I hope so, its the best SMB game <3 especially that over world layout

Agreed. I always thought it was the best, even when people tried to argue SMW. But recently, I bought a SNES and a copy of SMW to revist the game and I could NOT beleive how easy it was. And when I say easy, I mean...eSAY. It's probably the shortest 2D Mario after the original. Great game, but way too short/easy. 

SMB3 ftw.

Tell me where to find the Soda Lake without looking it up.

What does that have to do with beating the game? I'm talking about picking it up, without cheats, and beating Bowser. It's the shortest Mario game after the original..easily. Good game, but WAY too easy and short. 

I think allowing people to go back into worlds they beat was a mistake. It made spamming for extra lives possible. You couldn't do this in SMB3. Without the flutes or cheats, you had to EARN your lives. Lose them, and you're done. No saves. 

SMW felt like it was more of an experiment with difficulty/time etc.
