Super Mario RPG Nintendo Switch Review - Is It Worth It?

[@A_chocolate_bar_review_channel]

I hope this stirs the pot for a direct follow up sequel. Even the original director is down for it. This was also a refreshing game because instead of Bowser being the enemy he was now an ally helping to fight off a bigger foe.

[@MrKevin486]

A real sequel to Mario RPG would be absolutely insane. I'd be like a fever dream, I would have never thought it possible. Paper Mario's were mostly good, but lacked **something** compared to Mario RPG.

[@A_chocolate_bar_review_channel]

There is a unique charm to this game.@@MrKevin486

Square owns part of the game so Nintendo would need Square's permission, hence why the actual sequel got turned into Paper Mario.

[@rudeboyspodcast]

For people wondering whether a 30 year old game js worth $60 today: Yes. It's one of the best games ever made.

[@ShyRanger]

Eh... the price is still an iffy thing for me. I'm not holding it too much against the game because its not the devs who decide its price, but come on. If Metroid Prime Remastered can cost $40 and the two Pikmin ports can be $50, you have to admit they're being kinda greedy asking $60 for this game.

[@001phila]

not worth $60 trust me, completed the game and post game nothing special other than the graphics, boss cut scenes and triple attack

[@HarveyHirdHarmonics]

@@ShyRanger Metroid Prime is basically a port with updated graphics and a few other updates and the Pikmin games are just ports. Super Mario RPG on the other hand transfers all the 2D graphics into 3D. It's a completely new engine plus new cinematic cutscenes. While I agree that the price should be lower, because the effort of level, story, dialogue design and composing the music were already there, I think it is worth more than those other remasters/ports. The prices for all of those should be lower. But if it sells, who can blame Nintendo? I did buy Super Mario RPG and Metroid Prime Remastered. And others did and will too.

I gotta say. The gameplay has been improved on in some areas. But BUT why the hell they changed some of the most iconic dialogues beats me... glad this reviewer touched on this point.

[@MrKevin486]

Because younger kids wouldn't understand it. These are generational things. If you want a joke to land or things to stay relevant, you can't have pop culture references from before the majority of players who play games now days were even born. They won't get it and the whole joke will fail.

[@KaiserGX]

Most of the game's script is the same. They just took out/changed a few things and fixed up some of the enemy names.

Some of it is correcting mistranslations and inaccuracies from the original Japanese version. Others like the Bruce Lee line being changed is obviously for copyright reasons. The changes all make sense.

I grew up with this game and fell in love with it the second I first played it. I cried when I saw the announcement trailer for the remake. After playing the remake for a couple of hours today, my eyes teared up again. They did such an amazing job at remaking this game! This is how the game always lived in my memories! You can tell they put a lot of care into this remake. The little details matter, and you can see that they really thought of the little details. Even when you first enter Bowser's castle and open the door to the lava area, you can see the light from the lava reflecting off the door and walls before you enter the room! Such a small detail, but it really shows how much care was put toward this game!

[@laymankeepitbrief]

I didn’t enjoy the original Super Mario RPG back when I played it; more of a Paper Mario fan. That said, Nintendo made the right call remaking both RPGs to appeal to two different generations. It’s a good way to test the waters on what new things they should try with Mario.

[@saysoun752]

Well, they're done by 2 different companies as Square made Super Mario RPG and Intelligent System, owned by Nintendo, made Paper Mario.

[@jclkaytwo]

kind of funny how much video games evolved in the 8 years between mario rpg and ttyd. it's easy to forget, but ttyd is actually closer in release date to mario rpg than it is to dream team.

[@laymankeepitbrief]

@@saysoun752 Nintendo does not own Intelligent Systems. I believe Nintendo does have some stake in the company, but they are still separate. Intelligent Systems sometimes makes games for other publishers, including (ironically) Square Enix.

Curious if you can communicate what you didn’t enjoy about SMRPG vs. what you did about Paper Mario? Haven’t played either game and am still somewhat on the fence over these remakes but it seems most fans of one are easily fans of the other so I find it interesting you’re not into both

[@Bricks3374]

Funny enough I played both, but loved mario rpg and felt paper mario just wasn't for me. Being a rpg fan all I could see was all the things they took from rpg and put into paper mario. It was like a sequel to rpg but nothing like it due to the developers

I’d love for this to have the original game in it too. I know that may not happen but that would be amazing to have both together.

[@MLmaster135]

the most interesting part of this remake as some have observed is the switching mid-battle mechanic is pretty broken since when all 3 party members die you don't get a game over but the members that aren't mario get swapped in. you can also swap dead char to a still alive one, but it feels like you should have to revive them first before you can swap, considering its like FF10's swap, tot be better balanced. this is actually good and bad. bad because it means the main story might become a bit too easy since you'll likely never get a game over starting from the moment you get your 4th party member however there's a very valid reason why switching's so broken and it has to do with the post-game. the switching mechanics are specifically balanced for post-game, which's very neat

[@ShyRanger]

You could also say that depending on who gets switched in, it's not that broken. Like if Mario, Peach, and Geno die and all you have left is Bowser and Mallow switched in... you might as well be dead lol.
