The first video game I actually recall playing. My nostalgic bias towers over anything that can be considered a flaw, as I thought this game was incredible back then, and still love to go back to it now.

While my childhood self enjoyed the platforming fun and crazy challenges ahead, my adult self loves figuring out exploits, most especially with the cape-flying mechanics. AKA the greatest thing designed in any game ever.

Between the unique soundtrack, dazzling visuals, and fantastically designed stages, it's hard to say what I love the most about Super Mario World.
