Although Paper Mario has taken more of the spotlight over the years, a reappearance of Super Mario RPG is likely to bring more to the table.
Nintendo has used March 10 (aka MAR10 Day) to make a number of Mario related announcements, including an update on Super Mario Bros Movie 2.
Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and Luigi's Mansion 2 HD for Nintendo Switch have been dated for release during Mar10 day celebrations.
VGChartz's Stephen LaGioia: "Being a polished remake of an already delightful experience, Super Mario RPG is a can’t-miss offering for veterans and newcomers alike. RPG newbies should appreciate the smoothing of its rougher edges, while returning players will no doubt like the added battle features which add some depth. The remake impresses most in terms of a spruced-up presentation and (relatively) more involved combat dynamics, but still adheres closely to traits that made the original so appealing.
Some refinements and QoL improvements give the game a sensibility more bound to the current decade, but the pacing and linearity can still feel very ‘90s in some ways — for better and worse. While feeling more “evolutionary” instead of “revolutionary” overall, this enriching Mario journey is still as memorable as ever, and makes a terrific swan song for the Switch."
I never played Super Mario RPG so this will be a treat for me. The remake looks amazing!
Paper mario is terrible now lol. Really only the first and thousand year door were great. They should've stayed as rpgs. Man I can't wait for this remake and hope it does well enough for Nintendo to finally make a new mario rpg.
I enjoyed the newest Paper Mario but it's definitely not any kind of RPG anymore. Looking forward this!
