   Summary: Another successful Mario port.
One of Nintendo's big money makers is porting their old games over to new systems. Specifically, the Super Mario Advance games have been a huge hit. Super Mario Advance 2 brings over two games to the Game Boy Advance. The first, Mario Brothers, is so simple that it's basically a mini-game. The real draw here is Super Mario World, one of the most popular Mario games ever -- and for good reason.

Super Mario World is not exactly ground breaking. It uses the same formula and plot from Super Mario Brothers and Super Mario Brothers 3. However, it is an immense adventure, which lots of hidden levels and plenty to explore even after you've defeated Bowser. It also introduces some new moves to the Mario brothers, such as a spinning jump that can break bricks from above. Moreover, it introduces one of the more enduring characters of the Mario franchise, Yoshi. The one thing I think it's really missing is the variety of suits and powers that came with Super Mario brothers 3. Super Mario World only has three power-ups: the super mushroom, the fire flower, and the cape, which allows limited flight and works similar to the raccoon leaf of the previous game.

If you've played a Mario game before, it all seems very familiar, but is also a ton of fun. The Mario franchise is one of those special games that doesn't need to break a lot of new ground -- it just needs to keep doing what it's been doing. For those new to the franchise, Super Mario World is a good introduction. While Mario has worked well in 3D games, his roots are with the 2D side-scroller, and Super Mario World helps demonstrate why those games are still fun even today.

   Summary: Super Marioworld
My daughter and son played this game on the SNES system and LOVED IT! It's the very same game but they were no longer able to play it because our SNES is broken. They can now play it on their Ninetendo DS and think it's the bomb!

   Summary: great game, smaller screen but all the fun of the original.
If you remember playing this on the SNES, then it is no different than that. However, you also get the ORIGINAL Mario Bros. game (this is before the level scrolling game, think donkey Kong with spiked shell animals instead of the troopas)

Overall, great game, easy to learn to play and MANY hours of game play (secret levels, bonus games in levels, etc.)

   Summary: Revisting an old classic
This was one of my favorite Mario games. It had been such a long time since I've played this game, It's still just as fun as it was back in the days of the SNES. Memorable Yoshi made his first appearance, the "bouncing" Bowzer final boss in that clown upside down helicopter?.., Trying to get 100%. This game is a classic that no one should be without. I highly recommend this to both the older ones who can reminisce about this classic and the young who never got a chance to play one of the best SNES games.

   Summary: My First Non-DS Review, and a Good One
Growing up in a not-so-financially stable home, the SNES was the only gaming luxury I had growing up, and the only console I've owned until I bought my DS June of last year. So you can imagine the nostalgia that overwhelms me when I picked up this copy (also, because I was poor, the only SNES game I ever owned was Super Mario World, because it came with the console).



What a joy this was. Do I need to delineate on gameplay? It was exactly like the Super Mario of old, save maybe the slightly awkward button positioning for the DS version. The only complaint I had for this game was that after completing the Secret Roads, the worlds don't turn into the Halloween themed layout that you got in the SNES version.



Because of my anal nature, I wish I had nabbed a mint copy of the original version of the GBA Super Mario World, but I was stuck with the Player's Choice Version. Either way, this is a really good game to pick up. If you've played it as a kid, don't expect anything new, as there isn't much new except for the version of Mario that you can play that has the POW block and those spiky monsters.



Great collection piece to own, and at $19.99 is light on the wallet.
