A while back I set up a poor man's arcade with RetroAchievements for the family. My kid is currently interested in speed running SMB, so we fired it up for the evening. The achievements were a fun addition. I played this game a lot back in the 80s, but I haven't played it recently and I was impressed by my memory was for little details. I accidentally grabbed the second level warp in 4-2, thinking the vine led to a cloud level, and my Mario World tour ended shortly after that at 8-2, where I died repeatedly. I don't remember if I ever actually beat this one (probably not) but I may explore it a bit more. Truly wonderful level design.
