I never played the original but I actually think the pixel version looks cooler

The remake is so beautiful. And it still has the same art style.

It’s so jarring seeing it all in HD

I never played the original, but I am really excited for this game.

I never thought the day would come. I always expected a sequel, but this honestly me equally captivated 😁

I think Mario looks a tiny bit too squished or short in the HD.
godlywhistler
I was worried how a 3D remake would look but they did a surprisingly good job. Running animation looks a little weird to me but overall they captured the look of the original very well
Jecht315
I know they won’t, but I wish they’d release the original on the NSO. I want to play the game so bad

Hope they have an option to swap between SNES OST and reorchestrated OST.
Nothing against the new beautiful reorchestrations, but SNES audio is some of the best in gaming. People were way more creative in how they had to manipulate samples within a tracker.

After Star Ocean and this…
By the way now we have the game that Nintendo Square relationship is close, how about a HD2D remake for the Bahumut Lagoon, the game that remarkable for their break up.
This deserved a sequel

The original had a more gritty look, they went with a much more colorful approach at remaking it, also Mario moves smoothier in the remake while he instantly snaps into any direction in the OG (They probably added analogue movement).
The remake looks far better for today’s displays but there’s certain charm in the pre-rendered graphics, they used to look much better in a CRT because it removed pretty much all the jaggies. I still own a CRT to play retro games, this game and the DKC Trilogy still look beautiful on it.

They removed Yoshi from the box art!

Anyone know/have an idea how the percentage meter on the left will work? Haven’t seem to found anything about it.
Super Mario RPG is my favorite game of all time so I hope it stays faithful to the original. Would hate to see mechanics that make the gameplay trivial as seen in some remakes of this time.

This game looks really good and I’m so excited for it. But I’m with others here who are saying it’s lost some of its charm with the new crisp, clean art style.
Logaline
Never played the game, beyond excited to play through it on the Switch

After 27 year i can finally replay the game.

So if you press b at the right time you do 9999 damage to smitty

MY BODY IS READY. Just like it was when I first played this way back in the 90s. SO perhaps my body is ready, but with a bit of extra creaking and complaining. Cannot wait.
Bomberman64wasdecent
I played it not too long ago on Wii (so maybe 10 years ago) and the game felt very short. Hopefully they will add some replay value to this one. Link’s Awakening remake, while fun, only got one play thru from me and didn’t seem worth $60
Gogo726
So much for abusing rewind so I can finally get the Super Suit

I absolutely loved this game as a kid. I can’t wait for this.
AliceDefMetalGod
I have a massive emotional attachment to this game so I’m going to complain a little lol. Mario RPG had a little more…grit to it than other Mario games. Even at the time of release. It paired well with the somewhat darker tones of the stories and such. Sunken ship feels like it’s gonna be sorely missed.
All in all I’m excited, but would have been much more pumped for a NSO release or something a little more faithful to the original style.
That being said, I’m super excited that a new generation is going to experience what is a Top 3 Mario release of all time.
currycatcat
Can’t wait for it!
Hope them would keep hidden boss Culex and increase more content!

The music…oh my luma the music. They kept the charm 🥹

Nintendo has ONE MORE JOB since they got the rights and made this game…
I hope we get the SNES version for switch online soon.

The snes vs of this game looks pretty good no?
MessyBudd83
I used play this when I was like 12 like a crack head. Probably one of the best fighting systems ever. Great move, Square amd Nintendo. Sheesh. Definitely getting the remastered.
iConfessor
I’m literally crying.
The_Odradek_Champion
This is wonderful. Can’t wait.
Now remake the original Paper Mario.
Vilxen0
I played the SNES version about a year or two ago and never expected id get lucky enough to experience a remake in my life time…
IM SO HYPED FOR IT TO RELEASE AAAA
Goseki1
Man i was just thinking about emulating the original on my Deck. What a perfect announcement, and probably great final game to buy for my Switch
chl_ca
the gameplay in the overworld looks so similar that it kinda worries me

They absolutely nailed the artistic direction of the remake.
Day one

Who’s ready to perfectly hop on rotating blocks until you manage to reach the other side?
dorasucks
I just hope there’s a ng + or something. The original is my favorite game of all time. Got it on release in 2nd grade. But it’s a bit short and pretty simple.
rlinkmanl
Why did they do the comparison in opposite corners instead of side by side? So dumb…
That being said, I cannot wait for this game. I loved Super Mario RPG.
xC0ma
Geno for smash confirmed.

I already demand a proper sequel

I still have my SNES copy!
Can’t wait for this one!

Some pretty major spoilers in your comparison video though. XD

The music in this game is amazing. I’ve been waiting for this for decades.

I adore love this art style. It’s so respectful of the original art style while still looking fantastic and modern.

Looks just a great as the Link’s Awakening remake.

I’m looking forward to this, loved the original and will enjoy this one as well I’m sure.

Honestly I prefer the look of the snes version more personally

They need to make decent sized plushies of [Heavy Troopa](https://i.imgur.com/rZPUtX3.jpg), and [Big Yoshi](https://i.imgur.com/Lb91OeS.jpg), and I’ll be fine.
I hope we get the SNES version for switch online soon.
