cj_robot | 544 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 (edited) Super Mario World has 16 bits. The kids at school told me that's better than 8. Plus it has dinosaurs. Seems like a no brainer to me. Edited May 29, 2020 by cj_robot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkchylde28 | 1,546 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 I didn't care for (or about) SMW when it came out, still don't to this day, although now I've spent at least an hour or so fooling with it while back in the day I saw my friends playing it and had zero interest. Sim City was the SNES system seller for me, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so much because it no longer had to be done in one sitting, but moreso for the fact that it completely changed the kind of game it was. All previous Mario games were just about getting to the end of each level, and ultimately to beat the final castle. Mario World became more about exploration and hunting down secrets. The ability to save meant you could explore the world at your own pace and I loved having the ability to travel anywhere on the map and replay previous levels. For me, it was a literal game-changer. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to give you props for a strong argument here, although still not enough to sway me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaytToTheParty | 22 Posted May 30, 2020 Author Share Posted May 30, 2020 World just feels way more polished to me, and it certainly has less bs than SMB3. That does make it easier, which I think goes in 3's favor, but to me SMW is just the more enjoyable game. Plus saving. SMB3 definitely gets a medal for originality tho, World felt more like a rehash of SMB3, which I think was one of the reasons the Genesis had a commanding lead for so long. Earlier release, and many at the time just saw World as another Mario game, whereas Sonic was new, had style, and was way more fluid (not to mention faster).

MachineCode | 159 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 World was amazing. Truly an excellent game chock full of amazing features. Secrets within secrets. The first time I got to, the actual Special World (with the crazy levels like tubular and whatnot) I was blown away. Then beating it and having the main game change was another level of awesome (yes I know SMB 1 replaces many turtles with beetles upon completion). Still, despite all this, I feel like SMB 3 just has something that World didn't capture despite adding so much extra. The different worlds that just had so much style and personality compared to SMW. The mini games, the different suits, some of which we've never seen again, the different world map obstacles, the item system. The sheer amount of 1 off gameplay mechanics as well as all the great secrets just make me have to give it to SMB 3. Really 2 masterpieces of video game history that make it so hard to choose. It's like having to choose between a Ferrari and a Lamborghini. Both are just ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdrunner | 422 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 Wow, 38 votes so far and nobody says "they're both great". There's a message here somewhere. Mario 3 all the way for me. I've only even played through SMW maybe a handful of times, but have logged countless runs on 3. Proof is right there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeppelin03 | 314 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 SMB3 gets my vote and I prefer the SNES. You can't argue with the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaytToTheParty | 22 Posted May 30, 2020 Author Share Posted May 30, 2020 Bump. SMB3 takes a commanding lead! I do think SMB3 has better and more diverse stages, but the boss battles in World are leagues better. Look at Reznor vs Boom Boom or Bowser vs Bowser, World just does boss battles better imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
