#Super mario rpg sequel series#

Relative to its system, Mario RPG also has the best production values in terms of graphics and music, I'd say. Super Mario RPG has pretty much a traditional battle system. It also tends to have the best script out of the mario RPGs. Paper Mario has the whole paper-graphic style going for it, as well as the badge system. Well, they're all similar games, but they all have unique styles to them.ДЇor instance, the Mario & Luigi games have the bros powers and bros attacks, and they also have awesome characters and nostalgic references in the quest. So what do you think? I'm not saying 'skip making a Paper Mario' or anything like that, I'm just asking why isn't there a new one, since Nintendo and Square are getting so close now, I think it's time for a true SMRPG sequel. They could put it on the DS, and everyone would be happy. So we have now Square working on Mario Hoops 3 on 3, I just want to know if Nintendo is cooking up a blockbuster with Square again that would make everyone who've clamored for a SMRPG sequel's dreams come true. Some of the cool moments of the game that I remember: Fighting Culex, the MINI-GAMES, and the cool new characters (Geno rox). The reason I ask this question is because I loved SMRPG's style, storytelling, and addictive gameplay (which was copied by PM and ML, the 'extra hit' button thing at least). But NOTHING will fill the void that Super Mario RPG has left. I know that Paper Mario/Mario & Luigi are supposed to fill this void. I know that Square went half and half with Nintendo on this game. Super Mario RPG was one of our top 25 games that deserve a sequelВ and was also ranked #29 in our top 125 Nintendo games of all time.Before all the haters/correctors/others swoop in on this thread, backstory: Might we eventually see FujiokaвЂ™s Super Mario RPG 2? That remains to be seen, but if the game does make it into production, perhaps weвЂ™ll see Fujioka work in some of these more fantastical elements. So, we figured having Mario use jump attacks made more sense. вЂњBut we realized that it doesnвЂ™t make sense for a character like Mario to be using weapons like that. вЂњInitially I was thinking of having Mario use magic attacks and use a sword as well,вЂќ said Fujioka. In fact, he was originally going to ride a horse. Super Mario RPG was released in 1996 and saw NintendoвЂ™s iconic plumber step away from the side-scrolling platform action we had come to expect.Д«ut while Super Mario RPG added a Mario twist to some classic RPG elements, the original plan was to use more traditional RPG weapons and systems.

But initially, we wanted the game to look a lot like the earlier Final Fantasy games.вЂќ вЂњThe final product, of course, you were looking at it from a specific angle. вЂњSuper Mario RPG was supposed to be similar to the Final Fantasy games вЂ“ you were supposed to be looking at the world from above,вЂќ he explained. It seems that the original concept was a lot more like early Final Fantasy games.

Asked whether he has any story ideas, he replied: вЂњThat is a secret.вЂќДЇujioka is perhaps best known for Super Mario RPG on the SNES but he also joined AlphaDream, working on the Mario & Luigi series starting with its first installment, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga.
