Mario hasn't even had a chance to savor his victory in the original Super Mario Advance, and already he's back for more in Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2. This game is a perfect recreation of the Super NES classic Super Mario World, featuring every last secret exit and all 74 levels of platform fun.

When Super Mario World was released in 1991, it was a massive breakthrough game for its genre. The game's incredible depth and orginality made it an instant success, and even today it stands up to the test of time. Ten years later, other game designers are still striving to create a platform game as intense and challenging as Super Mario World. Its amazing that all of this massive game as been fitted onto one small cardridge.
While planning the perfect vacation on Dinosaur Island, things go awfully wrong for Mario and Luigi when they learn that Princess Peach has once again been kidnapped by the ever-diabolical Bowser. Mario and Luigi set out on a massive adventure to rescue princess. To reach their goal, they'll have to crush Bowser's evil Koopalings and solve some of the most challenging puzzles they've ever faced.
When you first start your quest you will find your self on a 3D island, from where you enter each level. When you enter the first level you will hear all the orginal catchy Mario tunes and sound effects. The levels are bright, colourful, detailed and theres never a dull moment. One of the best features of the game is that you get to rid yoshi, who is of great help as he proctects mario and eats nearly every enemy. During the game there are item boxes you can hit, which unleash one of the following: Feather, which can make float, flower, which can make you throw fire balls, and a star, which makes you Invincible against anything. Below is the overall sum up of the game:
Bad Points: It may be a bit easy for the more experienced gamer.
Graphics: 9.7/10 the graphics are detailed, bright and bold
Sound: 9.8/10, the sounds are brilliant with tunes that you will be humming for weeks.

A gaming classic, argued by many to be the best 2D Mario game ever
