Summary

  • Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars is getting a complete overhaul and rebuild for the Nintendo Switch, offering a delightful rendition of a historic treasure with the same irreverently weird humor and novel gameplay.
  • The game introduced a slightly sarcastic edge to the Mario mythos, giving Mario a "voice" through mutely gesturing and transforming into other characters to communicate. It expresses Mario's earnestness, heroism, and exasperation at surrounding events.
  • The new remake of Super Mario RPG stays true to the original while adding finer visual details. The active combat system, timed button presses, and unique characters and species are among the highlights. The game also offers a new difficulty option, gameplay tweaks, and flashy cinematics.
