Flashback to the Christmas 1993. I first received my Super Nintendo, and Super Mario World came with the console (this was back when you got the system and a game all in one box for $129.00). I played this game for hours, and I eventually beaten it in about 3 years, due to on and off play. Eventually I sold my system and all my games. But just recently I decided to pick up "Super Mario World" on gameboy advance about a week ago. The game is still fun to play. You get the traditional powers like the mushroom and the fire flower. The new addition you receive is a cape (if you played Super Mario 3, it is exactly the racoon tail power). Also this game introduced Yoshi and his friends (different color Yoshis). There are also newer enemies in this game that may come pretty tough to beat. Whats also good is that you can store powers in that blue box at the top of the screen, which can come in handy as well.
There are some modifications on the GBA than the SNES versions. One that stood out to
...
me was that you can either play with Mario or Luigi on any level, and you can switch them out whenever you feel. Also if you played with Luigi, you'll notice the awkward jump that he has (if you played Super Mario 2, you'll remember that the way he jumped he kicked his legs in the air. He does that on here as well). Another modification is that the game is much easier as it was on SNES. When Mario or Luigi was hit by an enemy of some kind, they would return back small on the SNES. Here on the GBA version, if you're hit, you'll return back to Super Mario or Luigi (you'll return to the power that you have when you received the mushroom), making you have more chances before you loose a life. One other modification I seemed to notice is that if you beat any Star Road levels (on the map screen you'll see a star that will take you to some hidden levels), you remember that is where you can get the different color Yoshi's (red, blue, and yellow). Well here on the GBA, the Star Road levels are not the only place you can access the diffent color Yoshi's. You can actually get them almost on any level now. If you know what item boxes on the levels that will pop out a Yoshi, you can get them in different colors now. Thats actually a good thing to me now, because they are more accessable than having to only go to one place. Also Yoshi can eat and spit out more items now, which is also a good thing as well. Also the characters talk, which I'm getting used to now.
Well I'm glad I have this game. It is very fun to play. It takes me back to my child hood days when I had this on SNES. I've already beaten this game (I took the Star Road shortcut). This game is pretty easier than it was on SNES. I love it and I recommend it to all ages.
Also this game come with the Arcade version of Super Mario. That is the game where you hit the enemies from underneith and go up and kick them for points. I think they put that in every Super Mario advance games for GBA. This game will keep you occupied for a while and will bring lots of fun to your playing experience.
