This looks really good! Super Mario RPG was the last game I expected to see be remade!

[–] king_dead@beehaw.org 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

[–] myersguy@lemmy.simpl.website 1 points 2 years ago

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

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

[–] ScrumblesPAbernathy@readit.buzz 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years 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)

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!

[–] jax819@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago

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

[–] knova@links.dartboard.social 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I’m actually shocked this is happening

[–] computerfan0@beehaw.org 2 points 2 years ago

I am too! Given that this game hardly ever gets mentioned, I never even thought that a remake could happen!

[–] Rayzer@lm.byteme.social 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Was not expecting this. It's a welcome surprise for sure. 😊

[–] dodgypast@vlemmy.net 1 points 2 years ago

That's how I'm feeling. Think both my son and I will enjoy it a lot.

Why is everyone getting downvoted in the comments?

[–] StewieTheThird@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

On here? not possible, the beehaw community this is hosted on has downvotes disabled. Unless you mean on yt which all i can say to that is "its youtube".

[–] notfromhere@lemmy.one 1 points 2 years ago

Turns out it was a UI bug in the Memmy app. Everything is working now

[–] kiddblur@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Are you sure? I'm here from lemm.ee and I can downvote comments in this post and it shows their points decrease when I do it

A classic game you can beat over a weekend. I love that it stays true to the squishy, goofy original art. Man that boss theme is so nostalgic, the whole OST is a bop.

[–] GhostMagician@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Can it really be beaten over a weekend? I might give the original a shot before getting into the remake.

[–] meteokr@community.adiquaints.moe 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I've played it a few times casually, but last full playthrough I did I think my play time was 20 hours or so. So maybe a long weekend, but yeah its a short game. It doesn't waste your time and keeps things fresh and moving pretty quick. No grinding, no resource time gating, a straight no frills experience. Just run around and fight monsters for levels. If you've never played it before, really take in the OST, it is 10/10. Especially if you're a fan of the music from that console era.

The story is cute, and has some good jokes. Its just a solid game, and great to chill to. Unless you go out of your way for secret bosses, the main story is fairly easy as well.

I do love SNES music. Particularly Chrono Trigger. I've been playing more retro games since I got the steam deck.
