What I'm Playing (Volume 47): Super Mario World


For the second time in less than a year, I beat Super Mario World again, and I now officially have a (very good) problem. I've already reviewed this game gushingly before, but I want to leave documentation that I've beaten it again, and this time made a big effort to try to explore its secrets more deeply. I'll still be tooling around with trying to find all of the secret exits and find all of the different colored Yoshis in the next few days, but boy, did I love it every bit as much as the first time again. I always turn this game on when I've had a bad day, am losing my temper with my kids or my wife, lose a few bucks in poker, or just am generally bored with whatever game I'm playing, and it never fails to improve my day. If you haven't played it, I can attest that it's one of the finest artistic achievements of all time, and you need to do so immediately.

I'm still working through some long RPGs at the moment, but I'll be back soon!
