'''''Super Mario World''''' is a 2D action-adventure platform game and a launch title released for the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]] in 1990, developed by [[Nintendo Entertainment Analysis and Development|Nintendo EAD]]. It is the sixth entry in the [[Super Mario (series)|''Super Mario'' series]]<ref name=encyclopedia>Kazuya Sakai (Ambit), kikai, Akinori Sao, Junko Fukuda, Kunio Takayama, and Ko Nakahara ({{wp|Shogakukan}}) (ed.). ''[[Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia|Encyclopedia Super Mario Bros.]]'' Milwaulkie: [[Dark Horse Comics|Dark Horse Books]], 2018. ISBN: 978-4-09-106569-8.</ref> and a direct sequel to ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. In being a sequel, 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 overall game was meant to be modeled after an action movie franchise, as can be inferred by the Japanese version of the Koopaling defeat scenes as well as the summary on the back of the Japanese box.

 

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. Many of the game's introduced characters, game mechanics, and artistic themes influenced later titles in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]], where the character Yoshi was popular enough to receive [[Yoshi (franchise)|a series starring him]]. 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''. 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, 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.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

''Super Mario World'' is included in the ''[[Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World]]'' compilation title released in December 1994. An enhanced [[Reissue#Ports|port]] of ''Super Mario World'' was later released on the [[Game Boy Advance]] as part of the [[Super Mario Advance (series)|''Super Mario Advance'' series]], titled ''[[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2]]''. The original version was also rereleased on the [[Wii]]'s [[Virtual Console#Wii|Virtual Console]] in 2006, the [[Wii U]]'s [[Virtual Console#Wii U|Virtual Console]] in 2013, and the [[Nintendo 3DS#New Nintendo 3DS/New Nintendo 3DS XL|New Nintendo 3DS]]'s [[Virtual Console#Nintendo 3DS|Virtual Console]] in 2016. ''Super Mario World'' is one of the included titles in the [[Classics#Super NES Classic Edition|SNES Classic Edition]] and [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System - Nintendo Switch Online]], the latter of which also includes a version titled ''Super Mario World: Give the world a whole new look!'', which was released on March 31, 2022, and begins in [[Fall]] with 99 lives and a [[Cape Feather]] in the [[item storage|Item Stock]].

''Super Mario World'' is the only sequel in the ''Super Mario'' series to take place directly after the events of a previous entry. After [[Bowser]]'s previous defeat, Mario, [[Luigi]], and [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] decide to recuperate in [[Dinosaur Land]]. Meanwhile, in Dinosaur Land, Bowser 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 Toadstool is missing. While searching, they find the [[Koopa Troop]]. Upon the Mario Bros. freeing the friendly Yoshi, he exclaims that the [[Koopa (species)|Koopas]] have invaded, confirming that Bowser has indeed returned and taken the opportunity to claim the princess.

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 when the player uses 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 tape between the gate, he gets awarded [[Goal Star|Bonus Star]]s depending on how high the tape is when he touches 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|Item Stock]], 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 [[Small Mario|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, and not making it to the goal in time. Every time Mario gets defeated, he gets sent back to the world map.

''Super Mario World'' retains the world map system from ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' with more expanded features. Rather than having levels and worlds segmented, all worlds and levels are seamlessly connected to each other, with a heavier focus on multiple paths per level clearance, and thus creating a less linear map, with a few exceptions. Typically, prior to entering new areas, Mario has to defeat a [[castle]] boss, usually one of Bowser's seven children, the Koopalings. Once they are defeated, the castles they reside in are destroyed and cannot be replayed, though in international versions of the game, they can be replayed if players hold {{button|snes|L}} and {{button|snes|R}} on the castles' remains.

''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|Exclamation Mark 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.

Star World and the [[Special Zone]] are bonus worlds that are accessed when players find secret exits throughout Dinosaur Land, and are represented by glowing stars, where the player can warp into. The Star World levels require the player to find a [[key]] and [[keyhole]] secret exit to progress through it, while the Special Zone is a linear area that is unlocked when players complete all of Star World's secret exits. The Special Zone levels are much more difficult relative to the levels in this game; none of the levels contain [[Midway Gate]]s, and some can be long while others use level gimmicks.

|align=left colspan=4 height=75%|Yoshi's Island is mainly a grassy plains-related world that does not contain any underwater levels. The main enemies in this world include [[Monty Mole]]s, [[Koopa Troopa]]s, [[Rex]]es, and a few others. [[Iggy Koopa|Iggy]] is found in his castle at the end of this world. Completing this world leads to Donut Plains. This world also contains the Yellow Switch Palace. This is the only world (along with the Special Zone) not to have any secret exits.

|align="center"|[[File:Dolphin.png]]

|align="center"|[[Dolphin]]

|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 cannot be eaten in international versions. They appear in Vanilla Secret 3 and a small section at the end of Chocolate Island 1.

|align="center"|[[File:SMWPrincessPeachSprite.png]]

|align="center"|[[File:Green Yoshi.png]]

|align="center"|[[Yoshi]]

|Mario's sidekick who requests for Mario's assistance. After he is freed from his egg, he can give rides for Mario or Luigi and eat intrusive enemies.

In addition to Mario and Luigi, [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]s of four different colors appear in the game, and they can 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. A Yoshi can additionally provide a Yoshi Boost<ref>''[[Mario Mania]]'' Nintendo Player's Guide, page 43.</ref> (or Double Jump)<ref>Super NES Nintendo Player's Guide, pages 13 and 15.</ref> to Mario or Luigi if he jumps off the Yoshi. Some levels contain [[Fruit (Yoshi food)|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.

|align="center"|[[File:Green Yoshi.png]]

|align="center"|[[Yoshi]]

|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.

|align="center"|[[File:Red Yoshi.png]]

|align="center"|[[Yoshi (species)|Red Yoshi]]

|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 Mini-Yoshis in [[Star World 1]] and [[Star World 4]].

|align="center"|[[File:Blue Yoshi.png]]

|align="center"|[[Yoshi (species)|Blue Yoshi]]

|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 Mini-Yoshis in [[Star World 2]].

|align="center"|[[File:Yellow Yoshi.png]]

|align="center"|[[Yoshi (species)|Yellow Yoshi]]

|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 Mini-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. Also, 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, [[Fish Bone|Fishbone]]s, [[Swoop]]ers, 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 pipe-inhabiting [[Lakitu]]s. 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.
