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

[–] uxl@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

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.

[–] DrBeerFace@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

This is one of my favorite games of all time that I am constantly going back and playing again.

So excited to see this.

[–] Glemek@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

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

[–] TheRoarer@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

I am certain these are the end times, because I was sure this was never going to happen.

Like... I'm worried there is a monkey paw out there that curled.

[–] FarmTaco@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

they still have the short stocky mario, this is amazing

[–] victory@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 1 year ago

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.

Geno my boy... I can't wait for the updated soundtrack

[–] Sentinian@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

Was not expecting this at all!

[–] Stweaner@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] TheRoarer@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

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

[–] BenignLarency@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Never played Mario RPG, but I'm down to try it! Should be cool!

[–] forevertothesky@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Soon you'll join the rest of us calling for Geno in Smash.

[–] Elden_Potato@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

oh shit, the best I was ever hoping for was a port to switch SNES. This is awesome!

[–] regular_human@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I never thought that they'd be able to negotiate a remake. This looks fantastic

[–] sigh@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

wow that looks great, looks modern but faithful to the original art style

[–] JWBananas@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

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

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!

Never heard of an Mario RPG before, on what platform was it, N64? (I never had, that's why I might not know about this game) The video confuses me, is everything there the new game or some scenes are out of the old game?

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

One of the last snes games iirc.

[–] superfiercelink@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

It is a full remake of the original Mario rpg that was on the SNES.

[–] StrangeWorrier@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] amtwon@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Probably easier to justify a sequel now that they've made a remake though 👀
