Knowing how to save your game in Super Mario Bros Wonder can save you from losing hours of your progress. Sure the game has the auto-save feature, but in an instance where your Switch runs out of battery or abruptly shuts down, it may not save the game properly.
Unlike the original Super Mario Bros for the NES, SMB Wonder is very lax like many other entries in the past so you don’t have to start all over when you run out of lives. The process of saving is also very easy. So here is how it works in this game.
How to Save the Game in SMB Wonder
You can easily the game from the main menu.
- Whenever you are on the level screen or done with a stage, press the “+” button on your Pro Controller or right Joy-con.
- Next, select the “Save” button. It should turn yellow when highlighted.
- Finally, press the A button to save your progress.
- Check the top right corner for the saving icon.
The above method lets you manually save the game. In case you ever forget to save it, then don’t worry SMB Wonder also has auto-save. But manually saving is better and far more reliable, as you don’t have to worry of losing any progress. Auto-save works when:
- You finish a level
- Leave a level unfinished
- Exit Shop
Can You Disable Auto-save?
No, there seems to be no option in the settings that lets you disable auto-save in this game. Although you don’t have to worry about doing poorly in levels for example missing out on wonder seeds. You can always replay the levels.
How to Load Game
Loading is very easy and you can do that by selecting your user profile when you start the game. Each user on your Switch gets their own save.
That is all on how you can save the game in Super Mario Bros Wonder and if you can disable auto-save.
