How come did they sell you Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World again but separated in 4 parts?

Maybe because a GBA cart doesn't have that much space without increasing it's price by a lot?

I thought the same thing when Mario Advance was just Mario 2. SNES on the go was cool but couldn't it have been a new game? Then they released 3 more.

GBA carts had much more space than SNES carts. You could easily fit all four mario advance games on one cart.

by adding extra levels and voice samples (but reducing screen size).

Plus it made for some dumb titles. Mario Bros. 4: Mario Bros 3.

How much space would all 4 games + voice samples take from a gba cartridge?

Anyway I think the stretching and rotation effects in addition to the novelty of being portable would be enough bonus for a "gba mario compilation" so there was no reason to separate them in 4 carts. Also the new levels were e-reader exclusive.

Because they could.
