Nintendo

nah actually more excited for mario RPG, if only for the amazing remade music

It isn’t on Switch online. Only emulation, snes classic, and now defunct virtual consoles had it.

It’s great that it got a proper remake, and it’s great that Nintendo made a new 2D Mario as well.

I'll probably skip Super Mario RPG, unless they pull a FF7.

I played the whole of the original, and it was fantastic.

That said, I think the target audience is folks that missed RPG the first time and want to experience it withv some rough edges sanded off. For that, I think it will be fantastic, again.

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.

I'm excited for both, but I'm more excited about Wonder as well. I love 2D Mario games, and I was able to enjoy NSMBWii and NSMBU just fine; however, finishing U made me not want another standard 2D Mario game unless they were going to innovate like Rayman did with Origins/Legends or even Donkey Kong did with Returns/Tropical Freeze.

The new trailer showed off so many features that are brand-new, and I can't wait to get my hands on it. I could be wrong, but it also felt a lot like the reveal of 3D World where the first trailer was fine, but the second was bonkers and made it go from looking good to amazing.

Why not both?

I'm excited for both! RPG will have the nostalgia factor and maybe some extra QOL stuff or content. Wonder is a totally new game which is exciting. It also looked weird which is a win in my book.

I've seen like 3 reaction YouTubers pretty much groan when they first saw the Mario Bros trailer. That's really stupid if that's the concensus, because it looks really creative and cool. If more Mario Bros games are like that I'm all for it.

I'm excited to see everything they do with the remake, mainly the music, but I'm also more excited for Wonder. It looks like a much needed breath of fresh air for 2D Mario.

I pretty much agree, maybe if they'd managed to somehow capture the weird feel of Mario RPG's prerendered sprites in real time it would have impressed me more? Not sure, but it definitely looked more generic than the original game in terms of graphical style. Plus I'm just not that excited to play it again for some reason, even though I loved the original.

However, Super Mario Wonder looked so creative, the surrealism drew me in and it seems like the perfect direction to take 2D Mario in. It's the one game in that Direct that I saw and was like "I need to play this".

I am very excited for both games, but the visual style of Super Mario Wonder looks stunning, I'm really glad they innovated with the visuals. We've been having the same plain looking 3d models for a while now and this is like a breath of fresh air.

I honestly don't care for remakes... I'm a fan of remasters when they're done right though. I think Super Mario Bros Wonder looks very creative in gameplay and animation. I think the game may also have weirded people out a bit, and that may be why no one is talking about it. I really hope it succeeds, I feel Nintendo has been lacking creativity recently (that's just my opinion though)

I've never played the original Mario RPG, so kinda excited to try it finally.

I just hope Super Mario Wonder doesn't feel too gimmicky, and that it has varied gameplay and mechanics.

I'm excited for both, but if I had to pick just one it would be Wonder since it's new.

It looks very old now. I think the game is still great, but those pre-rendered graphics…I’m happy for it. That said, I’m more excited for Wonder as it looks more fresh.

Mario is fat and small, it's cute & I like it. You can like both of them.

I'm excited for both cause I don't think any sane person thought RPG would ever come back and I haven't played it yet.

Daisy alone sells me on Wonder but seeing what looks to be the easy character (Yoshi) being playable for everyone is much better then limiting it to certain character, forcing one player to use them and looks to always have flutter which is much better then a exclusive item and invulnerability doesn't save struggling players from bottomless pits.

Agreed entirely. I remember RPG fondly! But this remake does not feel up to the same standard set by Link’s Awakening. Yes, because it used pre-rendered 3d pixels there was less distance between any remake and the original, but it still seems lackluster compared to Link’s Awakening.

Wonder, on the other hand, looks like an actual progression after SMB3 and SMW, rather than the party game / throw a bunch of coins at you focus of New SMB games.

Me! I love the sidescrolling Mario games.

SMBWonder looks like a fresh take on 2D mario. Very hyped!

Is it just me, or does Mario's voice sound a little different? Is Charles Martinet retiring?

I tend to prefer playing the originals over the remakes, especially on original hardware and a CRT. I'm definately more excited for the trippy quirky new 2d Mario, but I'd be lying if i said i wouldn't eventually pick up the Super Mario RPG HD remake. Just probably not at launch.

As I never played the original, I'm excited to play the remake.

Didn't have a SNES as a kid (had a Genesis), I don't pay for Nintendo's online service and don't have the SNES classic.

Since RPG wasn't released in Europe, I didn't get to play it until I've already played and loved Paper Mario, so to me it was always just a less interesting version of that. I'm happy to see the 'forbidden game' come out of its black hole in a big way, but my interest is minimal.

For me I am more hyped for SMRPG more because its kind of a known quantity. I love the game and may or may not even pick it up in this form for now, but I'm happy that it will probably be discussed online for a while again.

SMBW looks cool and I am pretty likely to buy and play it sometime, but I am not like super hyped for it and I think I will enjoy it more for not being overhyped on it.

I played a lot of SMRPG as a child and the remake looks so faithful and beautiful so I'm definitely more excited by that. But my wife did not, and she loves side scrolling Mario, so she's more excited for Wonder. Looks like we'll be getting both.

As someone who has never played Super Mario RPG, I am excited for it because I struggle to get into games with dated graphics - so the old version will be tough for me to get into. But similarly, Wonder seems super psychedelic and cool and such a new thing, so probably more excited for it.
