Anyone else more excited for Super Mario Bros Wonder then the Super Mario RPG remake? I didn’t really think it needed a remake. You can play it everywhere. Pretty sure it’s on Nintendo Online and then there is the SNES classic too. The graphical style in which high def models are turned into sprites are just so mid-90’s. Replacing those with just generic HD Mario models seem a little lackluster or boring.
I have played Mario RPG a few times in my life, including once within the past couple of years. The remake looks like a straight remaster with updated graphics, so I don’t really have any desire to play it again, especially if it means paying $60 or whatever it will cost. But I think this game isn’t really aimed at me. There are a lot of people who never played the original, including lots of young kids who weren’t around when it came out. I think that is the main audience for this remake. And for them, I think this will be an exciting release, because the game is still awesome.
