## What it is
A ROM hack of Super Mario World for the SNES that expands the game's horizontal resolution to support widescreen aspect ratios like 16:9, 16:10, and 2:1. It requires the bsnes-hd emulator to run and is distributed as BPS/BSO patch files.

## Use cases
- play Super Mario World in widescreen on a modern monitor
- patch my SNES ROM for 16:9 aspect ratio
- extend SNES game resolution beyond 256x224
- play SMW without pixel stretching on ultrawide screens
- apply a BPS patch to Super Mario World
- run widescreen SNES games in bsnes-hd or RetroArch

## When to choose
- you want to play Super Mario World with widescreen support on modern displays
- you already own a legal SMW ROM and use bsnes-hd or RetroArch with the bsnes-hd beta core
- you want higher horizontal resolution (352x224 or 384x224) in a classic SNES game

## When to avoid
- you don't have a legally obtained Super Mario World ROM to patch
- you use emulators other than bsnes-hd, as the patch won't work elsewhere
- you want to play other SNES games in widescreen - this patch is specific to Super Mario World
