Best Mario Game Ever

THis is the best Mario game ever in my opinion. Everything about it is awesome. Getting to use Yoshi, being able to fly using the cape, finding secret levels, and playing through star world to create alternate looks for enemies in the game (I wont give away what they look like). I have played this game since I was seven years old and I still never get sick of it. The music is great and the animation is the best of any Mario game made until this one was.

The only complaint is that Luigi looks more like Mario wearing green rather than Luigi. Whatever.

So by all means play this game. It is one of the best games ever made and easily one of the two best ever made for SNES, the other being Donkey Kong.
