"One of the best Mario games ever made"

Super Mario World has always been one of my favorite Mario titles. It is actually my favorite 2D Mario game. Having not played it since getting rid of my Super Nintendo many moons ago, I was really excited to pick up this GBA version.
Sweet nostalgia.
The game is just as good as I remember. Colorful and vibrant 2D sprites, mode-7 effects, fantastic music, and super tight controls.
The game is full of secrets to find as well, since most levels have the regular "exit" as well as a hidden one.
I am playing the game on a DS Lite and I do have a small issue with the controls. Since this is actually a GBA game and that device only had two face buttons, the "X" button from the SNES game is mapped to the "R" trigger instead. The DS Lite does have "X" and "Y" buttons like the SNES pad, but there is obviously no "customize controls" option in the game, so you have to stick with the default setting of using the R trigger. Also, given the orientation of the buttons on the DS Lite, it would be far more comfortable to have "run/action" as the "Y" button and jump as the "B" button (like in New Super Mario Bros.). But again, you can't change it. So you are stuck with "run/action" on B and jump on A, which can be a bit uncomfortable.
That being said, this is 2D Mario at its best. I picked the game up used here on Amazon for under $8 and it was well worth the price.

Personally I would've preferred this game in its original format, but this is still fun to play. Any old-school gamer would get a sense of nostalgia just playing this remake, and some of the added features make this game more fun than the original.
"A very good transfer for a classic! "

I've already reviewed the original Super Mario World so I don't want to repeat myself in this review of the GBA version of the game.
I'll keep this simple. This is a GREAT transfer of the original Super Mario World originally released on the SNES. All the graphics are brought back to life on the small screen and the control are practically EXACTLY the same as the SNES. I have seen some BAD ports of classic games, but this is one of the few that I can say could only be better if it were the original. This is a great game to have if you don't already on it on the SNES, or just want to play this game on the go.
