Super Mario World |OT| Did you ever see a dinosaur fly?

This game was a large part of my early years, but looking back, it was extremely easy and seemed a bit short on levels compared to SMB3. I struggled for months as a 9 year old trying to beat SMB3, but I beat SMW on Christmas Day hours after opening it. Still a great game, just felt it seemed a little weaker than SMB3. Still the tighest 2d controls ever.
I like the bird levels just fine, but the ball ones can go to hell. Especially the one in World S, oh goddddddddddddddddddddd bad memories

If I had to choose a hard part of this game, it would be fighting these things and letting that floor practically disintegrate the entire way. I've gotten extremely lucky quite a few times.
Oh man, these guys always frighten me in a way, do to them being so hard. Which is why I found them in NSMB2 to be disappointing. Heck, you could kill them all in the 3DS game without floor going away...
What kind of up scaling is going on, if any? Does the Wiiu version output in 1080p?
I'm a retro snob with an XRGB, so I'm already getting 1080p upscaled SNES games... But if the WiiU is doing even greater justice to these classics, I might pick up a few.
Also, game pad lag... Is there any?

Lol, there's something kind of funny about an OT for a game from 1991.
SMW is easily one of the best platformers ever. If only the NSMB series played a bit more like it.

Gamepad normally has less lag than your tv, but I've heard reports of lag in Super Mario World's case. Can anyone confirm this?

There is a little bit.
Just enough for it to be slightly annoying at times, but not enough that it hurts the game.

Yes.
No lag from my time playing.
EDIT
Regarding lag, I have Game Mode set to ON my tv. I assume if this wasn't on that there would be some type of lag.

No you don't. Just use some skill with the feather.
I was shocked when I heard the Yoshi alternative.
We need more OTs for classic games. The Earthbound one is going to massive.
And the Yoshi method to get to Soda has always been "the" method. Hell, it's even used in the Mario Mania guide Nintendo published back in 1991.
If you guys can, find yourselves a copy

I have that!
Poor form, sir. I understand that you may see SMW as the pinnacle of the franchise; but to say that there hasn't been a "good" Mario game since the early SNES days is just plain incorrect.

When I saw this thread, I was kind of hoping everyone would do it "in character," as if the game really was a new release getting it's OT.
I wanted to post about how I thought that getting rid of the P-meter was a bad decision because it makes it harder to judge your run-up for takeoff, maybe mention how much fun I'm having doing speedruns in Sonic the Hedgehog while disclaiming being a console warrior.
Oh well.

There's a lot of optional levels, Star World/Special World... pretty sure there's more content than SMB3.

Nah, we're in character. Nobody said anything about getting rid of the P-meter, because it was a good decision.
Mario World is the better game. Much better pacing.

That was what I had hoped, then the first post happened.
Well, it took 3 pages, but someone finally spotted that. Well done.
So?
Some E-Reader level?
I really feel pretty bad for you about that.
All that work into a thread and then someone can shit post the first comment in 30 seconds.

Love this game so much. It's magic. Still play it to this day.
Bit of a comparison:
Luigi looked too confident, I guess.
I actually did not know this. I've never played the combo cart my SNES came with All-Stars and Mario World on separate carts as a bundle.

A mod. Scarily enough, the majority of "Super Mario World" images on Google Images were stuff like that, rather than ones from the vanilla game.

I want this on my Genesis! Can you imagine how this game would look like on Genesis hardware? So much wasted potential. Though the new Sonic will probably kick this game's ass.
Since I don't remember them, I'd say hacksWhich level are these? 0.o
Best 2D Mario of all time!
And this is why I won't be picking it up for the Wii U anytime soon. Just picked me up a SMAS+W cart and have been playing through the entire game as Luigi.

I really hope my mom gets home early from work so we have time to go to Toys R Us. This will be my most prized yellow ticket of all time. Longest day of school everrrrr today.
;P

Funny because having played both versions, I prefer the SMW Mario clone since I grew up with him

Are you kidding? The music would suck on the Genesis, which is called the Mega Drive here, or Mug-o-Drive according to Nintendo magazines. Mario rules, Sonic drools.
Whatever dude. Have you ever heard of Streets of Rage? Axel the white guy would beat the shit out of Mario.
Nuh uh, dude, Blast Processing means Mario could run faster and the game would be easier.

I want to play a SMW2 that looks like this.
Super Nintendont cant handle Blast Processing.

I wish Nintendo stuck with this art for their new platformers. I would love a new 2D Mario game that went the same direction as Rayman, but it won't happen because 2D doesn't sell

Yeah yeah yeah, more Mario games. When the hell are Nintendo going to get around to releasing a new Zelda or Metroid?! Zelda II was a joke, and I hear the next Metroid game's going to be on Gameboy?
