Never got into that one much. Tried playing it a few times, but ultimately found it annoying and not too entertaining. Perhaps I didn't give it enough of a chance. I had high hopes for it since it was subtitled Super Mario World 2 and all, but I felt it didn't live up to SMW (which was a near perfect Mario game in my opinion. Absolutely fantastic. Especially if you played it from the context of upgrading from an NES with the wonderful SMB3 to a SNES when it first came out). The one thing about SMW that has always bothered me from day one is that the gumbas don't quite look right. They look more like balls with feet than walking mushrooms.
