Nintendo is remaking Super Mario RPG



Nintendo is reviving the very first Mario RPG. In a style very reminiscent of the original, Nintendo is giving Super Mario RPG a full remake, with a trailer that shows off beloved moments from the game with a fresh new look. Mario, Peach, Bowser, and yes, Geno, are back. The game launches on November 17, 2023.

I must be a real old boomer because I never see the appeal of these things. It looked fine on SNES to me and improved graphics and HD remakes never get me excited. The only time I even care is if they make a significant change to the art style like the remake of Star Ocean 2 or Live a Live. In those cases I am excited to play with the new art direction but most of the new HD remakes and especially remasters are kind of pointless to me.

This remake looks sick as hell, although I will agree with some of the posters above that I prefer the crunchier artstyle of the original. At least they didn't ruin the animations or anything, because generally speaking, overanimation is what can SERIOUSLY kill the look and feel of the original game when it comes to remakes like this.

Quick sidenote: The current box art on Amazon is the most marketing placeholder shit I have ever seen in my life, good god. Like, even Ultra Smash's placeholder art feels more inspiring than this, probably because it has like, an actual background and action pose. Come on, what's the point of even having a placeholder if it's gonna be THIS bland?

Not a great game, it's actually mediocre. We didnt get this in England so I'm not clouded by nostalgia.

Paper Mario 1 & 2? The first 3 Mario and Luigi games? So much better! They would make far better remakes and are far more solid RPGs. Even Mario and Luigi 2!

True story, it's all been fact checked several times order. I do appreciate if others disagree, though if they are wrong. Very wrong. So wrong that they're overloaded with wrongness byt I won't hold it against them, even though they are wrong.

Geno is a shit character. Admit it, this has been certified by genius scientists and scholars.
