Super Mario World is the virtually undisputed best game in the Mario franchise. Hell, even the worst of Trolls agree on it being the best of the best! What makes it so great? Lets find out!

The graphics are pure eye candy, so much so that people compare the games graphics with modern day games like Sky rim. The graphics are generally considered the best on the Super Nintendo, and for good reason, they perfectly illustrate the games atmosphere and premise
and helps to keep the player highly immersed in the game.

The Soundtrack is on of the best on the Super Nintendo, and I am not talking about just the songs, I'm taking about the jingles, the sound effects, everything! The Soundtracks nature and tone help it to perfectly mix with the Graphics and Game play to create an ideal gaming experience in terms of sound in this case.

The game is also VERY addicting, imagine a combination of the first 3 Mario Games on CRACK, because that is what this game is in terms of addictiveness. There are Extra items to collect, multiple passage ways, levels to traverse and SO much more that make you want to play this game over and over to get 100%

In terms of Story, There really is not much to say, its your typical '' Go save the princess storyline that the Mario series has had since the beginning. Although it is interesting to note the game brings back the Coop Kids from Mario 3.

Over all, Super Mario World is an instant classic that will hold up until the end of time. Its high addictiveness, flawless game play, gorgeous Graphics and much more make this a near perfect game worthy of a high rating.

I don't think you could simply compare Super Mario World to Skyrim like that. Especially when they're for different systems and different times. xP

But with that said, it's still an incredible game, even to this day. I think it definitely deserves the fame that it has now.

Oh, Leggy would be turning in his grave with that Skyrim comment (if he were dead, that is ). I honestly wouldn't make that comparison because Skyrim clearly has better graphics. Although you can say Super Mario World is to SNES as Skyrim is to Xbox 360/PS3. That is more feasible.

Anyway, Super Mario World really is a great example of a system does it right the first time. The first release of the SNES (in the US) came with Super Mario World, and it was still the highest selling game they came out with. Nintendo has a habit of doing that (Mario 64 ring a bell?).
