    It might shock some people, and probably be missed out in the wake of the 25th anniversary of Super Mario Bros., but November 21, 2010 marks the 20th anniversary of the release of the Super Famicom, along with its flagship title, Super Mario World. This game served as the main selling point for the system when it was released, and is still regarded as one of the greatest SNES games. I have written an article about this wonderful game, including a close look at the extensive list of Super Mario World hacks.

    I have to admit, I am a bit surprised that the 20th anniversary of the Super Famicom is not a bigger deal than it is. Not being in Japan, is there any note of this?

    Heh! We didn't even have Super Mario 3 on this side of the ocean!

    Awesome to remember the date. Looking at the article as we speak.

    Are you my long lost twin or something? My experience is perfectly analogous to this. Same age, exact same date, brothers involved, I wonder how many others of us are out there. Super Nintendo Brothers.
