Super Mario RPG is releasing for Nintendo Switch on November 17, 2023! Looks like a full remake in 3d with an updated soundtrack. Though the original still ages well and looks great when played on modern emulation, I’m excited to see this as a full remake!

    It looks like the old game with a new paint job. Honestly, that’s probably all it really needs because there was almost nothing to complain about with the original. If Nintendo managed to get the greenlight from Square to repurpose Geno, I would almost wonder if Nintendo might be interested in taking a crack at what might have been before licensing issues with that character caused Nintendo to switch to the Paper Mario series.

      I sure hope so. Hopefully it sells well enough. With the death of Mario & Luigi I’m craving for a new Mario rpg.

      Yeah, the original was already very well polished. I could see the charm in a higher-def remake, though.

      FWIW it seems they’re also gonna modify the battle system a bit. Hopefully it turns out well.
