #2.

|align=left colspan=4 height=75%|The Twin Bridges are semi-sky-based, as they have sky and land levels. This world contains one underwater level and the third portal to Star World.

|align=left colspan=4 height=75%|The Forest of Illusion is a maze-like forest, where Mario or Luigi may sometimes have to find the secret exit on a level in order to progress, as the normal exits create a circle leading nowhere. This world contains the Blue Switch Palace, a fortress, and Castle #5.

|align=left colspan=4 height=75%|Chocolate Island is an island on the southeastern side of Dinosaur Land. The boss here is [[Wendy O. Koopa]]. This is the only world where Mario and Luigi can find [[Dino-Rhino]]s and [[Dino-Torch]]es.

[[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] are the main playable characters. In two-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 two-player mode, Luigi comes into play until he does the same. The two may also share [[Extra life|extra lives]] on the world map. The two have identical mechanics.

{|width=100% cellspacing=0 border=2 cellpadding=3 style="border-collapse:collapse;background:white"

|A sea creature that gives Mario or Luigi a ride in certain water levels. Dolphins move in jumping arcs or can jump up and down. In Japanese versions of the game, they can be eaten by a Yoshi, while they are unable to be eaten in international versions. They appear in Vanilla Secret 3 and a small section at the end of Chocolate Island 1.

In addition to Mario and Luigi, [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshis]] of four different colors appear in the game, and they may be controlled once acquired and help the Mario Bros. in many levels of the game. Green Yoshis hatch out of [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]]s, usually found in various blocks throughout the game. If an egg is found but the player already has a Yoshi, the egg instead provides a [[1-Up Mushroom]]. If a Yoshi gets hurt, it runs off, requiring the Mario Bros. to chase it down if they want to ride it again. Yoshis can additionally provide an extra jump boost to Mario and Luigi if they jump off the Yoshi. Some levels contain [[Berry|berries]], and Yoshis can eat them and produce eggs from them if enough are eaten. Yoshis can eat most enemies, though they cannot immediately [[swallow]] most shells, requiring them to spit the shells out before they eventually swallow them.

{|width=100% cellspacing=0 border=2 cellpadding=3 style="border-collapse:collapse;background:white"

|Green Yoshis are able to eat enemies by using their long tongues and jump on spiked foes without taking harm as well as walk across [[Muncher]]s. They can use a [[shell|Koopa Shell]]'s power depending on the color of the shell.

|Red Yoshis can spit out any Koopa Shell in the form of three [[fireball]]s. These fireballs turn a variety of enemies into coins. Red Yoshis are found as Baby Yoshis in [[Star World 1]] or [[Star World 4]].

|Blue Yoshis can [[Winged Yoshi|fly]] regardless of what color the Koopa Shell is in their mouths. Additionally, a Yoshi can become a Blue Yoshi if he touches [[Yoshi's Wings]], which appear in some levels and act as shortcuts to the end of the stage. Blue Yoshis are found as Baby Yoshis in [[Star World 2]].

|Yellow Yoshis can create small [[sand cloud]]s when they hit the ground while they carry a Koopa Shell in their mouths, defeating enemies within the range of the cloud. They are found as Baby Yoshis in [[Star World 3]] and [[Star World 5]].

<!--NOTE TO EDITORS: Please do not change every instance of "Goomba" into "Galoomba", they are not typos, they were mislocalized as such at the time, and please take a look at MarioWiki:Proposals/Archive_47#The_Usage_of_Old_Names_in_Articles and MarioWiki:Naming#Name changes -->

''Super Mario World'' retains some of the enemies from ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', such as the common [[Koopa Troopa]]s and their varieties, Ghost House-dwelling [[Boo]]s, [[Buzzy Beetle]]s in a cave environment, and [[Cheep Cheep]]s underwater, while introducing more species that would regularly appear in later entries in the ''Super Mario'' series, such as [[Magikoopa]]s, [[Fishbone]]s, [[Swoop|Swoopers]], and [[Wiggler]]s. Goombas are featured less prominently in this title and function differently than in prior ''Super Mario'' titles; they are later localized as [[Galoomba]]s. Some of the new enemies introduced are variants of other species, such as the cape-wielding and flying [[Super Koopa (enemy)|Super Koopa]]s, the large [[Banzai Bill]]s that are encountered before regular [[Bullet Bill]]s, the spike-donning [[Spike Top]]s, and the [[Lakitu in a Pipe|pipe-inhabiting Lakitus]]. Included with the introduced enemies are various new obstacles, most of which populate the castle and fortress levels in the game, and several of these obstacles would make later appearances in the ''Super Mario'' series, namely [[Grinder]]s and [[Skewer]]s.

The bosses of the game are comprised of Bowser's seven children, the [[Koopalings]], all who guard a castle at the end of every world, and [[Reznor]]s, the guardians of the fortresses. The Koopalings share the same boss patterns with another Koopaling pair, with the exception of Ludwig, though the later-encountered Koopaling of the shared boss fight has a more difficult variant of the fight. Reznor boss fights are all the same, regardless of which fortress is played on. Once the Koopalings are beaten, a small cutscene plays where Mario rescues a trapped Yoshi inside an egg and destroys the Koopalings' fortifications through various means, unique for each Koopaling. For example, Iggy's Castle crumbles in a typical fashion when Mario hits a TNT switch; Ludwig's Castle rockets off and crashes into a nearby hill, causing a bandage to appear where it impacted; while Roy's Castle causes an accidental explosion to Mario instead. The levels cannot be normally played again once cleared, though in international versions, they can be replayed if the player holds {{button|snes|L}} and {{button|snes|R}} on the castle's remains. Bowser, the primary antagonist of the game, can be fought at both the [[Front Door]] and [[Back Door]], though the Back Door is a far shorter level that provides almost direct access to the boss.

|Boss of castle #3, located in the Vanilla Dome. He pops randomly out of seven pipes along with two fake versions of himself.

|Boss of castle #4, located on the Twin Bridges. He spins around the room in his shell, stopping to shoot fireballs.

|Boss of castle #6, located on Chocolate Island. Like Lemmy, she pops randomly out of seven pipes along with two fake versions of herself.

|The final boss. He hovers above in his [[Koopa Clown Car]], dropping Mechakoopas, Big Steelies, and [[Fire Breath|Flames]].

There is a total of six power-ups that provide transformations in the game, with one being exclusive to Yoshi. Most power-ups emerge from the blocks populated in levels, and players are able to carry an extra item in their [[Item Storage|reserve slot]] if they are already powered up. While the [[Super Mushroom]], [[Fire Flower]], and [[Super Star]] return, ''Super Mario World'' introduces the Cape Feather, which gently floats down when it appears onscreen as well as being able to be spawned from defeating a [[Super Koopa (enemy)|Super Koopa]] with a flashing cape. The new [[Power Balloon]] is a rare item used in a few levels and serves as a temporary transformation for Mario and Luigi.

{|width=100% cellspacing=0 border=2 cellpadding=3 style="border-collapse:collapse;background:white"

|Yoshi's Wings grant Yoshi the ability to [[Winged Yoshi|fly]] and enter [[Coin Heaven]]. They turn any Yoshi blue after completion, making this the only way to get a Blue Yoshi outside the Star World.

{|width=100% cellspacing=0 border=2 cellpadding=3 style="border-collapse:collapse;background:white"

|If Mario or Luigi collects one, he will get an extra life. These mushrooms may also come from eggs if Mario or Luigi is already riding Yoshi as either brother finds them from a block/passes them by.

|If Mario or Luigi collects one of these very rare items, they both get three extra lives.

|If Mario or Luigi passes nearby a lone egg, it will hatch into a Baby Yoshi. The player must feed the Baby Yoshi either five enemies, shells, coins, or active Grab Blocks, or a single power-up for it to grow into an adult Yoshi. Every time a Baby Yoshi eats something other than a power-up, the player will receive a coin and '''200''' points.

|align="center"|[[Berry|Berries]]

|Eating ten Red Berries in one stage will cause Yoshi to lay an egg with a Super Mushroom. Two Pink Berries will produce a [[Yoshi Cloud]]. Green Berries add '''20''' seconds to the time limit. A berry is also worth the same as a coin.

|When Mario or Luigi collects 100 coins, he will get a 1-Up.

|If Mario or Luigi collects all ten Bonus Coins thrown by the Yoshi Cloud, it will throw a 1-Up Mushroom.

|If Mario or Luigi collects all five Dragon Coins or more on one stage, he will get a 1-Up. '''1,000''' points are awarded, then double for each one collected.

|Jumping on one will allow Mario or Luigi to jump much higher than normal.

|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.

|When the blue Switch Block is pressed, [[Empty Block|blocks]] transform into coins and vice versa. If a Gray P Switch is pressed, most basic enemies, such as [[Spiny|Spinies]], transform into Gray Coins. After a short period of time, the changes made by either switch revert to normal.

|Marks the end of the level. Players who hit the moving bar get awarded [[Goal Star|Bonus Star]]s depending on the position it is hit in; players who get 100 Bonus Stars have the opportunity to play a bonus game.

|A block that causes the players to automatically jump. When the jumping is timed right, players can jump even higher, acting similarly to a [[Trampoline|Jumping Board]]. Some Jump Blocks contain power-ups within them, which can be activated by hitting them as normal blocks or by touching them.

|A block that gives out [[Tourist Tips]], which are designed to help players learn the game.

|Gives a variety of items when hit, such as [[coin]]s, power-ups, and other items. Once depleted, it turns into a brown Empty Block. Some Prize Blocks are [[Coin Block]]s that contain a total of 10 coins. Some Prize Blocks are hidden and are revealed either if the player hits them or if they are activated by a Switch Block.

|A pipe that can lead players to another area of the level if they either duck or jump into one. Some Warp Pipes contain varieties of Piranha Plants or Lakitus. Some large, diagonal Warp Pipes launch players.

{|width=100% cellspacing=0 border=2 cellpadding=3 style="border-collapse:collapse;background:white"

|At the end of levels that are not castles or fortresses, if players receive 100 [[Goal Star|Bonus Star]]s at the [[Giant Gate]]s, they play a minigame that gives them the opportunity to earn bonus lives.

While composer [[Koji Kondo]] had created many different melodies for ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', he decided to use the [[Ground Theme (Super Mario World)|same melody]] in ''Super Mario World'', albeit in an {{wp|arrangement|arranged}} form, assuming that the player would be able to recognize the melody while being exposed to new variations of music throughout the game.<ref name="iwata asks kondo">[https://www.nintendo.co.uk/Iwata-Asks/Iwata-Asks-Super-Mario-All-Stars/Vol-1-Super-Mario-History-Soundtrack-CD/5-Music-Commentary-by-Koji-Kondo-2-/5-Music-Commentary-by-Koji-Kondo-2--220040.html Iwata Asks: Music Commentary by Koji Kondo].

A [[Super Mario World (album)|compilation soundtrack]] for ''Super Mario World'' was released in Japan on February 25, 1991, and it contains original jazz arrangements composed by musician Soichi Noriki and performed by the "Mario Club Band"; the album additionally contains music from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' and ''Super Mario Bros. 3''. The arrangements are recorded on the album's first disc, while the second disc contains the original compositions. The music was also included on ''[[Nintendo Super Famicom Game Music]]'', another Japan-only album released in 1992 that contains music from various games released for the SNES. ''[[Super Mario Compact Disco]]'', a compilation soundtrack released originally in Japan on August 1, 1993, contains pieces that remixes and rearranges music sampling sound effects from the game into a funk and hip-hop-oriented genre with lyrics. ''Super Mario World'' music has been featured in several of the ''Nintendo Sound Selection'' series, namely ''[[Nintendo Sound Selection Vol.2: Loud Music]]'' and ''[[Nintendo Sound Selection: Endings & Credits]]'', and in several ''Mario'' anniversary soundtracks, such as ''[[Happy! Mario 20th - Super Mario Sound Collection]]'' and ''[[The 30th Anniversary Super Mario Bros. Music]]''.

The soundfont used for the ''Super Mario World'' soundtrack consists of the following instrument samples: the piano, pan flute, brass, and clarinet from the {{wp|Kawai K1R}} module; the fantasia synth, arco strings, bass marimba, and slap bass from the {{wp|Roland D-550}} synthesizer; the honky-tonk, steel drum, and oud from the {{wp|Roland L-CD1}}; and the dry kick, impact snare, reverb snare, closed hi-hat, and open low conga from the {{wp|Roland R-8}} drum machine. An orchestra hit sample from unknown equipment by {{wp|E-mu Systems}} is also present, and it was used to construct Yoshi's record-scratching voice effect. The cannon sound used for the thunder effects is of unknown origin, but is currently part of the Soundstorm Sound Effects Library; it is the first professional film sound effect to be sampled in a Nintendo game. The origins of the fretless bass used in the overworld theme and the heavy guitar used in the final boss theme are currently unknown.<ref>https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1JJBlHHDc65fhZmKUGLrDTLCm6rfUU83-kbuD8Y0zU0o/edit?pli=1#gid=717751203</ref>

23 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.<ref name="TCRF"/>

The game was produced by [[Shigeru Miyamoto]], featuring music composed by [[Koji Kondo]] and graphics designed by [[Shigefumi Hino]], and it was the first game designed for the SNES. As an experiment, the team ported ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' to the console, and it felt like the same game to them despite the enhanced graphics, so they wanted to create something new for the console. Miyamoto has stated that ever since they finished ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', the design staff wanted to have Mario ride a horse. It was believed to be impossible technically until the SNES was developed, and it was changed to a dinosaur due to the team working with a dinosaur land.<ref>Takashi Tezuka, Shigefumi Hino and Hisashi Nogami.

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''.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0MbGdkbeEU This local news segment displays the ''Super Mario World'' title screen with the typo'd "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.<ref>[https://www.engadget.com/2010/11/09/super-mario-world-is-miyamotos-favorite-mario-game ''Super Mario World'' is Miyamoto's favorite ''Mario'' game], retrieved 6/22/2018</ref><ref>[http://www.ign.com/articles/2012/06/15/this-is-shigeru-miyamotos-favorite-mario-game This is Shigeru Miyamoto's Favorite ''Mario'' Game], retrieved 6/22/2018</ref>

[[Dinosaur Land]] was drastically different from 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 House]]s (which could possibly mean that [[Toad (species)|Toads]] were once considered to populate Dinosaur Land) and more ''Super Mario Bros. 3''-style [[fortress]]es. In addition to this, the game originally had the subtitle "''Super Mario Bros. 4''" on the Title Screen.

[[File:Sorbetislandbug.png|thumb|Image of the miscolored overworld glitch.]]

The balls on [[Iggy]]'s and [[Larry]]'s platforms can be destroyed by the sliding attack, as can the [[Grinder]]s (using a triangular 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 nosedive in the second level of the [[Bowser]] battle. The [[Big Steely]] is defeated as a red sprite of [[Princess Peach|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 this is 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 the [[Forest of Illusion]] or the [[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 (Super Mario World)|Star Road]].

[[File:SMWEdibleDolphin.png|thumb|Yoshi can eat the Dolphins in the Japanese version.]]

*Yoshis can eat the [[Dolphin]]s 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.

*[[Donut Plains 2]] has an added [[! Block]] after the three [[? Block|Prize Block]]s near the beginning of the level. Similarly, [[Vanilla Dome 1]] has an added [[Cape Feather]] in one of the [[Rotating Block]]s in the structure found early in the level in the international version.

*[[3 Lemmy's Castle|#3 Lemmy's Castle]] has a time limit of 400 seconds instead of 300 seconds. [[Funky (level)|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.

*[[Morton Koopa Jr.|Morton]], [[Roy Koopa|Roy]], and [[Ludwig von Koopa|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.

*Iggy is accidentally given [[Larry Koopa|Larry]]'s hair, leaving Iggy's [[List of Super Mario World pre-release and unused content|unused]] except for in the credits. This error remains in the GBA version. Iggy is also incorrectly blue.

*Due to how [[Chargin' Chuck]]s' 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. However, when running, their shoulders have a blue palette very briefly. They also have a star in their artwork, which is absent in their sprites.

*The two lower tiles on the back-facing [[climbing Koopa]]s 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 are not oriented as they are in the front-facing sprites.

*[[Big Boo]]s have lower fangs and white eyes in their sprites, but they have the same faces as normal [[Boo]]s in their artwork.

*[[Bony Beetle]]s have the same falling-apart animation as Dry Bones, with Dry Bones' heads being particularly conspicuous.

He has praised the graphics, describing them as "colorful" and "cute" and stands out as one of the best-looking games of the system, saying that the visuals still hold to the modern era; he has praised that the game's music is some of the best the ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' series has ever seen, calling the tunes "supercatchy".

However, Thomas felt that ''Super Mario World'' does feel lacking, and he pointed out how Miyamoto felt he could have done more to the game to distinguish it from being a graphically-upgraded continuation of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and that during the time, Nintendo's competitor, [[Sega]], took advantage of it and introduced ''[[sonicretro:Sonic the Hedgehog (16-bit)|Sonic the Hedgehog]]''.

Jamie O' Neill of Nintendo Life gave the game a 10/10, writing about the game's legacy and history when it was first released and that the game is still playable today; he has written that while many games can be considered "classics", only a few can be considered "masterpieces" which O' Neill has referred to as.<ref>O' Neill.

He has praised Koji Kondo's efforts on the soundtrack, where the themes are diverse and they carry on various moods, such as the atmospheric Ghost Houses and the energized credits tune that settles into a "beautiful melancholy" when the characters reach Yoshi's House to conclude their adventure. He has called the game's controls "perfect" and that the game's meticulous secrets lend it a long-lasting appeal. O' Neill has then mentioned that the game scored number 2 on Nintendo Life's 20 debut SNES games from the [[Nintendo Switch Online]].

[[File:Box NA - Super Mario World Super Mario Advance 2.png|thumb|Box for ''Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2'', the Game Boy Advance remake for ''Super Mario World''.]]

The game was ported to the Nintendo Super System, an arcade machine, in 1991. It is the only ''Mario'' title released on this system. There are a few differences such as a message on the title screen letting the player know what version it is. Players can choose one of seven zones to start in. There is no way to save progress and a timer counts down on the bottom right corner when play begins, which reappears when time is almost up. Afterwards, a screen will appear asking if the player wants to continue by inserting coins.

''Super Mario World'' was remade for the [[Game Boy Advance]] as the second installment in the ''[[Super Mario Advance (series)|Super Mario Advance]]'' series, ''[[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2]]''. Some of the more notable changes include new sprites for Luigi, the maximum number of lives being 999 that can now be saved, and a list of levels showing whether the secret exit and the [[Dragon Coin]]s have been found.

===''4koma Manga Kingdom''===

[[File:SuperMario4K11.jpg|thumb|left|100px|Book one of the ''Super Mario'' portion of the ''4koma Manga Kingdom'' series.]]

The Japanese manga series ''[[4koma Manga Kingdom]]'' has a series called ''Super Mario'', in which its seven entries have stories and gags based off ''Super Mario World''.

The ''[[Super Mario 4koma Manga Theater]]'' is another Japanese 4koma series that features many 4-panel visual gags based off ''Super Mario World''. For example, one comic has Mario running out of time just as he was about to face Iggy Koopa, as Iggy Koopa dives into Mario: the mometum causes Iggy Koopa to fall into the lava and get defeated as well.

''[[Super Mario-kun]]''{{'}}s first six volumes are all based on ''Super Mario World'', kick-starting the series and being the game with the most arcs associated with it. While the first four arcs follow the games closely, with each arc having the characters travel through the game's locations, the fifth and sixth arcs have their own storylines that feature content from other ''Mario'' titles released at the time such as ''[[Yoshi (game)|Yoshi]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Kart]]''.

''Super Mario World'' has [[Super Mario World (television series)|an animated television series]] produced by [[DIC Entertainment|DIC]], being the last of the ''Mario'' cartoons DIC has produced. It has aired from September 14, 1991 to December 7, 1991, featuring 13 episodes, the least amount of the ''Mario'' cartoons. While it has faithful elements to the original series, the cartoon has a focus on common prehistoric stereotypes and themes such as the Mario characters living with cavepeople and relying on anachronistic themes to introduce to the cavepeople such as cars, television, and telephones.
