Just went up on Switch Online so I had to do a quick run and beat bowser (with rewinding)

Still an incredible game! Feels weird that I still know all the exits! If there's a romhack of the snes version with the extra audio sound effects, replayable castles, and playable Luigi I'd love it. Playing it on a switch has me noticing for the first time that the colors are super washed out for the GBA Screen and the audio does sound more tinny even being emulated.

This game does have some changes from the original, there's extra checkpoints and the layouts are slightly different (like the secret donut world ghost house has a yoshi coin by the secret exist door) but still a great way to experience the game

Shouts out to Blargg! This, technically, isn’t my first game. However! This is the game I’ve had for the longest. I still have the same cartridge I got some twenty years ago for Christmas, and despite my young self having a knack for misplacing games and cartridges, I was quickly sentimental, and knew to never give this one up. It’s been a while since I’ve beaten this game. Like, probably not since I went and found every secret level back in my teen years, but recently I’ve been wanting to play it again.

I’m a huge sucker for world maps, probably because of this game. I mean, my two favorite Fire Emblem games both have world maps, I love the look of this game so much, and the look of the world, too. Rediscovering a lot of the secrets of the world map, finding all of the switch palaces, taking different routes through worlds. It’s so, so great. I’m not really into Mario games, all that much. They’ve never sucked me in at all or enticed me all that much. I didn’t own a single entry in the “New” series of 2D games, I’ve not even played Sunshine, Galaxy, or Odyssey, lol. Though, hoo boy, Super Mario Bros. Wonder looks absolutely so grand.

So pretty, so charming, so tricky, but never frustrating, for me, in an unfun way. Had a blast going through this. I am not a Mario game fan, I would say, but I feel very proud to be a Super Mario Advance 2 expert lol.

Um classico no SNES tambem presente nas telinhas do Game Boy Advance! Já cansei de zerar esse jogo na época do SNES e agora que saiu no switch online resolvi dar uma chance a versão de SNES, apesar de ainda preferir a versão de SNES por conta da paleta de cores ser mais bonita(ou forte) e a trilha sonora ser melhor, eu gostei dessa versão principalmente por terem adicionado as vozes classicas do Mario & Luigi no jogo que eu adoro imitar, outras mudanças legais foram a adição de uma intro melhor por jogo na qual vemos os irmãos Marios e a princesa Peach chegando a Ilha dos Yoshis e saindo pra se divertir enquanto a princesa é (novamente) sequestrada, outra adição muito bem vinda é a possibilidade de poder trocar entre o Mario e o Luigi na seleção de fases, coisa que era impossivel no SNES na qual apenas o player 2 jogava com o Luigi. Fora essas mudanças é o mesmo SMW de sempre, com suas classicas frases, gameplay gostosinha, viciante e muito bem polida, level designe muito bom e trilha excelente(ainda que inferior ao do SNES por motivos do chipset do GBA ser mais fraco se não me engano).

There's not much to say, it's an excellent conversion of Super Mario World from SNES to GBA. It plays just as well and the only thing that makes it an inferior version compared to the original is that the audio quality is worse, the fact that the colors look very pale or that the field of view has been reduced, which has a solution because you can move the camera with the L button.

The things I like about this version is that it adds a list to see the status of the levels by pressing the select button on the world map, and the fact that you can play as Luigi, being a change of gameplay with respect to Mario.

What disappoints me and stops me from giving it a higher rating is the fact that it doesn't have that "deluxe" treatment that Super Mario Bros. on GBC or Super Mario 2 on GBA does, this port on the other hand comes without any add-ons, extra content, new mechanics or anything relevant new to highlight, which makes it a version that's only worth it if you play on a real GBA, because at the end of the day it's an inferior version to the original with nothing to really make up for it beyond portability. If you plan on playing Super Mario World on Switch or Wii U, you're better off going for the SNES version.

Conclusion
Despite being an inferior version to the original, it really is still a great way to experience Super Mario World, whether it's your first time playing it or you've played this game before, after all it's still Super Mario World, and it's one of the best platformers that's for sure.
