This is probably what made me fall in love with gaming. It was seeing this world map of Super Mario World. I wish more games had game maps like this.

Thanks!!! your video was very helpful. I was cleaning the controllers of my old SNES, then I was checking my record in Mario World and I was at 92, so I came to the web to find out if that was the 100%, turns out I was missing 3 normal exits of the Star World and the secret exit in the Forest Ghost House (tricky ones since you can walk the map in all directions without noticing missing exits). It took me about 45 minutes to find the missing ones, it was very funny and great to have the game finally completed watching the star along the 96 after 26 years. :)
BTW I found incredible that the batteries in my Mario World, Mario Kart, and Doneky Kong cartridges are still working after all this years.

Tysm!! I was stuck at 94 for a quite while and finally 100% on my switch. 👍🏽

[Kamoto]

Thank you! I didn't realize that you needed to complete star world levels twice. Now I have the 96 exits!

[SirChadofWick]

The forest of illusion 1 secret that you pointed out as easily missed was the last one I needed. Thanks!

[chad]

I was missing star world level 1, thanks best guide I’ve seen in a long time

[DetectiveSkimble]

You are a god, thank you for all the work you put in! You're saving me from tearing out my hair haha!

[SirLeonardo]

All the exits he covered were the ones i already completed, thanks for the map thing btw, its helpful

[missjack]

Awesome video, great walk through!! Thank you for sharing.

[busybella]

This was so helpful!! Tysm!! Personally it’s an indescribable joy to finally have that star by the 96. The only thing I was missing was apparently Soda Lake. Thanks.

[acanadianwoodworker]

This was insanely helpful and very well thought out - thanks!

[barryredfield]

I was going nuts trying to find the very last exit. I've owned the game since it launched with the Super NES and I have never found out where I was missing the last exit. Would you believe that it was the Forest of Illusion 1 Secret Exit? I just needed the stupid P balloon to reach the key and keyhole. After more than 3 decades, I've finally found them all. Thank you so much!!!

[WigWoo]

I have completed every exit in this video and I'm still only at 91... I even followed you on my own world map and I have every single path open

[EggyDaEgg]

Thank you sooo much man! I was stuck at 95 for a few days and I was so confused the exit I missed was forest ghost house secret exit (even tho I remember getting that one first)

[gpopospopo]

thanks! the video was very helpful. forrest ghost house secret exit which i thought was useless
When I found ', the star wrote 96 on the title screen!

[andreanease]

Growing up I know we had over 100, I remember 127 saved. My older brother doesn’t remember them all now though. We also had a second vine from the top bridge to the lower bridge and I can’t figure that out and no one has it. We all remember it, so it’s not made up in my mind.

[SB-glgt]

After super stars levels how make mario normal back?? (((( Please help

[EdgerRel]

Thank you. I was at 95 and it was the ghost house in the forest.

[Qwert]

Never knew the secret exit to Valley of Bowser 4, but now I do!

[BKDBrian]

I think the secret exit in Forest Ghost House is the one without the 3-Up Moon that takes you to Forest Of Illusion 4. The normal exit is the one with the 3-Up Moon that just takes you back to Forest Of Illusion 1.
