It also led to an animated television series of the same name. It sold more than twenty million copies worldwide, making it the best-selling SNES game. Super Mario World is often considered one of the best games in the series and has been cited as one of the greatest video games ever made. Yoshi was conceptualised during the development of the NES games but was not used until Super Mario World due to hardware limitations. The development team had more freedom compared to the series installments for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). It is the first Mario game for the SNES and was designed to make the most of the console's technical features. Nintendo Entertainment Analysis & Development developed the game, led by director Takashi Tezuka and producer and series creator Shigeru Miyamoto. Super Mario World introduced Yoshi, a dinosaur who can eat enemies, as well as gain abilities by eating the shells of Koopa Troopas.

The gameplay is similar to that of earlier Super Mario games: players control Mario or his brother Luigi through a series of levels in which the goal is to reach the goalpost at the end. The story follows Mario's quest to save Princess Toadstool and Dinosaur Land from the series' antagonist Bowser and his minions, the Koopalings. Super Mario World is a 1990 platform game developed by Nintendo for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES).
