[The winner of this award was Super Mario World]

The Italian Stallion is back, and no, not Rocky! That's right, Mario has returned for his first ever entry onto a 16-bit console! This time, with enough "Star power" that he'll leave you saying "Macauley, who?” But the question is, will it be enough to dethrone Sega?

Mario's adventures now take him to the world of "Dino-land," which sounds right at home for the king of the Koopas himself, if you ask me! Bowser has once again kidnapped Princess Toadstool, and it falls on Mario and Luigi to rescue her by blazin' through 7 new worlds! But there's more to Dino-land than just what you'd expect! Hidden exits, a secret world, and even ghost houses! Woah, don't go buggin' out! You've got a lot of land to trek, and with your new trusty dinosaur companion, Yoshi, the running reptillian rampage will only get more fun!

Gone is the item inventory from Super Mario Brothers 3, unfortunately, but now you can store a power-up to use any time you want in the levels themselves. (Show clip of Mario needing to use a feather to cross a pit) Woah there, Mario! Mind the gap! With new moves, items, and enemies, Mario's first foray from the Mushroom Kingdom is no walk in the park - there are 96 levels to conquer! It might take you until 1996 to beat it!

Super Nintendo might still have a ways to go before it catches up to Sega, but it just goes to show that Nintendo isn't quite out of the game just yet! And that's why we think Super Mario World is the Best Game of 1991.
