Why would they have 9 worlds and not just go for the final 10? The first 8 including the 9th one (Warp Zone) which is an official world. I used to think there was a 10th world in there somehow...

The tenth world is the... um... The world of imagination that the game brings to your life. Yeah, that's the ticket.

Right. You gotta admit, that game was long enough as it was. Probably couldn't have fit another world in there.

Heh, what would it have been? Jungle Land? Hammer Bros. World? Candy Land? Bubble Land?

Fun to imagine, though.

Maybe they use a base nine system in Japan, and they only used the decimal equivalent when they brought it over here.

Gahh! I'm tired of saying this.... "morons!"

Take a look at SMB, there are 8 worlds. SMB3 has 8 worlds with levels (the Warp Zone is listed in the credits of areas simply because it exists, not because it has to be an 'official' world). This is pretty standard stuff people, Nintendo always gives approx 8 worlds (but using SMB3 with the Warp Zone as an example, that can be subjective). SMW has 7 regular worlds, plus Star Road plus Special Zone for a total of 9.

Just because it is standard-esque for Nintendo to put 8 worlds in Mario games does not mean that someone asking why SMB3 didn't have 10 makes them a moron...
