The Super Mario RPG remake is an impossible wish come true. The biggest complaints for this release pale in comparison to incredible visuals, new intense challenges, fantastic music, and well-retained charm. This release is sure to be worthwhile for both fans of the original and first-time Mario players.
This new version of Super Mario RPG still feels fresh. It's another win for Nintendo's approach to remaking their cult classics; as faithful as Metroid Prime Remastered, but updated just enough to entice new players.

The music in this game is so damn sublime, both original and remixed versions.

Charming and funny all throughout. I can see why this game was given the legacy it has earned.

Super Mario RPG is so faithful to the original that calling it a remake feels disingenuous. The game is more of a top-to-bottom remaster. Every scrap of it had been re-built, polished, and reborn for the modern era. The visuals, the music, and the controls all feel crisp and clean. The writing holds up quite well. And there are a few pleasant surprises for fans of the original release. Since I'm so familiar with the game, I wish there was more new content, but I'm at peace with this. It's better that the game be preserved for a new audience. But whether this is your first time playing or your fifteenth, you're gonna love Super Mario RPG for the Switch.
Beautifully polished classic that offers an entertaining adventure for Mario fans and RPG beginners. Experienced gamers shouldn't stumble over the low level of difficulty.
Super Mario RPG is a strong remake from Nintendo thanks to the updated graphics, music and animations. It shows that the 1996-game is a timeless classic due to it's great story and memorable cast of characters.
Super Mario RPG is one of the strangest Mario games in its history: with its world of characters seemingly drawn from an entirely different universe, its darker-than-usual graphic style and its turn-based gameplay, the late Squaresoft's game is one of the Super Famicom's diamonds in the rough that had never before made it to the Old Continent, with a proper localization. A mistake that has now been rectified, with a meticulous translation, a graphical overhaul that does justice to the 1996 game and gameplay adjustments that allow younger players to enjoy it.
Even without some necessary changes, Super Mario RPG remains one of the plumber's most charming and eccentric adventures. The remake faithfully maintains it's quirkyness while expanding the magic with one of the Switch's most impressive graphic treatments. If you are a fan of the original, however, know that this is not exactly the remake that the original deserved.
Give me frog coins, give me Mario, give me frog coins, give me mallow, give me see ya, give me geno, give me cookies!
God I love this game.

Looks very nice and plays fine, but overall just very bland and boring. Extremely easy, baby's first RPG difficulty level. I get its a remake, but always heard how great **** it was and its just a very baseline, safe RPG.

Sometimes just a visual upgrade and a few refinements are enough to refresh an old classic to a modern audience, but that's not really the case for Mario RPG. The game as whole (gameplay, story and level design) feels now a bit too simple, not to say a little dated. Still a good game though. It just doesn't have that timeless factor as many Nintendo classics from that era.

This game is extremely boring and tedious. I bought into the hype and I’m disappointed. I think Wonder is a 10/10 game. I love Mario. I even love turned based RPGs. But I like depth and this game has zero. I don’t get the hype. I see the charm but that is absolutely it. Play a real turned based RPG. Buy Octopath 2 instead.

It's an okay game but these reviews are highly inflated. The story is extremely linear and the combat progression is as well. It feels like you're on a conveyor belt where you hardly have to make any choices. You'rein charge of your equipment and then three stats. Outside of that there's really just one or two best moves for a character. it gets old pretty quick.
I imagine this game was groundbreaking and exciting in 1995. Not so much today.
