Nintendo has passed along a bunch of screenshots from Super Mario RPG, and the official boxart.
The 1996 SNES classic returns on Nintendo Switch. There's lots of new aesthetics and features, but still lots of nostalgia as well. Is the weirdly funny and seemingly off-brand game worth its money in 2023?
As Super Mario RPG finds new life on Switch, we take a look back at the standout RPG it inspired.
Super Mario RPG's upcoming remake needs to maintain the classic game as much as possible, but new content and extra bosses would make it even better.
A true sequel would be great bring back Square again use Mellow and Gino in a new story.
The only thing I might add in 1 more party member.
I always felt like "5" in the original was such a weird choice. All the UI had slots for 6 characters. c
On top of that, there are 3 canon Mario characters(Mario, Bowser, Peach), but 2 new ones in Mallow and Geno. I can't help but think there was supposed to be a third that was cut for time.(Croco or Johnny Jones perhaps)
ff5 had four members onscreen. not 5
4 did, yes. but it was the only mainline with five party members on the screen.
Wasn't what I said. I'm talking about overall amount of party members, not how many are on screen.
If you watched the announcement trailer for more than 10 seconds you'd realize its not 1:1.
How so? Visually, it's as 1:1 as you can humanly get. They literally recreated scenes part for part in full 3d.
As for gameplay, the changes we can see are so incredibly minor. Joystick movement as opposed to d-pad, some chain boosts added during battle, etc.
That’s about as bland as you can get for a box art… and such a contrast to the Super Mario Wonder one
Looks like placeholder boxart, if I'm being honest.
Why not a new game instead? And this at full price?
To all the people who do not like this box art look up the Super Famicom box art to the original Super Mario RPG, and you'll see why it looks like this... even Japanese Final Fantasy Box arts are just plain white. Sheesh its a remake too look like the original Box art people.
