This game came with my hand-me-down DMG I got for my birthday back in 2001. Thankfully I never made it to the final level back then, pretty sure I would’ve tossed the game out the window after losing 50+ lives. Looking for what I should play next, recommendations welcome :)
I could definitely see this with the map layout and whatnot. Obviously they’ve had the entire super Mario bros (+, 2, etc) series throughout their modern consoles but wonder really, to me, brings back the “woah look at all these new places” type feel back
Say what you will about Nintendo but you gotta admit them keeping around this franchise and keeping it “hot” is pretty impressive
Haha yes definitely not original. I put an IPS screen in it over Christmas. Gave me the push I needed to revisit the GB library on semi-official hardware.
When I was a kid I bought one of these weird magnifying lens/lighting attachments for my game boy so I could play it when I was supposed to be asleep. I know what you did somehow desecrates the historical hardware but if I had the opportunity to get that mod in 1990 then I would’ve done whatever I could to afford that backlit screen!
I never finished this game as a kid . I had this with my original no color gameboy. Not sure how my mom paid for it . But she did go to jail one Christmas for shoplifting so maybe she didn’t lol .

I was really hoping this was going to be a patient gamer shitpost lol
Oh man I was confused and thought there was a sequel for Super Mario World for a second :(
Oh I wish. I think that might be my favourite Mario game of all time. Or maybe Mario 64.
Wasn’t Yoshis Island the sequel to the original Super Mario World on the SNES?
I’ve heard that super Mario Wonder is more of a sequel but yeah I think you’re right.

Exactly what you didn’t know you were looking but, in the back of your mind, you really were.
That screen doesn’t look right unless you messed your console with some new acreen

If you have a way to load Roms into it, you may want to to try ShinPokéRed. A mod fixing bugs and trainer Ai.
Yep I have a flashcart. I’ll def give it a look before I start Red version!

The game always reminds me of being in the hospital getting my adenoids removed in 1992.

Hah! I beat that back in the early 90s when it first came out and again recently using an emulator. It’s a great little game!
