In this landmark Nintendo title, Mario and Luigi arrive in Dinosaur Land only to find Princess Peach kidnapped and the dinosaur inhabitants turned to stone by Bowser and his Koopalings. With the aid of the newly introduced Yoshi and a magical cape power-up, players navigate sprawling worlds, soar over landscapes, and dive into secret paths in one of the richest story-driven adventures of its era.
As the first Mario game built from the ground up for the SNES, this platformer leverages the console’s new hardware to deliver tighter controls, vibrant 16-bit visuals, and a memorable musical score by Koji Kondo.
