    I wish my experience was better, I believe that I would have really enjoyed playing this game, but I never got the chance. Shortly after starting the game my Switch started to glitch, then errored out and crashed. I could not get it to turn back on and ended up having to buy a new Switch Console.

    So I was really excited about this game until I realized they didn't change much of anything from back in the 90's. It still fun but I wish I wouldn't've paid full price

    This game was a big disappointment… we probably should have done more research on how the game was, we were hoping for more of the actual old school Mario game but it’s more of a story that you go through, we bought this with the switch for our kids for Christmas…. Our first game system… anyway we hoped to return it but found out that you can’t return opened games which I guess I understand… at the end of the day do your research and make sure you understand what you are getting before you open anything.

    Tried to Call the Store, Transferred to India

    Super Mario RPG is an amazing game. This review is specifically about my interaction with Best Buy. I called the local number to the store which is on the other side of town to check for the availability of the item. The local number transferred me to India where a woman called the local store to verify the availability, saying "It should be there?" The corners cut by Best Buy are disgusting.

    Easy 10/10

    As someone who has played the original on the SNES many years ago, this remake is easily 10/10. Captures everything from it and the additional super combo ability you get adds another layer of depth to the combat that was not present in the original. Combat is much better in the remake. Trying to block enemy attacks is now much easier and more intuitive. Also, giving the ability to figure out weaknesses and immunities to damage types is also a very welcome change. The updated graphics and cutscenes that exist are also very good. For those wondering, yes you can still beat the sword with Geno in about 30 seconds. If you were a fan of the original, grab this. You will not be disappointed.

    Please ignore the people that feel they should mislead someone wanting to read reviews to see if the product is worth a purchase. For some reason they feel this is the place to voice there disappointment in the store and not actually just speak about the product. This game is great! Without all the whining about preorders that should be taken up with customer service and not here this game would have a 5 star review.

    A lovely trip down memory lane

    Watching my wife play one of my favorite childhood games (that was never released in the UK) made Christmas this year extra magical! I know there are already loads of remakes and remasters out now aiming to tug on nostalgia heart strings but this one hits different. You can definitely tell the developers grew up with this beloved RPG because playing through the game you can feel the love and care that went into recapturing the magic from playing it for the first time in the 90's. Highly Recommended; even if you've played the entire game dozens of times like I have.
