The Japanese names for the recurring Lost Woods location in the Legend of Zelda series and the Forest of Illusion from Super Mario World are the same: 迷いの森 (Mayoi no Mori).

In the North American and European versions of Super Mario World, Yoshi cannot eat the Dolphins. However, in the Japanese version and in all versions of the remake, Super Mario Advance 2, Yoshi can eat them.
In Super Mario World, it is possible to activate the “hurry up” jingle and subsequent speed increase in the background music repeatedly. In Funky, the last level of the Special World, there are 9 green Berries positioned around the level. If you wait until the timer reaches 99 seconds, then eat a Berry, the music will become faster, but the timer will go back to 119 seconds. Once it reaches 99 seconds again, this can be repeated with another Berry. Near the end of the stage, the music will sound like this.

By disabling the layer that contains the box surrounding the map screen in Super Mario World, we can see how the smaller sub-maps, like the Forest of Illusion, are actually part of a larger, connected map that is shown one screen at a time.
