In '' | In ''Super Mario World'', the Caped form's abilities are much like those of [[Raccoon Mario]] before it, which in fact was [[List of Super Mario World pre-release and unused content|originally]] going to be in the game. The Caped form can be obtained by getting a [[Cape Feather]]. The '''Cape''' (or '''Magic Cape''')<ref>''[[Prima Games|Playing With Super Power: Nintendo Super NES Classics eGuide]]'', ''Super Mario World'' Characters Tab.</ref> allows Mario (or Luigi) to [[fly]] indefinitely through levels and attack enemies by spinning it around (when the player presses {{button|snes|X}} or {{button|snes|Y}}). | ||
If the player holds down either {{button|snes|A}} or {{button|snes|B}} while falling with Caped Mario, the player can float down slowly. Also, if Mario [[dash|run]]s at maximum speed and then the player presses and holds {{button|snes|A}} to [[Spin Jump|cape-spin]], Mario [[jump]]s very high, as if he were flying. | If the player holds down either {{button|snes|A}} or {{button|snes|B}} while falling with Caped Mario, the player can float down slowly.

Flight is done by running until Mario spreads out his arms, then jumping while holding {{button|snes|Y}}; the initial height depends on how long {{button|snes|B}} was held. Pressing forward on {{button|snes|Pad}} mid-flight makes Mario descend and speed up, while pressing backward on {{button|snes|Pad}} makes him ascend; greater descents generally lead to higher ascents. Mario can also bounce off stomp-able enemies mid-flight. If the player does a '''fast dive'''<ref name=manual>{{cite|language=en-us|publisher=Nintendo of America|title=''Super Mario World'' instruction booklet|page=16|date=1991}}</ref> during flight and slams the ground, it causes a ground shake that instantly defeats all onscreen enemies. If Caped Mario glides more gently towards the ground, he can perform a '''Body Press'''<ref name=manual/> (also called the '''Sliding Cape Attack''').<ref>{{cite|language=en-us|date=August 1991|title=Nintendo ''[[Mario Mania]]'' Player's Guide|page=52|publisher=Nintendo of America}}</ref> If Caped Mario touches an enemy while flying, he automatically cape-spins in midair and falls, instead of taking damage. When the player releases {{button|snes|Y}} and holds {{button|snes|B}}, Mario can stop flying and glide down slowly. After the Cape has attached to Mario's shoes and inflated, he can turn around by spinning mid-flight when the player presses {{button|snes|X}} if {{button|snes|Y}} is being used to fly, or vice versa. If Mario climbs a climbable object while flying, he retains the properties of flight.<ref>{{cite|deadlink=y|archive=web.archive.org/web/20201105122601/https://www.suppermariobroth.com/post/633609656174067712|publisher=Supper Mario Broth|date=November 1, 2020|title=In Super Mario World, properties of flight are conserved while climbing. If Mario clings to a climbable surface while flying, he will resume flying as soon as he lets go.

In the [[ | In the [[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2|GBA version]], Mario can no longer turn around mid-flight, as there is only one run button. Also, Luigi flies higher and more slowly than Mario. | ||
