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

Probably easier to justify a sequel now that they've made a remake though ๐Ÿ‘€

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 easily the most exciting announcement in the direct. Was not expecting it at all and now I'm extremely excited.
