A few customers also expressed concerns about the game's price point and the lack of additional features.

    Super Mario RPG was one of the first rpgs i played and got me into the genre. When i saw it was being remade, I knew I had to get it! It looks beautiful and been such a joy to play. It keeps everything from the original and adds a little more to add to its charm!

    This was an excellent remaster of a classic Nintendo game. Gameplay is easy to understand and it's a great game for new or seasoned fans.

    Wonderful story, excellent puzzles (late in the game), music and gameplay. Super Mario RPG was one of the very few Mario games that I completed (yes, it was that good IMO).

    This is exactly what you'd expect for a remake, some quality of life upgrades and visual updates, but the rest was left alone. Don't fix something that isn't broke. As a side note, I had this preordered through Best Buy for delivery, and it arrived day of release.

    Did not realize it is an EXACT remake. No new features at all. Essentially upgraded from PS1 to PS3 graphics is all. Should never have paid $60 for this, but that is on me. If you are a huge fan of the original, and just looking for modern day nostalgia, without any change to the integrity of the classic, than this is perfect for you. If you were expecting maybe some additions, or improvements, you are out of luck.

    This is a great and faithful remake to the original, with some quality of life sprinkled in. You can choose between original and new sound track and the monster journal is a nice touch among other things. Its worth picking up if you loved the original.

    A perfeft rendition and remake of the classic Mario RPG for the SNES. Absolutely loved playing through it and even though the original came out before I was born, it still felt like that classic mario magic was still there after all these years.

    Awesome classic remake! Great intro for kids wanting to get into RPG’s. Easy to follow and has the how to’s in it. Played the original, and this so far retains that essence of greatness from Square and Nintendo. Still a great game. Must own.

    Amazing remake. Just like I remembered it from the 90s. Somehow Nintendo managed to bring this experience to the new generation in a perfect way. The “cinematics” managed to capitalize on the nostalgia and make the game better than the original release.
