Upon its release in 1992, Super Mario World set the benchmark for platform games throughout the 90s. Simple to play yet challenging to master, Super Mario World stands the test of time with its 70+ levels riddled with secrets. Join Mario and Luigi on their trek through Dinosaur Island to rescue Princess Peach from the diabolical Bowser. Also lending a hand is Yoshi, seen here for the first time as a ride for our heroes, who can gobble up enemies and spit fireballs. Super Mario World also introduced the cape power-up that bestows the power of flight, and also the option to hold a power-up in reserve for when you need it most. Renowned by press and public alike as one of the greatest games ever made, Super Mario World is a true classic now available on Virtual Console.
