Wasn't Yoshis Island the sequel to the original Super Mario World on the SNES?

Played yellow when I was younger, never got around to blue or red. Added to the list :)

Never knew about this! My copy must be a 1.0 or a 1.1, I was able to explore the memory/ROM :)

Maybe 5 or 6 hours total? One hour was just trying to beat thee Wario level over and over.

Yep I have a flashcart. I'll def give it a look before I start Red version!

Funny you say that, I took a break from Link's Awakening to play Super Mario Land 2. Trying my hardest not to use a walkthrough but some of the late game dungeons are pretty tough compared to LTTP.
