** [[Brutal Bonus Level|Tubular]] (level 2 of Star Road) is a notorious example. The entire stage is basically making it across a giant pit with the P-Balloon Power-Up, except you need to actually stop and hit certain blocks to find more balloons, or else you're not gonna make it in time. On top of that, thanks to this, you're basically a [[One-Hit-Point Wonder]], and you have to make it through fairly difficult attack patterns to hit said blocks.

** Awesome (level 4) is no slouch, either. A run across a slippery ice world with kicker Koopas sending shells at you every step of the way, followed by a platforming sequence over equally slippy narrow platforms with giant Bullet Bills, infinite flying fish, and finally a jump boost off a flying Koopa to another slippery platform to jump a decent distance to the exit pipe.

* [[Vindicated by History]]: While ''Super Mario World'' was always a big seller and well-loved, it was largely overshadowed by ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' around their release dates since the latter had a much larger marketing push by Sega of America that lobbed endless insults at the game. Nowadays, it's a contender for best game in the series and one of the best games of all time. The main reason why is that ''Super Mario World'' was the first ''Mario'' platformer to heavily incorporate alternate paths that lead to alternate levels, creating a great sense of nonlinearity and choice. It only took time to discover all of the secrets.
