    I’m just happy I see this kind of news here in the fediverse and don’t have to rely on reddit

      Agreed, really love how much more engagement I’m seeing here. What’s cool is how this feels like the first days of Reddit way back in the day. No bots, etc.

    This was the one on the list that I am probably most initially hyped for, I loved this game as a kid!

    Super Mario RPG has my favorite music in the series, so I’m excited to hear it all remastered

      Yoko Shimomura, the original composer, is back to work on it!

    My immediate response was “No fucking way!”, followed by “How much?” and “$60?? Dammit, I’m probably going to pay that.”

    They actually did it, the absolute madmen. As a kid I rented this over and over from Blockbuster but never finished it. Maybe now I finally will.

    Don’t forget:

    • Real Yaridovich doesn’t use Meteor Attack or Static E or Bolt

    • Go Left, Left, Straight, Right

    • SO LA MI RE DO RE DO RE

    • P-E-A-R-L-S

    • Rewards for Cricket Jam and for lost wallets are better with age

      Same here! I don’t know how many hours I spent unlocking every last secret in that game and there were so, so many.

      Its really good. Turn based but has a timing thing for attacking and some decently hard fights. Fun story, cool characters, im very surprised tossed it getting remastered.

    I wish it was a sequel instead of a remake but remakes are much easier for a business to justify.

        It would be an easy low budget seller for them, this might be to check interest since it is a known property.

      Interestingly Paper Mario 64 was apparently originally a sequel to SMRPG, there’s some super early dev footage that got shown off at an expo that used the name “Super Mario RPG 2” for what was eventually reworked into the first Paper Mario

    This is amazing. I never thought they’d remaster this game. I only knew about this game recently. Heard it was a cult classic that sat outside the mainstream despite being Mario in the 90s.
    The original was also made during the peak era of Squaresoft at the time too so just that extra bit of lightning in a bottle this game sounded like.

    I’ve played a bit of it on a miyoo mini recently and really dug it. Super happy to see this piece of news!
