Most likely panties.
The Japanese version used XXX, which is their version of a placeholder but it had to be changed in the English translation for obvious reasons.
>XXX, which is their version of a placeholder
I wonder I remember Bahamut Lagoon having a bunch of Princess's XXX items which you could then feed to one of your dragons for a truly twisted transformation.
Alcohol due to moonshine jugs being XXX and Peach shown to get drunk in Super Mario Kart (JP). Panties because that was a common gag back then, panties in Japanese is a 3 character word and "XXX" could have been censoring that.
No, it's NOT a dildo or vibrator. This was back in the 90s, rarely any Japanese property would make a lewd joke based on that. No it was not lewd magazines since that was a gag specifically for male characters, never female ones.
this,i don't get why retards think is a vibrator or shit like that specially considering how peach reacts to mario finding said object,she is angry not embarrassed like she would be with the genetic "yaaaa pervert" anime shit
peach being a borderline dysfunctional alcoholic and having to hide it from mario is really funny >bowsers not trying to cuck mario he's trying to stage an intervention
I lean toward alcohol, because if you see that while Peach's attendant is in the room, she'll panic and exchange a mushroom for you to leave it where you found it. If it were panties, then they would need to be returned to the panty drawer. Not left in the secret stash spot by the fireplace. So it makes sense that she would hide booze where most people wouldn't look, and her attendant would makes sure the object stays hidden.
It's these little details that make me hate remakes where the developers think they know better and change things and again we're lucky that it's a Japanese studio that's taking care of this remake and not a Chinese studio or whatever.

Wow that looks so good. Reminds me of the one where someone spins really fast and the original had a unique animation and this shit ass remaster literally just made them Tpose and rotate really fast.
Based, honestly. I'm not sure how a peace sign signifies a children's character but I agree with him that Mario should be for all ages. I mean he's a fucking Italian plumber. It's amazing that he became so popular with kids.
>Miyamoto bans Mario from doing a V-for-victory sign because it's too childish. >Sakurai makes Pit flash a V-sign beaten and bruised at the end of the final boss of KIU because even if it's childish, he understands the character is a goofball at heart
Gotta appreciate Sakurai's autism for character integrity
It's simple, it's for kids, but it's a great game.
i personally think this remake is unnecesary because the snes original plays perfectly, but you know, zoomers need fancy "new" things.
What JRPGs are you playing? When I was 12 I had already beaten every FF, Secret of Mana, Evermoore, Gaia, Lufia 1 & 2, Chrono Trigger... the list could go on. stories are meant for children.
If you couldn't tell, Nintendo fans are very childish. Like this guy
Post your favorite "mature" rpgs made for "adults" so I can laugh.
. He's being extreme and implying there's only toddler shit and "mature" shit, no in-between, because he has the mind of a child and can't understand nuance. Like most Nintendo fans which is why they always call the things they do the best thing ever and better than everyone else.

I hope whatever follows up the Switch goes back to the fun menus. It was always neat bringing home a 3DS game and getting the unique game jingle as you popped in the cart and a little 3D diorama
not that it would matter, if u picked a stat repeatedly, it would give u less and less, and if u pick the 1 of the 3, that grants more stats, you'd end up with the same amount at the end (of that stat) the downside is, picking just one, would leave the others less, while not actually having more of the stat you want.
its a shitty illusion, for a game thats piss easy, and didnt need that kind of "balance".
>create brand new aesthetic piece for the level ups >characters dance together on stage >neon lights have flowers that represent the old game level up screen
Its effort and soul and you only hate it because its new.

Them dancing on stage doesn't fit with Super Mario RPG's aesthetic
The "LEVEL UP!!!" font looks like absolute low effort photoshopped-in shit instead of making it stylized like for example putting a Jumbotron-style LED sign.
The same goes for the other circular lights surrounding them. They look photoshopped in.
The character models are peak soulless because it's just the stock character models shrunk down because Mario has to always use his PERFECT design.

This has been a rampant thing in recent years. Devs don't give a shit about text anymore.
>Devs don't give a shit about text anymore.
You know, western devs have often been pretty shit about this.
But the japs used to be proud of their typography.
The UI has been modernized. Some things look like what you'd expect to see in a Nintendo Direct rather than in-game.
I don't normally give a shit about UIs, but I think they should have worked a bit to make the UI look integrated into the game's artwork rather than generic.
It makes me wonder if there isn't some standard the guys need to follow because this idea of making "sterilized" UIs seems to be the norm even when the idea is to make a faithful remake of an old game.
>I don't normally give a shit about UIs
I wouldn't either but the last two console gens have been fucking disastrous for UI design and the trend has only recently started to reverse from some devs
there definitely is a standard, when you start seeing basically the same HUD in every square enix game it's painfully obvious that they have internal committees or whatever that makes these up, it probably saves dev time but kills the soul
there are "people" who played SMRPG in English back when it was new
and they'll play the remake in English too
because 27.5 years is just not enough time to learn moon

Once an anon explained why there are so many autists obsessed with Geno, could someone explain it to me again? I've forgotten why, but it was kind of interesting to read...
Are they even going to try to balance the game bosses around the fact you have a super move gauge you can constantly filling up?
I saw a video of the Bowyer fight, and the buttons were all greyed out, meaning they weren't active yet, so it was just the first turn of the battle, and the super move was used and KILLS BOWYER IN ONE HIT.
Did they just not bother to make the bosses any harder, and just let you have a "kill the boss instantly" button you need to fill up to use? That sucks if true.
>I saw a video of the Bowyer fight, and the buttons were all greyed out, meaning they weren't active yet
No, they just removed the color from the buttons. One of them had an X on it. It wasn't the first turn.
What's likely happening here is a scripted sequence. ALL the buttons are greyed out, and this is the FIRST battle in the game where you can perform a triple move. Bowyer most certainly does not have 132 HP. So what likely happened here is they added a scripted sequence when you beat him where Bowyer shuts off all the buttons so you can't do anything, and so you're meant to use the triple move instead (because it uses the minus button).
To answer your question though, the bosses look more or less statistically identical. Random battles are going to be overall harder though, thanks to the special enemy mechanic.
I forgot to add that Bowyer will likely act as the full team gauge attack tutorial seeing as before you even get Geno you're stuck with a Toad summon move

Now this is really surprising. Nintendo who only a few years ago was pretty strongly against progression systems took an already strong progression system and has further cranked up the rewards structure. I'm happy about it, just surprised to see Nintendo acknowledging the inherent value of strong progression systems in a game.

It wasn't just Paper Mario. Up until the last few years Nintendo cut progression systems out of nearly every franchise, with the exceptions being Zelda and Japanese focused games like Fire Emblem and Xenoblade. Look at for example Mario 64 and Sunshine which both had progression systems, albeit minor ones. 64 had the different hats you could unlock to give you new abilities, and sunshine had Yoshi and the two FLUDD attachments in the hub world. Then Galaxy had absolutely nothing and 3D World and Odyssey followed along. Pikmin is another example, where Pikmin 2 had a lot of unlockable powerups and then Pikmin 3 cut them all out. They were finally brought back this year with Pikmin 4. And that's kind of the thing, this last year or two we've seen a huge surge in the use of progression systems from Nintendo. Even Mario Wonder got a meaningful progression system with the badges. It's bizarre to see the switch's 2D Mario game got a fleshed out progression system when the more core focused 3D one did not, but it reflects the movement behind the scenes.

A progression system can offer temporary buffs, the point is that access to those abilities is unlocked permanently. This was a common thing in most of their gamecube games, but was largely cut out during the Wii, Wii U and first 4-5 years of the switch. It's very clear that there has been a significant shift in regards to this game design in the last year or two, or rather because games take 3-4 years to make, it's likely this shift occured around 2018.
My guess is Nintendo saw that the switch was selling mostly to young adults and started to change some things to appeal to that audience.

I suspect the main thing behind this decision is giving players a reliable way to get frog coins outside of playing minigames for a billion hours or getting really good at Wiggler jumping.
We don't know, they haven't mentioned this at all. But the quality of the new localization leads me to believe its possibly Square, since it fits in well with newer localizations they've done in the past.
the UI and overall design are 100% nintendo. square might have done a pass of the text to make sure they didn't call culex a froo-froo tranny or something but it just reeks of modern nintendo game
Imagine making a 1 to 1 remake of a SNES game, make it entirely identical, basically only apply a filter on the original game and reselling it at full 70 dollars modern price, just for the game to be effectively immensely uglier and the text shrank.
Lmfao. If you like this, you like the death of gaming, and probably should consider playing barbie games and buying barbie toys instead.
anyone know why Japan has the small text in their writing?
first I found they read right to left then see they also read up to down now they have small text wtf is japan doing
The small text is called furigana, it tells you the reading of a kanji. Its primarily for children who have a harder time reading some kanji. And Japanese text is always read left to right/top to bottom just like English. What you're thinking of is speech bubble order in manga or line order in a book, those are read in right to left order.
They remade the BGM? That's such iconic music to me, because I was a really stupid kid when I first played this, and had no idea you had to walk into the blue void to progress, so I was stuck on Mario's Pad for a good while. Watching the intro movie was all I had.
Yes they;ve shown it already but only a very little part of it.

it's furigana. all it does is show the reading of the kanji (the complex big letter). it's intended so kids can play games with big words in them.
Furigana is such a stupid concept.
If the katakana or kanji can be expressed with hiragana, why even use it in the first place? Why not just use the hiragana?
If 漢字 can be read as かんじ, then why not just write かんじ in the first place? >because かんじ means something else!
Words can have multiple meanings, and already do in both Japanese AND English (and every other language).
I have yet to get a concrete explanation as to why anything other than hiragana is even necessary other than "it just is, okay?"

Its not that its strictly necessary, it just becomes very hard to read. Particularly because Japanese doesn't have spaces, so it would become very hard to figure out where words even begin or end.
Of course its true you could just implement spaces and treat it like English. The problem is that English uses an alphabet. There are a lot of ways to make distinguished words with an English alphabet, to the point where writing in English without spaces would look like shit but would still be mostly decipherable. Kana doesn't have this luxury because its not an alphabet, its the syllable equivalent (I forget the name), and its very basic. Its true that all languages have homographs, but without kanji Japanese would have an ABSURDLY huge amount of them. Almost every single word you'd see in a sentence would be a potential homograph and confuse the fuck out of you, even with spaces. Kana just isn't good enough on its own for that.

Japanese has very limited phonetic combinations so there is a SHIT TON of homophones (words that sound the same).
They need to put what they're talking about in their talk shows because without context you might think they are talking about a whole different thing, that's why they cram the screen with letters everywhere, so if you are zapping you catch the topic
I studied Japanese a bit (basic level) and they taught us a tonguetwister with "haha" which was completely gibberish in hiragana (basically over 9000 は kanas that meant a lot of different things)

I’m surprised Valentina is barely brought up in these threads meanwhile in Paper Mario threads everyone drools over the partners, I’m just saying because Valentina deserves love too regardless of censorship, TTYD fans may get censored too eventually.
Super Mario RPG suffers for not having a new female companion. All of them were dudes.
Also Smithy and Booster are the most memorable bosses, with Valentina coming third...MAYBE. I remember this "dog" moreso than her.
Not surprising, those two bosses could tear you a new asshole if you weren't ready for them. I remember as a kid i'd cheat to beat Johnny by just letting him KO mario so the fight doesn't turn into a 1v1.

Doubt it. Perfect timing should still technically be harder due to the smaller amount of frames you have to work with. The game's really lenient with the non-perfect timed hits.
Belome is memorable to me because that's about as far as I got most of the time while renting Super Mario RPG. Also Exor because the person who rented it at some point had a save file that was right at Exor and I couldn't beat him

WE shouldnt be surprised Nintendo is censoring the SMRPG remake when they literally let Blackrock and Sweet Baby co-write their games (chack their website, Xenoblade 3 and Fire Emblem 3 Houses are on there)!
But alcohol and side view of panties is something I guess they're okay with because Margarita/Valentina has both now, just no jiggle. A worthy trade-off I'd say, they both make more sense.
It's because they can just claim that it isn't panties and is just shorts. That is what is happening more and more. They really aren't panties. That is what happened with Mythra in Xenoblade 2 as well. If you look at her model, they are "shorts", but the skirt hides how attached they are to the outfit and so it looks like normal panties. CERO seems to care more about actuality instead of intent. I imagine this is because eventually, they will push back the "slope" of degeneracy.
>Panties >It only has to look like panties >I just want to look at girls butts, doesn't matter if they are clothed or not >Looking at girls? Why would I be a creep?
Your explanation of being shorts that just look like panties from the angle shown in game sounds plausible enough, but isn't Xenoblade 2 a game with a 15+ rating? Seems to be odd to use as your example in another game.
this game is made for fucking babies. if you're old enough to post on this board and care about SMRPG at all you probably played it as a baby. i got this game for my fucking 6 or 7th birthday. i beat this game as a fucking baby. the password is pearls that was the hardest fucking part of the game and i figured it out in like 2nd grade
Holy fuck, the new art style is so soulless. I can't I'm surprised though after nintendies ate up that horrible looking Link's Awakening remake. Absolutely 0 self-respect, just live and consume more products.
personally I always liked the name Bowser more. It's cute but tough sounding. Toadstool never fit her, it was too literal and didn't fit her girly girl image. Peach is cute and is her og japanese name.
I'd say both names are just too obvious and not very appealing.
The cartoon including Zelda's is weird, it's pretty much left at that. Between that and Woolsey's RPG translation it would appear NoA at least didn't care too much about naming consistency back then.
>Why did they stop calling him Koopa? >Why did they stop calling her Toadstool?
if you're actually curious at some point Nintendo had a professional come in and redesign all the characters, which is why at some point all their designs changed and a couple of the names. It was obviously the right choice because Bowser is so much more interesting than Koopa.
the japanese trailer literally says the words koopa. its the english version that comboed the usa/japanese names int bowser king of koopas, and peach toadstool.
You know the remake is gonna be good when the only forced gripe schizos can come up with is Valentina's split second boob jiggle (despite the fact her actual design is just as busty as it always was)
There are only two things added that increase difficulty: >Special Enemies, which are a randomly buffed enemy in a random encounter that have 3x health and 3x damage >Post-game boss rematches, that have extremely threatening mechanics even if you use all the game's overpowered equipment. A new Culex-related boss was also hinted at
This game is very good at exposing the console warriors. They made the game nearly 1:1 identical to the original and you still have people trying to claim it's soulless because of the fucking UI of all things, probably the least important part of the entire game.
Defending a soulless UI is strictly a zoomer tactic. I genuinely pity you because you can't see the objective superiority of a unique text font. >probably the least important part of the entire game
Motherfucker, it's an RPG. The story is delivered in text boxes and combat is carried out via text options. You're gonna spend the whole game looking at it. That's pretty important.
They probably wanted the atmosphere to be brighter. It is supposed to be a pretty cheerful location so I can see why. I don't know why people would care about such minor changes.
so how do you think super culex/3d culex/whatever stone is going to be found? personally i think about a treasure on forest maze one when it gets hit just displays "you failed" and mario falls off,i always trough i fucked with something but apparently that was the point,just a joke treasure
Wow the gameplay looks perfect
The art is beautiful and so faithful to the original!
They kept all the original characters and designs
Hey they even left the perverted joke in the game, that's cool
W-w-wait, wait a fucking minute...is that A DIFFERENT UI? SOULLES TRASH GET THIS SHIT OUT OF MY FACE, I PLAY GAMES SPECIFICALLY FOR THE UI MOTHERFUCKER, WHO GIVES A SHIT ABOUT THE ACTUAL VIDEO GAME >Ganker
Nintendo is autistic about archiving absolutely everything. It would have been super cool if they touched up the original 3D models they based the sprites on.

There is a near 100% chance that Geno will be added to the next Smash, so just wait.
I don't give two shits about the graphics. The AOE for timed hits is gay, but I'll deal. The REAL question is, how shit is the remixed music? Because the OST is one of my favorites on the SNES.
>The REAL question is, how shit is the remixed music? Because the OST is one of my favorites on the SNES
Firstly, let me say the original OST is in the game if you'd rather use it. As far as the new OST, it's clear they're trying to make the music fit better with the locations it's playing in. So the Forest Maze theme has a more chill mysterious tone to it. I think because of this, the new music may end up sounding less interesting in isolation, but be more effective in game compared to the original.

Here's the music they've shown by the way. As you can see, they've really slowed down the Forest Maze them, I believe because they think it fits the mood better.

The casino was really lame anyway, they could definitely do something better with that top secret area and the mystique surrounding it before you get there.
What's the deal with the EU gambling laws anyway? Paper Mario had its gambling minigames left in the Switch Online version and iirc Pokemons gen 1 and 2 on 3DS VC still had the Game Corner.
Not really. Maybe for certain characters, but I prefer going for max bonus. Mario's attack stat is his most useful but his magic stat is still useful for certain things like Jump or Super Jump or anything with a Jump/Fire weakness in general. Magic stat is also useful on Geno since he's the best at AOEing random battles and Mallow's attack stat is gonna be useless no matter what anyway.
It's particularly notable on switch games. Every Nintendo game like shares the UI of the switch OS itself for some stupid reason. Mario Wonder has these godawful transition screens that totally take you out of the game. Feels like the console itself is popping a menu up.
I know nintendo is famous for bright and cheery games but good lord does the new one look too much. A darker shade here and there can actually make things feel more comfy.
>hardware limited their ability to make a pink bed
What are you talking about thats just flat out fucking wrong, and besides they couldn't even keep it consistent because the chair is still blue! What a shit show. >pink bed >blue chair
What were they thinking?!
Maybe I should clarify that I didn't feel like the game had enough replayability for me to get back to it, but then again I'm one of those RPGfags so platformers aren't really my thing.
it's the same 2d mario games nintendo has been making but a different art style with new gimmicks
if you enjoyed the others there's no reason why you wouldn't enjoy wonder
but having a decent dpad does help make it more fun
It's great and worth buying. But it's also sgirt and not worth full price. I'd say wait for a sale but Nintendo games never fucking go on sale. Pirate it if you can I guess.
I played it for the first time a few years ago and I can say that it is pretty good. Easy as sin and the characters aren't really as well defined as the game's following would have you believe (especially Geno), but still a great time.
Epitome of soulless, they didn't even try with the colors, I know diversity hires probably don't know how to change the colors of stock assets but still.
This game supposedly has difficulty options now so hoping for a hard mode that's a minimum 1.5x stats to everything. If not, there is always the difficulty mods that will immediately drop not long after release.

The Japanese version used XXX, which is their version of a placeholder but it had to be changed in the English translation for obvious reasons.
yeah sure, she hides her panties behind a fireplace and the chancellor is embarrassed to see Mario find her panties in her own room.
They aren't hidden behind the fireplace you retard, they're next to the chair she probably changes at.
I thought you can only find that prompt when you check the the corner where the fireplace is attached to the wall, the chair's not involved at all.

Alcohol or panties
Alcohol due to moonshine jugs being XXX and Peach shown to get drunk in Super Mario Kart (JP). Panties because that was a common gag back then, panties in Japanese is a 3 character word and "XXX" could have been censoring that.
No, it's NOT a dildo or vibrator. This was back in the 90s, rarely any Japanese property would make a lewd joke based on that. No it was not lewd magazines since that was a gag specifically for male characters, never female ones.
Its obviously panties.
this,i don't get why retards think is a vibrator or shit like that specially considering how peach reacts to mario finding said object,she is angry not embarrassed like she would be with the genetic "yaaaa pervert" anime shit
peach being a borderline dysfunctional alcoholic and having to hide it from mario is really funny
>bowsers not trying to cuck mario he's trying to stage an intervention
I lean toward alcohol, because if you see that while Peach's attendant is in the room, she'll panic and exchange a mushroom for you to leave it where you found it. If it were panties, then they would need to be returned to the panty drawer. Not left in the secret stash spot by the fireplace. So it makes sense that she would hide booze where most people wouldn't look, and her attendant would makes sure the object stays hidden.
>I lean toward alcohol
Get real, it was panties
Alcohol is not an anime/manga trope and Mario would hardly be excited about it
Nta but I thought it was her bra when I was a kid because what else could be an incriminating find that was only 3 letters long
Well in Japanese it is also 3 characters but Japanese moonrunes are mostly syllabic so it cannot be bra.
Either way it is not alcohol.
Her secret stash of Peaches
Dildo, anon. Dildo. She's princess of the mushroom tip.

GIANT FUCKING MUSHROOM DIDLO! WHY DO YOU FUCKING THINK SHE LIKES TOAD SO DAMN MUCH?!
Anyways, just imagine yourself inside of Peach's cavernous vagina.

alcohol but retarded cumbrains think is something sexual even when peach was alcoholic in super mario kart
It's not alcohol. Alcohol is a two character word in Japanese (sake). It's a 3 character word and it's obviously Pa N Tsu.

It's these little details that make me hate remakes where the developers think they know better and change things and again we're lucky that it's a Japanese studio that's taking care of this remake and not a Chinese studio or whatever.
The fact that the bed and chair cushions don't match colors bothers my interior decorating sensibilities.
Wow that looks so good. Reminds me of the one where someone spins really fast and the original had a unique animation and this shit ass remaster literally just made them Tpose and rotate really fast.
What game?
hmm they kept it in...but they changed it slightly to show mario wasnt about to punch a child.
They didn't cut anything, and fixed the translation.
I am actually impressed.
Peach is the Japanese canon, left was the censorship.

They censored her real name, not buying.

TL;DR Miyamoto was in a battle against Nintendo marketers trying to bottle Mario as just "for kids" I personally believe he lost this battle
Based, honestly. I'm not sure how a peace sign signifies a children's character but I agree with him that Mario should be for all ages. I mean he's a fucking Italian plumber. It's amazing that he became so popular with kids.
its not a peace sign you schmuck, it's a V for Victory
>I mean he's a fucking Italian plumber. It's amazing that he became so popular with kids.
No its not.
Mario is basically a Popeye ripoff.
>Miyamoto bans Mario from doing a V-for-victory sign because it's too childish.
>Sakurai makes Pit flash a V-sign beaten and bruised at the end of the final boss of KIU because even if it's childish, he understands the character is a goofball at heart
Gotta appreciate Sakurai's autism for character integrity

lol this really looks like a oversimplified rpg for kids. Can't believe grown ass adults on Ganker are excited to play it.
It's simple, it's for kids, but it's a great game.
i personally think this remake is unnecesary because the snes original plays perfectly, but you know, zoomers need fancy "new" things.
rpgs are already oversimplified games.
Yeah I'm excited to play a remake of the RPG that got me into RPGs 30 odd years ago
that is always what sm rpg was

Post your favorite "mature" rpgs made for "adults" so I can laugh.
If you couldn't tell, Nintendo fans are very childish. Like this guy
. He's being extreme and implying there's only toddler shit and "mature" shit, no in-between, because he has the mind of a child and can't understand nuance. Like most Nintendo fans which is why they always call the things they do the best thing ever and better than everyone else.

DO THE MARIO
not that it would matter, if u picked a stat repeatedly, it would give u less and less, and if u pick the 1 of the 3, that grants more stats, you'd end up with the same amount at the end (of that stat) the downside is, picking just one, would leave the others less, while not actually having more of the stat you want.
its a shitty illusion, for a game thats piss easy, and didnt need that kind of "balance".
This is literally peak soulless though

This is gay shit put in to use for viral marketing.
It looks shit
Them dancing on stage doesn't fit with Super Mario RPG's aesthetic
The "LEVEL UP!!!" font looks like absolute low effort photoshopped-in shit instead of making it stylized like for example putting a Jumbotron-style LED sign.
The same goes for the other circular lights surrounding them. They look photoshopped in.
The character models are peak soulless because it's just the stock character models shrunk down because Mario has to always use his PERFECT design.
It looks like a goddamn mock-up made by a fan on deviantart.
I bet you also enjoy eating shit.

This has been a rampant thing in recent years. Devs don't give a shit about text anymore.
>Devs don't give a shit about text anymore.
You know, western devs have often been pretty shit about this.
But the japs used to be proud of their typography.
The UI has been modernized. Some things look like what you'd expect to see in a Nintendo Direct rather than in-game.
I don't normally give a shit about UIs, but I think they should have worked a bit to make the UI look integrated into the game's artwork rather than generic.
It makes me wonder if there isn't some standard the guys need to follow because this idea of making "sterilized" UIs seems to be the norm even when the idea is to make a faithful remake of an old game.
>I don't normally give a shit about UIs
I wouldn't either but the last two console gens have been fucking disastrous for UI design and the trend has only recently started to reverse from some devs
>The UI has been modernized.
>modernized
Shitty buzzword.
It's just lazy generic stock shit.
>if there isn't some standard the guys need to follow
that's it
Wonder if there'll be a font mod at the least.
Getting rid of beautiful stylized fonts has been an "accessibility" thing for ages.
I wouldn't fucking mind if it was an OPTION, to turn on at the OPTION MENU, but devs are lazy.
there definitely is a standard, when you start seeing basically the same HUD in every square enix game it's painfully obvious that they have internal committees or whatever that makes these up, it probably saves dev time but kills the soul
>with stock text box that's harder to read
Stop blaming a perfectly sized font on your inability to wear some fucking glasses
>I WANT MY GAMES TO LOOK CORPORATE AS FUCK AND I'M NOT JOKING

this shit is being leaked like 2 days ahead, not a week.
Anons said the same thing about Wonder being released as early as TOTK. It'll happen when it happens.
Mario Wonder was anticipated. This is a jarpig.
Sonic Superstars leaked earlier than Wonder. This and TTYD will probably leak. Not about to put money on it but it's likely.
ok but I wanna know is samus still resting up for mother brain?
Link is still in so she should be too.
Really? Someone post it
>I saw a video of the Bowyer fight, and the buttons were all greyed out, meaning they weren't active yet
No, they just removed the color from the buttons. One of them had an X on it. It wasn't the first turn.
What's likely happening here is a scripted sequence. ALL the buttons are greyed out, and this is the FIRST battle in the game where you can perform a triple move. Bowyer most certainly does not have 132 HP. So what likely happened here is they added a scripted sequence when you beat him where Bowyer shuts off all the buttons so you can't do anything, and so you're meant to use the triple move instead (because it uses the minus button).
To answer your question though, the bosses look more or less statistically identical. Random battles are going to be overall harder though, thanks to the special enemy mechanic.
Bingo.
>No, they just removed the color from the buttons. One of them had an X on it. It wasn't the first turn.
Disregard this part, I meant to delete it but forgot. They're all deactivated in the footage.
>Random battles are going to be overall harder though, thanks to the special enemy mechanic.
The what?
New mechanic that has enemies with 3X the attack and HP I believe. Guess there's the run option... or Geno if his trick works.
>randomly buffed enemy in a random encounter that have 3x health and 3x damage
You sure this isn't the game just saying you're underleveled?
Strange way to rubberband you up by throwing you in severe danger.
I mean, given the way the game looks and it's Nintendo, well....
Goombas only have 16 HP. This one survived 45 damage. Also, that's Bandit's Way, where the game expects you to go from level 2 to 3. So its unlikely to be related to your level in any way.
Now this is really surprising. Nintendo who only a few years ago was pretty strongly against progression systems took an already strong progression system and has further cranked up the rewards structure. I'm happy about it, just surprised to see Nintendo acknowledging the inherent value of strong progression systems in a game.
The example you are thinking of is the recent Paper Mario games? IS isn't involved with this one as far as anyone knows.
It wasn't just Paper Mario. Up until the last few years Nintendo cut progression systems out of nearly every franchise, with the exceptions being Zelda and Japanese focused games like Fire Emblem and Xenoblade. Look at for example Mario 64 and Sunshine which both had progression systems, albeit minor ones. 64 had the different hats you could unlock to give you new abilities, and sunshine had Yoshi and the two FLUDD attachments in the hub world. Then Galaxy had absolutely nothing and 3D World and Odyssey followed along. Pikmin is another example, where Pikmin 2 had a lot of unlockable powerups and then Pikmin 3 cut them all out. They were finally brought back this year with Pikmin 4. And that's kind of the thing, this last year or two we've seen a huge surge in the use of progression systems from Nintendo. Even Mario Wonder got a meaningful progression system with the badges. It's bizarre to see the switch's 2D Mario game got a fleshed out progression system when the more core focused 3D one did not, but it reflects the movement behind the scenes.
Mario 64 hats were temporary effects.
A progression system can offer temporary buffs, the point is that access to those abilities is unlocked permanently. This was a common thing in most of their gamecube games, but was largely cut out during the Wii, Wii U and first 4-5 years of the switch. It's very clear that there has been a significant shift in regards to this game design in the last year or two, or rather because games take 3-4 years to make, it's likely this shift occured around 2018.
My guess is Nintendo saw that the switch was selling mostly to young adults and started to change some things to appeal to that audience.
I suspect the main thing behind this decision is giving players a reliable way to get frog coins outside of playing minigames for a billion hours or getting really good at Wiggler jumping.
Considering a non-perfect block reduces your damage by half, this Special Enemy Wiggler did 62 base damage to Mario here.
>But the Link never Awaken
>it's the correct Link, too
SOVL STATVS: RETAINED
Most important is if the F-Zero Machines and Arwing Figurines will be in the Barrel Volcano Shop
They'll be replaced with karts from Mario Kart.
Well, they kept Samus and Link, so it's very likely
No reason to replace them when they recently released F-Zero 100
Might get this tbh. Never played the snes version due to EU. I've heard you people say this game is good.
I wish they would make a RPG like this but in the Zelda universe.
mario if he rpg
recommend me a speedrun to watch before bd
Why does Peach have a cuck chair in her room for Mario?
Who is making this? Square or Nintendo?
nintendo. square finally relented and said "fine, whatever, it's a mario game, just do what you want with it".
I mean, the multibiliion dollar multi-decade long version of that, at least.
We don't know, they haven't mentioned this at all. But the quality of the new localization leads me to believe its possibly Square, since it fits in well with newer localizations they've done in the past.
the UI and overall design are 100% nintendo. square might have done a pass of the text to make sure they didn't call culex a froo-froo tranny or something but it just reeks of modern nintendo game
Nintendo is currently in its switch golden age so I'll take it.
Imagine making a 1 to 1 remake of a SNES game, make it entirely identical, basically only apply a filter on the original game and reselling it at full 70 dollars modern price, just for the game to be effectively immensely uglier and the text shrank.
Lmfao. If you like this, you like the death of gaming, and probably should consider playing barbie games and buying barbie toys instead.
>entirely identical
Imagine just making up scenarios in your head and expecting anyone to care

This is a translation, it didn´t mean easier as difficulty, but as quality of life elements they added.

God the remake forest looks like Deviantart dogshit

this is not ok, it was already a game for elementary school age children. Are we all just getting dumber?
Is there a reason for the forest to be purple? Why is it purple?
Yeah everything is being dumbed down for retards, people would rather be told what to do.
This remake is so diabolical man our childhoods are ruined fr.
God, that is annoying as shit. Why couldn't Type A be the "all action commands use A", while type B was "Specials will use Y instead of A"
Yeah I don't like that either. I don't get the point of making that an option only to go halfway on it anyway.
>Auto-save
>on a FUCKING RPG
Peak insanity
It triggers specifically when you leave or enter a world map area. That's why they made this change here:
Forgot the image.
anyone know why Japan has the small text in their writing?
first I found they read right to left then see they also read up to down now they have small text wtf is japan doing
can someone answer in the next few minutes? i have to go to bed soon
The small text is called furigana, it tells you the reading of a kanji. Its primarily for children who have a harder time reading some kanji. And Japanese text is always read left to right/top to bottom just like English. What you're thinking of is speech bubble order in manga or line order in a book, those are read in right to left order.
Yes they;ve shown it already but only a very little part of it.
Its not only for children its useful for people learning kanji as well, its like subtitles for a kanji as well as pronunciation guide as they can be pronounced in different ways with different combinations.
>Japanese text is always read left to right/top to bottom just like English
Not always. Older Japanese is written top to bottom, right to left columns.
Furigana is such a stupid concept.
If the katakana or kanji can be expressed with hiragana, why even use it in the first place? Why not just use the hiragana?
If 漢字 can be read as かんじ, then why not just write かんじ in the first place?
>because かんじ means something else!
Words can have multiple meanings, and already do in both Japanese AND English (and every other language).
I have yet to get a concrete explanation as to why anything other than hiragana is even necessary other than "it just is, okay?"
what a stupid fucking comment
Its not that its strictly necessary, it just becomes very hard to read. Particularly because Japanese doesn't have spaces, so it would become very hard to figure out where words even begin or end.
Of course its true you could just implement spaces and treat it like English. The problem is that English uses an alphabet. There are a lot of ways to make distinguished words with an English alphabet, to the point where writing in English without spaces would look like shit but would still be mostly decipherable. Kana doesn't have this luxury because its not an alphabet, its the syllable equivalent (I forget the name), and its very basic. Its true that all languages have homographs, but without kanji Japanese would have an ABSURDLY huge amount of them. Almost every single word you'd see in a sentence would be a potential homograph and confuse the fuck out of you, even with spaces. Kana just isn't good enough on its own for that.
So Japanese is just a really shitty language then?
Chinese is worse.
Speaking in monotone is impossible.
Japanese has very limited phonetic combinations so there is a SHIT TON of homophones (words that sound the same).
They need to put what they're talking about in their talk shows because without context you might think they are talking about a whole different thing, that's why they cram the screen with letters everywhere, so if you are zapping you catch the topic
I studied Japanese a bit (basic level) and they taught us a tonguetwister with "haha" which was completely gibberish in hiragana (basically over 9000 は kanas that meant a lot of different things)
it's furigana. all it does is show the reading of the kanji (the complex big letter). it's intended so kids can play games with big words in them.
Nigga, did you not read two posts below the one you were replying to?
No, instead I saw the reply he made to himself where he asked for an answer and assumed he didn't have one yet, not knowing he got an answer literally a minute beforehand. My bad.
>It triggers specifically when you leave or enter a world map area.
How does that make it any better?
Any game without an auto-save of some sort is asking for a lot of whiners. SO2R has one as well as traditional save slots.
Autosave on RPGs is RETARDED
Just put a quick save option
FF Pixel Remasters have autosave
Actually surprised they kept the bit where the game calls you out for trying to sequence break in... is it still called Kerokero Sewers?

Super Mario RPG suffers for not having a new female companion. All of them were dudes.
Also Smithy and Booster are the most memorable bosses, with Valentina coming third...MAYBE. I remember this "dog" moreso than her.
For me, fucking Jonathan Jones and Yaridovich are far more memorable.
Right on, man. Johnny was a bro amongst bros.
Not surprising, those two bosses could tear you a new asshole if you weren't ready for them. I remember as a kid i'd cheat to beat Johnny by just letting him KO mario so the fight doesn't turn into a 1v1.
You could just not kill the minions
it just occurred to me that this fight might actually be harder in the remake since perfect timed hits will do AoE damage whether you like it or not.
Doubt it. Perfect timing should still technically be harder due to the smaller amount of frames you have to work with. The game's really lenient with the non-perfect timed hits.
God i wanted johnny to become a party member. I even fought that fight with mario dead, which is cool because mario can't 1v1 johnny if he's out cold.
Belome is memorable to me because that's about as far as I got most of the time while renting Super Mario RPG. Also Exor because the person who rented it at some point had a save file that was right at Exor and I couldn't beat him
>Super Mario RPG suffers for not having a new female companion.
No it doesnt. Fuck you. Peach was more than enough.
Let us have a Shonen RPG once in a while(FF15 doesnt count its kpop shit made for chicks) you simpering waifuhomosexuals.
If you didnt think a party with Mario Bowser and Geno was not the coolest shit you are low test and have no soul.
It was purely from a porn perspective.
You may beat your meat to Geno getting pegged in peace.

It's funny to me that they turned the weird rendering on the leg part of her model into a pair of string panties. Surprisingly adult and suggestive.
It is kind of hard to tell what is going on with her legs ingeneral. I wonder if they had the original drawings from before modeling to consult as well.
Eyyy I’m glad to see Valentina appreciation here
>string panties
oh baby
On the brightside, Geno and Mallow are on all regional boxart this time
Wonder why Yoshi made it in Japan's first box. Pretty minor appearance.
That was the era where they shilled Yoshi everywhere

thanks anon but you should actually try playing some good games instead of pokemon for the 50th time
>characters are properly squished
>mindless forward stare
>models are simply updated
I honestly don't know what you guys could possibly want otherwise. I'm a huge stickler and even I think this is fine
New AAA games bad.
Old AAA games good.
Outrage fun.
>models are simply updated
They are the generic stock models they use in every game except they made them chibified and called it a day
You're a generic stock model except they made you retardified and called it a day kek

Too expensive.

The remake looks really, really bad.
And I'm easy to please.
The remake looks really, really good.
And I'm hard to please.
It doesn't. The remake's lightning took out all of the personality of the original
And the horrid character designs(just the stock character models super-deformed) and the censored boob jiggle and the soulless UI
I never played the og game but the art style in this remake looks worse
There is just no pleasing some people it seems.
>room changed to be more in line with the aesthetic brand image of Peach's Castle portrayed in the mainline games
THIS is the mandate.
Are they even going to try to balance the game bosses around the fact you have a super move gauge you can constantly filling up?
I saw a video of the Bowyer fight, and the buttons were all greyed out, meaning they weren't active yet, so it was just the first turn of the battle, and the super move was used and KILLS BOWYER IN ONE HIT.
Did they just not bother to make the bosses any harder, and just let you have a "kill the boss instantly" button you need to fill up to use? That sucks if true.
Bowyer has like 750 hp and that gauge attack did around the 200 iirc
It's likely modified footage just to showcase em
It's not like it's any different than landing a bunch of super jumps dealing over a hundred damage anyways it's just a flashier move
I forgot to add that Bowyer will likely act as the full team gauge attack tutorial seeing as before you even get Geno you're stuck with a Toad summon move
WE shouldnt be surprised Nintendo is censoring the SMRPG remake when they literally let Blackrock and Sweet Baby co-write their games (chack their website, Xenoblade 3 and Fire Emblem 3 Houses are on there)!
>English
Only the boob jiggle's censored thoughbeit, and ESRB would probably fuck them for that
CERO is petty about that as well these days.
But alcohol and side view of panties is something I guess they're okay with because Margarita/Valentina has both now, just no jiggle. A worthy trade-off I'd say, they both make more sense.
It's because they can just claim that it isn't panties and is just shorts. That is what is happening more and more. They really aren't panties. That is what happened with Mythra in Xenoblade 2 as well. If you look at her model, they are "shorts", but the skirt hides how attached they are to the outfit and so it looks like normal panties. CERO seems to care more about actuality instead of intent. I imagine this is because eventually, they will push back the "slope" of degeneracy.
>Panties
>It only has to look like panties
>I just want to look at girls butts, doesn't matter if they are clothed or not
>Looking at girls? Why would I be a creep?
Your explanation of being shorts that just look like panties from the angle shown in game sounds plausible enough, but isn't Xenoblade 2 a game with a 15+ rating? Seems to be odd to use as your example in another game.
Bullshit

another episode of Ganker shitting demselves over a remake meanwhile the rest of the world enjoys it
Can't wait to play this @ 4k 60 on my 60 inch oled a week before Switch plebs can.
for FREE BTW
Toadstool sounds like frog shit
Sooooo nsp when?
has anyone said anything about that one permanently missable frog coin at the beginning yet? I wonder if they fixed that
oh nice
The evil has been defeated.
this game is made for fucking babies. if you're old enough to post on this board and care about SMRPG at all you probably played it as a baby. i got this game for my fucking 6 or 7th birthday. i beat this game as a fucking baby. the password is pearls that was the hardest fucking part of the game and i figured it out in like 2nd grade
If you want a better remake, just squint your eyes until the jaggies disappear on the left image.
i was never book smart i was money smart
I swear every jrpg where you can go to a girl's room there is a gag about panties.
Is there a leaked soundtrack anywhere?
No. The game isn't out yet. Various trailers and previews of the game have in-game music however.
Holy fuck, the new art style is so soulless. I can't I'm surprised though after nintendies ate up that horrible looking Link's Awakening remake. Absolutely 0 self-respect, just live and consume more products.
>11 days
I need it, bros
Why did they stop calling him Koopa?
Why did they stop calling her Toadstool?
personally I always liked the name Bowser more. It's cute but tough sounding. Toadstool never fit her, it was too literal and didn't fit her girly girl image. Peach is cute and is her og japanese name.
I'd say both names are just too obvious and not very appealing.
>Why did they stop calling him Koopa?
They never started. He was called Bowser, King of the Koopa in the SMB1 manual.
but the cartoon
The cartoon including Zelda's is weird, it's pretty much left at that. Between that and Woolsey's RPG translation it would appear NoA at least didn't care too much about naming consistency back then.
Dobson pls go
>Why did they stop calling him Koopa?
>Why did they stop calling her Toadstool?
if you're actually curious at some point Nintendo had a professional come in and redesign all the characters, which is why at some point all their designs changed and a couple of the names. It was obviously the right choice because Bowser is so much more interesting than Koopa.
>Bowser is so much more interesting than Koopa
Not really?
Wtf does Bowser even mean?
the japanese trailer literally says the words koopa. its the english version that comboed the usa/japanese names int bowser king of koopas, and peach toadstool.
You know the remake is gonna be good when the only forced gripe schizos can come up with is Valentina's split second boob jiggle (despite the fact her actual design is just as busty as it always was)
It will leak a week prior. A lot of games do, and I don't see how this isn't anticipated.
Tangentially related.

>Geno gets into TETRIS
kek. Looks like a cool event, might pick the game back up just to get the skin.
>Nothing for F-Zero 99, not even that mine cart minigame turned into a race track
I guess Nintendo has already forgotten about it
That sounds more involved to make than just a new texture and music.
Looks like an android game
The same could be said of all switch games.
We're past the point where just RTSs look like mobile games now all games look like mobile games unless they have RT or some shit.
Yup, like Secret of Mana remake
But bing bing wahoo toddlers will eat it up
WHATS THE DIFFICULTY OF THE GAME
PLEASE TELL ME THERE IS A HARD MODE I NEED TO SEETHE
There are only two things added that increase difficulty:
>Special Enemies, which are a randomly buffed enemy in a random encounter that have 3x health and 3x damage
>Post-game boss rematches, that have extremely threatening mechanics even if you use all the game's overpowered equipment. A new Culex-related boss was also hinted at
Has any preview mentioned the item descriptions?
This game is very good at exposing the console warriors. They made the game nearly 1:1 identical to the original and you still have people trying to claim it's soulless because of the fucking UI of all things, probably the least important part of the entire game.
Defending a soulless UI is strictly a zoomer tactic. I genuinely pity you because you can't see the objective superiority of a unique text font.
>probably the least important part of the entire game
Motherfucker, it's an RPG. The story is delivered in text boxes and combat is carried out via text options. You're gonna spend the whole game looking at it. That's pretty important.
Will the unused enemies in the game data of the original happen? The Bahamutt with spiky sunglasses in particular is interesting.
WHY DID THEY CHANGE THE COLOR OF THE FLOOR AND THE WALL
Because the Mario-side things have been updated to current designs.
They probably wanted the atmosphere to be brighter. It is supposed to be a pretty cheerful location so I can see why. I don't know why people would care about such minor changes.
so how do you think super culex/3d culex/whatever stone is going to be found? personally i think about a treasure on forest maze one when it gets hit just displays "you failed" and mario falls off,i always trough i fucked with something but apparently that was the point,just a joke treasure
Shiny Stone II is probably the reward for the other boss rematches.
At the end of a secret new area that is full of pallette swap enemies that opens up after beating Culex the first time.
It's the reward for getting 1000 super jumps in a row.
Wow the gameplay looks perfect
The art is beautiful and so faithful to the original!
They kept all the original characters and designs
Hey they even left the perverted joke in the game, that's cool
W-w-wait, wait a fucking minute...is that A DIFFERENT UI? SOULLES TRASH GET THIS SHIT OUT OF MY FACE, I PLAY GAMES SPECIFICALLY FOR THE UI MOTHERFUCKER, WHO GIVES A SHIT ABOUT THE ACTUAL VIDEO GAME
>Ganker
>They kept all the original characters and designs

No they did not

>No they did not
cunt, are you fucking blind?
Are you blind?
Its just the stock character models chibified
See pic in
>Boxart
LMAO
The in-game sprites were based on those models you moron
The in-game sprites also looked nothing like the soulless modernslop stock models
Sure thing buddy
Yeah looks closer to the original boxart and nothing like the soulless stockslop models of today
fucking blind
Nintendo is autistic about archiving absolutely everything. It would have been super cool if they touched up the original 3D models they based the sprites on.
If they had the original models, it's possible Nintendo only got the final sprites.
I hope for another massive leak so some autistic fans remake the original with the original models
I just preordered a physical copy. A shame they didn't release a Geno amiibo.
What would it be useful for? They phased out functionality in most things.
To sit on my shelf.
>I just preordered a physical copy. A shame they didn't release a Geno amiibo.
There is a near 100% chance that Geno will be added to the next Smash, so just wait.
Smash isn’t the only thing, Geno should also get in Mario Kart, it is the best selling Switch Game after all
Shame Warioware never got Amiibos or Plushes
I would kill for a 9-Volt amiibo along with Mallow and Geno ones

I don't give two shits about the graphics. The AOE for timed hits is gay, but I'll deal. The REAL question is, how shit is the remixed music? Because the OST is one of my favorites on the SNES.
>timed hits
*Perfect timed hits.
>Perfect timed hits.
Is that something in the original game?
Yes, its not new. But getting an AOE on a perfect timed hit is.
>The REAL question is, how shit is the remixed music? Because the OST is one of my favorites on the SNES
Firstly, let me say the original OST is in the game if you'd rather use it. As far as the new OST, it's clear they're trying to make the music fit better with the locations it's playing in. So the Forest Maze theme has a more chill mysterious tone to it. I think because of this, the new music may end up sounding less interesting in isolation, but be more effective in game compared to the original.
Here's the music they've shown by the way. As you can see, they've really slowed down the Forest Maze them, I believe because they think it fits the mood better.
I didn't know you could swap. That's a nice feature. And yeah, I don't like the way more muted Forest Maze.
i wonder if the game intro still has these scenes that where never in the game and where beta footage or some shit
Everyone talks about the battle themes and forest maze and shit but the new BGM im most excited to hear above all else is the intro movie BGM.
Same. Really got you excited to play the game back in the day
I hate orchestral remake ost "updates" in most rereleases. This one doesn't seem like an exception.
I have nothing to base this on but I have a bad feeling they didn't remake the intro movie.
They probably did because they remade the BGM, but they very likely altered it to add in all the new cutscenes they created.
They remade the BGM? That's such iconic music to me, because I was a really stupid kid when I first played this, and had no idea you had to walk into the blue void to progress, so I was stuck on Mario's Pad for a good while. Watching the intro movie was all I had.
FORCE SET ON!
CHARGE STANDBY OK!!
IKUZO!
JUSTICE BREAKAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!
any news of casino still being in the game considering retarded eur laws of gambling that caused pokemon to kill these fun minigames?
No way to know until it comes out.
'Closed for renovations' sign
Sorry 🙁
The casino was really lame anyway, they could definitely do something better with that top secret area and the mystique surrounding it before you get there.
What's the deal with the EU gambling laws anyway? Paper Mario had its gambling minigames left in the Switch Online version and iirc Pokemons gen 1 and 2 on 3DS VC still had the Game Corner.
Not that anon but i believe their shit requires games with actual casino gambling to be rated T or higher
The post battle yoshi egg gambling mini-game made it, so the casino still has a chance.
So was the meta for the first game to just spam Attack bonuses for all level ups?
Not really. Maybe for certain characters, but I prefer going for max bonus. Mario's attack stat is his most useful but his magic stat is still useful for certain things like Jump or Super Jump or anything with a Jump/Fire weakness in general. Magic stat is also useful on Geno since he's the best at AOEing random battles and Mallow's attack stat is gonna be useless no matter what anyway.
I hope we get more Booster Porn
I want you to know I laughed to the opening of his song when I saw that image.

I wonder if this is the same one I stumbled upon when I was younger?
Man why are UIs so homogenized now. Why does no one care that fantasy RPGs have UIs fitting for scifi games now?
I suspect it's because no one wants to pay graphic designers anymore.
It's particularly notable on switch games. Every Nintendo game like shares the UI of the switch OS itself for some stupid reason. Mario Wonder has these godawful transition screens that totally take you out of the game. Feels like the console itself is popping a menu up.
whoever calls this remake "SoULlEsS" you unironically are supporting reddit sticker star fans so fuck off we want GOOD mario rpgs to come back
2D > 3D
Always is.
Thank you. I didn't know I needed a MarioRPG doujin until now.
So when can we expect the XCI file leaks from some random gamestop employee?
I want to play it early just like with SM Wonder
The 10th, but could be earlier. I can't imagine it being much later than that
I know nintendo is famous for bright and cheery games but good lord does the new one look too much. A darker shade here and there can actually make things feel more comfy.
Ikr? Inside the caves in Midas River look like they've gone a little too heavy on the bloom. They could have toned it down a little tbh
>left: soul
>right: wrong fucking colours for everything
How can you fuck up so spectacularly?
The one on the right is the original design
but they couldn't make it since hardware limitations
>The one on the right is the original design
>but they couldn't make it since hardware limitations
shit b8
have a nice day
why did you just randomly say a tattoo number from the holocaust? are you some sort of nazi?
>hardware limited their ability to make a pink bed
What are you talking about thats just flat out fucking wrong, and besides they couldn't even keep it consistent because the chair is still blue! What a shit show.
>pink bed
>blue chair
What were they thinking?!
Question: is Super Mario Bros Wonder any good? Is it worth buying?
It was alright. I was gifted it but had no incentive to play it again after 100%ing it in like 3 days.
Online with randos was pretty pleasant.
>I stopped playing after I finished all the content the game had to offer
shocking development
Maybe I should clarify that I didn't feel like the game had enough replayability for me to get back to it, but then again I'm one of those RPGfags so platformers aren't really my thing.
it's the same 2d mario games nintendo has been making but a different art style with new gimmicks
if you enjoyed the others there's no reason why you wouldn't enjoy wonder
but having a decent dpad does help make it more fun
It's great and worth buying. But it's also sgirt and not worth full price. I'd say wait for a sale but Nintendo games never fucking go on sale. Pirate it if you can I guess.
Watch kpop!
why is it that only nintendo can remake games properly?
the colours look so much nicer
I never actually played this game. Is it really actually as good as people make it out to be or is it a nostalgia thing?
I played it for the first time a few years ago and I can say that it is pretty good. Easy as sin and the characters aren't really as well defined as the game's following would have you believe (especially Geno), but still a great time.
It's very charming.
It's fairly short and easy (though there's a huge difficulty spike during the speardovich fight for some reason)
He and Johnny are the onset of more magic-heavy enemies. And you normally couldn't perform timed defenses against AOE magic.
Culex's ass
>he's still just an upscaled 16bit sprite
SOUL retained.
I kinda wanted him to be a 2dHD sprite
hoping the rumored super culex just uses another remixed FF4 song like the zeromus theme
Epitome of soulless, they didn't even try with the colors, I know diversity hires probably don't know how to change the colors of stock assets but still.
Has anyone uploaded an ost yet?
The game's not even leaked yet.
Curious when will see the leak xci.
This weekend, just like happened with Mario Wonder
It's out! Enjoy
fuck off
Neosquid is just gone, isn't it?
Out where venom ?
Bros I can't fucking wait.
This game supposedly has difficulty options now so hoping for a hard mode that's a minimum 1.5x stats to everything. If not, there is always the difficulty mods that will immediately drop not long after release.
