No way! This is still my favorite Mario RPG i cant believe they’re finally doing something with the series! They’ve always been so reluctant to even acknowledge its existence since it got released

I believe this all boiled down to issues with ownership (SquareEnix / Nintendo). Seems they’ve worked something out, though!

Yeah it was a big and welcome surprise here! Had a running joke that I wasn’t going to live to see anything Super Mario RPG in my lifetime, I guess I did live to see the day!

At last, and it looks so GOOD!! Can’t wait!!

I’m actually shocked this is happening
- Cylinsier ( @Cylinsier@beehaw.org ) 3•1 year ago
Somebody in a different thread said they would love a SMRPG remake and I almost replied “never gonna happen.” Well…holy shit.
- computerfan0 ( @computerfan0@beehaw.org ) 2•1 year ago
I am too! Given that this game hardly ever gets mentioned, I never even thought that a remake could happen!

One of my all time favorites! So glad to see this!

This looks awesome. I feel like it would be worth $40usd but I’m betting Nintendo will be asking $70usd. For 70, I’ll stick to the SNES.
edit: it’s $60usd
- kiddblur ( @kiddblur@lemm.ee ) 9•1 year ago
I read somewhere that Nintendo said that they’re not blanket raising their games to $70; that they evaluate on a title by title basis, which is why the new WarioWare is $50 (as is the pikmin collection)
- Zorque ( @Zorque@kbin.social ) 2•1 year ago
From another post, it looks like it’ll be $60.

The proportions are a little off to me but that may be the style.
Can’t believe they’re remaking it though!
- Ashen44 ( @Ashen44@lemmy.ca ) 7•1 year ago
Yeah, my first thought was “why does he look like that haha”
Definitely excited to play it though, looks like a fantastic game to occupy me during lunch breaks at work!

This looks really good! Super Mario RPG was the last game I expected to see be remade!
- lemillionsocks ( @lemillionsocks@beehaw.org ) 8•1 year ago
Wow I cant believe it finally happened. Mario RPGs fans have been vocally craving more since Paper Mario. A remake isnt technically more but it’s cool to see this game finally get official recognition again and bring in new fans who can fuel the flames of ADD GENOS TO SMASH discourse
- Awhiskeydrunker ( @Awhiskeydrunker@kbin.social ) 8•1 year ago
Probably my favorite and most played Mario game of all time. Now I see why they never released it on Virtual Console… this is even better. Can’t wait to play it with my daughters who love the Mario franchise!
- ACanadianGamer ( @ACanadianGamer@lemmy.ca ) 8•1 year ago
Cannot wait for this. I hope there is a physical version (mentioned only the eshop in Nintendo Direct) but looking forward to replaying one of my SNES favourites.
Okay hold up, this actually looks fantastic O.o

Was not expecting this. It’s a welcome surprise for sure. 😊
- dodgypast ( @dodgypast@vlemmy.net ) 1•1 year ago
That’s how I’m feeling. Think both my son and I will enjoy it a lot.
- Omegan ( @Omegan@beehaw.org ) 6•1 year ago
I’m happy that they’re polishing this game up for folks that may never have played it. There’s a chance I may buy it after I’ve caught up on other games but I’m just as happy knowing that this exists.

No more jiggle physics for Valentina, guess Nintendo vetoed that this time around.
