After saving the Mushroom Kingdom from Bowser and the
rest of the Koopas in
Super Mario 3, Mario and Luigi needed to recuperate from
their adventures.
Together they agreed that the best place to vacation
was a magical place
called Dinosaur Land.
But while Mario and Luigi reclined on the beach for a
relaxing nap, Princess
Toadstool disappeared, apparently seized by evil forces.
After searching for
hours for their missing friend, Mario and Luigi came
upon an enormous egg in
the forest.
Suddenly the egg hatched, and out popped a young dinosaur
named YOSHI, who
proceeded to tell Mario and Luigi a sad tale of how his
dinosaur pals who
were sealed in similar eggs by a group of monsterous
turtles.
"Monsterous turtles!," exclaimed Luigi. "Bowser and his
bunch have
returned!" Mario slowly nodded his head in agreement
and, along with Luigi
and Yoshi, set off across Dinosaur Land to find the Princess
and to free
Yoshi's friends. As they began their journey, Yoshi handed
Mario a beautiful
cape. "This may help you," Yoshi said. "Some say it has
magical powers."
With a little luck (and help from a magic cape), our hearty
crew can defeat
the seven worlds of Bowser's Krazy Koopa Kritters. Many
locations are
well-hidden so explore everywhere and try everything.
Not all locations have
to be explored to rescue the dinosaurs and save Princess
Toadstool, but
there are many "starry" treasures to be found in far-reaching
places. You'll
need to search all areas to find out what kinds of treasure
are there... in
Super Mario World.

PLAYING THE GAME
Insert the Game Pak into the Super Nintendo Entertainment
System (R) and turn
the POWER switch ON. The demo screen shown at the right
will appear. Press
the START Button (or the B or Y Button) and Save Slots
for Mario A, Mario B,
and Mario C will appear. (See page 11 for details.)
Use the Control Pad or SELECT to choose one of the slots
and also whether it
is a 1-player or 2-player game. Then press START to start
the game. The game
consists of map screens and action screens.
* MAP SCREEN
The game begins at Yoshi's house. Move Mario (or Luigi)
by using the Control
Pad. At first, mario can only go left or right from Yoshi's
house. However,
once Mario has cleared some of the areas, he will be
able to move farther
along. Now, go for it!
5
______________________________________________________________________________
If you wish to see the rest of the map, press the START
button and use the
Control Pad to scroll the screen. Press the START Button
again to return to
where you were. (Note: this can't be done in World 1
but can be done in most
later worlds.)
Some points on the map are red. These areas have a normal
goal and a special
goal (or secret keyhole). If you find the special goal,
a new route will
appear on the map. Many of these new routes can be used
as a shortcut.
* ACTION SCREEN
Press the B or Y Button while on the map to enter an area.
If you can get
Mario to the end of the goal safely, the area will be
cleared. Once an area
is cleared, you can return there as many times as you
wish. (except for the
castles and fortresses, which you can only finish once.)
If you go into an
area that has already been cleared, you can return to
the map screen by
pressing START, then SELECT.
6
______________________________________________________________________________
LOSING MARIOS
When you lose all of your Marios, your game is over.
You lose one Mario:
* When Small Mario is touched or bitten by an enemy.
* When Mario falls into a hole.
* When Mario does not reach the goal before the timer
reaches zero.
* When Mario gets pushed off the screen (in the automatic
scrolling areas).
If you are Fire Mario, Caped Mario or Super Mario, being
touched or bitten
by an enemy will transform you back to Small Mario.
COINS
[Small coin with a "1" on it]
Gather 100 regular coins and you'll earn an extra Mario.
[Large coin with Yoshi's face on it]
Gather 5 Dragon Coins in 1 course and you'll earn an
extra Mario. Dragon
coins also count as regular coins.
ITEM STOCK
Sometimes when you hit a block while travelling through
the course, items
that give Mario more power will appear. If you take an
item while Mario
already has extra power, the item will be stocked at
the top of the screen,
but only one item can be held in stock. When Mario is
running out of power,
the stocked item will automatically drop down. You my
press the SELECT Button
to make the item drop down when you want it to.
If Super Mario gets a Fire Flower or Cape Feather, he'll
gain more power,
and the Super Mushroom will be added to the stock. When
Fire Mario takes a
Cape Feather that is in stock ro when Caped Mario takes
a Fire Flower that
is in stock, you can swap items. The process of gaining
more power will be
explained later.
[Red msuhroom] Super Mushroom [Flower] Fire Flower [Feather] Cape Feather

______________________________________________________________________________
MIDWAY GATE AND GOAL
There is a gate in the middle of the course like the one
in the screen to the
right. This is called a Midway Gate. If you break the
tape at this gate, even
if you lose a life before reaching your goal, you can
restart from the Midway
Gate. And, if Small Mario cuts the rope, he'll become
Super Mario!
A moving Giant Gate awaits you at the Goal. Time it right
so that if you
break the tape while it is high in the air and you'll
get Gold Stars
corresponding to that height. If you collect 100 Gold
Stars you get to play
a bonus game where you can get more Marios. And if Mario
can make it to the
goal while on Yoshi's back, they'll start out on the
next course together.
BONUS GAME
Hit all the rotating item blocks from beneath. The idea
is to get a row of
blocks with the same picture to win an Extra 1-Up Mushroom.
It's just like
tic-tac-toe!
[Green Mushroom] Extra Mario Mushroom
You get an extra Mario for every one of these you receive.

______________________________________________________________________________
2-PLAYER GAME
In the 2-player game, Player 1 (with controller 1) is
Mario and Player 2
(with Controller 2) is Luigi. Player 1 and Player 2 take
turns in clearing
the action screen panels. When only Controller 1 is connected
to the Super
NES, both players can take turns using the Controller.
If both controllers
are connected to the Super NES, then one of the players
can control Mario,
and the other player can control Luigi.
If one player fails to clear a course, it is the other
player's turn. When a
player enters the course in which the other player has
reached the Midway
Gate, that player also starts the course from a point
near the Midway Gate.
(See "Midway Gate" on page 8)
TRANSFERRING EXTRA PLAYERS
If you press the L or R Button at the map screen, the
screen on the right
will appear. This screen also appears if one of the players
finishes the
game. When this appears, you can give some of your Marios
(or Luigis) to the
other player.
When you're only using one controller, press the B Button
to give one of
Luigi's lives to Mario; press the A Button to give one
of Mario's lives to
Luigi.
When you're using two controllers, player 2 (with Controller
2) can press the
B Button to give one of Luigi's lives to Mario and the
Y Button to give one
of mario's lives to Luigi. Press the START Button to
return to the original
screen.

______________________________________________________________________________
SAVING YOUR PROGRESS
When you clear areas like a castle, fortress or haunted
house, the following
choices will appear on the map screen:
* Continue
and Save
* Continue
Without Save
If you choose to continue and save, the route up to that
point will be saved
in the Save Slot you selected at the Title Screen. Once
your selection has
been saved, it doesn't matter if you switch the POWER
switch OFF, because it
is saved on the Game Pak. If you want to end the game
in the same status as
you started, select CONTINUE WITHOUT SAVE and the continue
the game. (Your
extra Marios will not be saved.)
When the game is over, the following choices will appear on the map screen:
* Continue
* End
if you select "End", you'll return to the Title Screen.
If you select
"Continue," you'll begin on the course immediately after
the last saved
point.
When all three save slots have been used, you can delete
the data in one of
the slots by selecting "Delete Saved Route" at the Title
Screen. And after
selecting and and restarting a save slot, you can choose
to play the game
as a 1-player game or a 2-player game. (The number displayed
in the save slot
is the number of areas you've found up to the point when
you saved.)
This game pak has a battery backup function to record
the progress of the
game. WARNING: If the POWER switch is switched ON and
OFF repeatedly, the
accumulated contents may be deleted. Also, avoid turning
off the POWER
switch unnecessarily (before saving the game) or data
may be lost.

If you press the Y Button, Yoshi's tongue will dart out
to eat berries and
enemies. (Match the position of the berry with Yoshi's
mouth, and he will
automatically eat it.)
Spitting
[Y]
It's difficult for Yoshi to eat hard objects such as turtle
shells. So when
Yoshi has a hard item like a shell in his mouth, press
the Y Button and he'll
spit it out. If he eats red shells, he'll spit out a
bunch of fireballs,
which can be really handy against a group of foes!
If Yoshi eats a yellow shell, he will make a sand cloud
when he bounces off
the ground. If an enemy is hit by this sand cloud, it
will be defeated. Yoshi
can also spit the shell out at his enemies.
When Yoshi eats blue shells, he can fly if the B Button is pressed.
Flying in The Air
[B]
Press the B Button repeatedly.

______________________________________________________________________________
* If shells are left in Yoshi's mouth for a long time,
Yoshi will swallow
them after awhile. If this happens, Yoshi can
no longer do the amazing
things he can when he holds them in his mouth.
* If an enemy hits Yoshi when Mario is on Yoshi's back,
you won't lose Mario
or any strength; however, Yoshi will run away.
If this happens, you'd
better chase him will all your might, because
if Yoshi falls off a cliff or
into a hole, he'll be gone for sure.
The Legend Of The Colored Yoshis
Somewhere in the land of dragons, there are three different-colored
Yoshis
hiding. At first, they are little kids. So, you must
feed them something
so they grow. If you feed them five enemies, they'll
grow into a big Yoshi.
The little Yoshi's specialities are different than big Yoshi's specialities.
Red Yoshi
Red Yoshi always spits out fire balls, whatever the color
of the shells in
his mouth.
Blue Yoshi
Blue Yoshi can fly for a fixed length of time, whatever
the color of the
shells in his mouth.
Yellow Yoshi
Yellow Yoshi throws out sand clouds for a fixed length
of time when he jumps,
whatever the color of the shells in his mouth.

______________________________________________________________________________
YOSHI'S ISLAND
Fortress
There are dinosaurs called Renzor waiting in all four
fortresses. No doubt
they have been put under a terrible spell by Koopa. They'll
do anything for
him, so watch out!
Haunted House
The inside of this old wooden house is dark, scary, and
swarming with ghosts
and spirits. What's more, the door is nearly impossible
to find. So you're
going to need to put on your thinking caps to escape
from here.
Yoshi's House
This is the starting point for the game but the house
is empty. It looks like
the elusive Yoshi has gone out. You better look for him
and look quickly! By
the way, Yoshi was first discovered on Yoshi's Island,
that's how he got his
name.
The Castles
Within seven castles, the Koopa Kids each hold one of
Yoshi's friends captive
inside an egg. There are lots of traps waiting for you
when you try to get
through the kids' rooms. What's more, the kids will come
at you with a
variety of attacks. Exploring these fortresses is enough
to drive you crazy!

______________________________________________________________________________
Mysterious Sunken Ship
This is a strange looking sunken ship. Haven't you seen
it somewhere else
before? That's right, in Super Mario Bros. 3, Koopa and
his kids used a
flying ship to make life tough for Mario. I wouldn't
be surprised if Bowser
is lurking somewhere nearby.
20
______________________________________________________________________________
KEYHOLES
Secret Keyholes were also mentioned on page 8.
From the Donut Plains onwards, many course points are
red. All these course
points are hidden different goals and keyholes as shown
here. Keys USUALLY
lay next to the keyhole. If Mario takes a key and moves
over the keyhole, he
can exit the course to another area. If Mario is on Yoshi
when he finds the
key, they can move over the keyhole with Yoshi holding
the key in his mouth.
STAR ROAD
WOW! What's this place?
Find this star on the map screen and you know you've
come to a strange
place! But don't worry, if you can solve this puzzle,
something good is
bound to happen.
Switch Palace
Jump on the big switch here and the yellow blocks with
dotted lines in the
middle of the course will change to exclamation blocks.
This makes it easier
to clear the course. The switch palaces come in three
other colors; you will
definately want to find these.

______________________________________________________________________________
CHARACTERS IN DINOSAUR LAND
Koopa
The same old Koopas are back again. Everything seems
bleak when these
characters appear! If you jump on a Koopa in this game,
it pops out of its
shell. And what's worse is that an unshelled Koopa will
eventually find its
empty shell and climb back in to start all over again.
BEWARE! If a Koopa
climbs into a yellow shell, he'll become invinsible!
Super Koopa
A Koopa can fly once it has put on this magic cape. It
looks like this guy
might give Caped Mario some tough aerial combat. But
look at the bright
side... if you jump on one that's wearing a flashing
cape, you'll get a Cape
Feather.
Jumpin' Poranha Plant
These are a tropical plant version of the Volcano Plant!
Be careful; they
come madly whirling out of the pipes and can be
very tough.
Goomba
Jump on it to make it roll. You can also hold it or throw
it.
Monty Mole
This is a mole that bursts out of the ground. There's
even bigger ones
underground.
23
______________________________________________________________________________
Boo Buddies
The Big Boo
You may remeber the Boo Buddies from Super Mario Bros.
3. This time there is
a whole horde of them! And amongst them there's a huge
spook named The Big
Boo. But, don't worry, if you look at them, they act
shy and turn away. Cute,
aren't they? But watch it ... they're dangerous!
Eeries
This is a dinosaur spook that roams the haunted house.
It comes after you
with its pale face and ohhhh, what a ghastly spook it
is!
Rip Van FIsh
This little fellow is always taking a nap, but when Mario
comes along, he
wakes up, and sets off in a hot pursuit. Whatever you
do, don't let Rip
touch mario.
Urchin
This is a giant urchin drifting in the sea. It doesn't
move very fast, so if
you swim by carefully, there should be no problem. However,
it's probably
really painful if you get stung.
Dolphin
Don't worry, these guys are not enemies; they help Mario
cross water. A
useful shoal of dolphin look alikes!
24
______________________________________________________________________________
Rex
As one would suspect, you could only meet this kind of
enemy in Dinosaur
land, and there are lots of them too. You have to stomp
on Rex twice to
defeat him. Rex has wings, but I don't think he can fly.
Mini-Rhino
Dino-Rhino
These are dragons from Chocolate Island. Jump on Dino-Rhino
and it becomes
Mini-Rhino. Watch out, they breath fire.
Bob-omb
These explode and scatter stars after a set time. Some
of the Bob-ombs use
parachutes to drop from the sky. These little guys are
a real blast.
Thwomp
A nasty stone ghost that guards the castles and fortresses
for the Koopas. If
Mario comes close, Thwomp will try to crush him. The
trouble is, if you don't
you can't go on.
Wiggler
A caterpillar that lives in the forest. Normally, Wiggler
is very quiet, but
once jumped on, Wiggler turns red and gets extremely
angry. If possible,
treat Wiggler with respect.
25
______________________________________________________________________________
Magikoopas
This is one of the tortoise sorcerers. The starnge flashes
of light that
shoot from the wand are able to change blocks into enemies.
On top of this,
Magikoopas can appear and disappear in an instant. A
tough customer to deal
with!
Sumo Brother
When this strange little fellow stomps his foot, lightning
strikes, and turns
whatever it hits into a sea of flames. BEWARE! Sumo Brotherwill
even attack
you with a karate chop!
Chargin' Chuck
These All-Stars always seem to bar Mario's way just when
he's within sight
of the goal. They use a variety of bull-headed attacks,
so you'll really
have a tough time checking Chargin' Chuck.
