The [[Mushroom Kingdom]]s greatest hero, [[Mario]] first came to [[Dinosaur Land|Dinosaur World]] with [[Luigi]] and [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] on a vacational trip.

Loosely based on Super Mario World, the Super Mario World show chronicles the adventures of Mario, Luigi, and Princess Toadstool in Dinosaur Land. Yoshi, Bowser, and a bunch of new characters, such as Oogtar the Caveboy, make an appearance, as well. It was the last of DiC's Super Mario cartoons; it is regarded as the least known of all three of them.

Overview

Sometime after the events of The Adventure of Super Mario Bros. 3 series finale "Super Koopa", King Bowser Koopa, the Koopalings and their armies were banished from the Mushroom Kingdom.

Only for Princess Toadstool to be kidnapped by King Koopa and his minions. After adventuring and befriending Yoshi, Mario and Luigi managed to rescue Princess Toadstool from Bowser's Neon Castle and subsequently decided to stay in Dinosaur Land's Dome City with the cave-people.

Several episodes of Super Mario World often had Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Princess Toadstool and occasionally a show-exclusive character, Oogtar the Caveboy trying to stop the schemes of King Koopa and the Koopalings, as well as other villains such as Wizardheimer or the DinoRiders.
