Hi,

i have noticed some savegame issues in Super Mario World and Donkey Kong Country (maybe other games)... for example... When i save after the two frist levels in Super Mario World (Yellow Blocks) i have 10xMario and fire flower powerup. When i reset the game the level progress is saved... but i only have 5xmario left an no powerup. Same in Donkey Kong... the lifes get los after restart... level progress is saved.

Is this a Bug? Or am i doing something wrong?

Thanks for the help

Everything is ok, in SMW you always save the progress never the amount of lives and items you have.
That is not a save state, your are saving the game as in the original hardware (SNES SaveRAMs).

Hi, unless I’m remembering this incorrectly both Super Mario World and the first Donkey Kong Country do not save your lives and/or items.

wow... ok... I was remembering it different... maybe because oft the GBA Version... so thanks for the refresh
