A Super Mario RPG Blog
So I just replayed and refinished Super Mario RPG out of sheer boredom and election stress, and honestly? There’s A LOT of good from this game. Playing it again from beginning to end was an amazing pleasure and it was quite the nostalgic experience, too! Let’s go over some things:
1. One thing I absolutely LOVE from this game is the personality added to Mario, Peach, and Bowser. Aside from cartoons, comics, and such, the three never really had much going on with them in terms of character in the games until this one. And honestly speaking, I feel this game was the main seed of personality development for the three, as well as their usual group of friends, that was eventually re-implemented in future RPGs, spin-off/sport titles, and even some mainline games as well. From the start of the game to the ending, I enjoyed Mario’s charm, Peach’s independence, and Bowser’s stubbornness and all three of them made me laugh so hard throughout my playthrough.
2. Mallow and Geno are such gems in the Mario world. While it’s understandable they never made a reappearance after this game (sans SSBU and A LITTLE for Superstar Saga), what we got alone from this game was charming. Each of their arcs as well as their own personalities AUUGHH! Square Enix, please let me see these two play tennis and go go-karting someday!
3. They don’t lie when they say there are a thousand of secrets in this game. Even though I’ve already played it years ago, there were multiple instances where I had to rely on a guide to help me find certain things, whether it be hidden items or particular sidequests. Hoo! Things like beating Look the Other Way 100 times can really take a lot out of you! F*ck achieving 30 or 100 Super Jumps, though.
4. You just gotta love how unique the enemy designs are in this game, man.
5. The music, even to this day, is ON-POINT!! Whether it be everybody’s favorite Forest Maze, the cheerful Nimbus Land theme, or the ominous Bowser’s Keep track, every song in the game is a blessing to the ear.
6. Hey, so I really love Boshi, Croco, and Johnny for over 100 reasons. Is there something wrong with me? Probs.
Overall, I love this game. A lot. If you haven’t played it, PLEASE do yourself a favor, get out your Wii U, buy the damn game on the eShop, and play it to your heart’s content. It’s..... AUGH!! A flippin’ masterpiece! This game also has a lot of Shy Guys and I effin’ luv Shy Guys.
also get it while you can cause i kinda have doubts it’ll ever be on switch online play cuz square enix but hey gotta be positive
