Blue Beach Koopa Troopas launch themselves off slopes to ostensibly demonstrate momentum physics. However, the physics are actually faked, and instead of using actual momentum, the Koopas are simply programmed to jump whenever they reach an upward slope. This only happens to Blue Koopas who spawn into the level without a shell, and those knocked out of their shells will operate as normal when approaching similar slope configurations. While these Koopas appear shell-less in a handful of courses, only Cookie Mountain and Groovy include ramps they can jump from.

In the western localization of the game, the Special World's levels are all named after 90's American surfer lingo, with the names being Gnarly, Tubular, Way Cool, Awesome, Groovy, Mondo, Outrageous, and Funky.

However in Japan the first two levels are named "Fun Course", third and fourth are named "Even the Mario Staff is Shocked Course", fifth and sixth are named "Specialists' Course", and seventh and eight are named "Championship Course". None of the shared names are even differentiated through numbers, like "Fun Course 1" or "Fun Course 2".

Attachment Among the files included in the Gigaleak, a massive 2020 content leak of internal data from Nintendo, is a tileset associated with Super Mario World depicting a Bullet Bill variant so big that it nearly occupies the entire screen. While the idea was scrapped in favor of the much smaller, but still large Banzai Bill, it would eventually be revisited in New Super Mario Bros. Wii with the King Bill enemy.

Attachment In the Super Mario World & Yoshi's Island Developer Interview with Nintendo, Takashi Tezuka stated that Mario was originally going to ride a horse instead of Yoshi. However, it felt out of place for a "reptile" world, and was changed to look both like a crocodile and a turtle. A similar concept was almost given to Mario in Super Mario 64, but was later given to Link in Ocarina of Time as Epona.
