The 10 Best Sonic Games

-

Few video game characters are as iconic as Sonic the Hedgehog. The speedy little blue blur has been around for over three decades, touching every corner of pop culture along the way, from games, to comics, to TV, to blockbuster movies. But we’re here specifically to celebrate the mainline Sonic game series and pick the best of them. Before we start, let’s quickly touch upon our criteria. We tried to rank these games based on a combination of historical significance, innovation, and how well these games stand the test of time. Some games, like Sonic Adventure 1 and the original Sonic the Hedgehog, for instance, are obviously super important to the Sonic series and set the foundation for both 2D and 3D Sonic games to follow, but we felt like they both didn’t quite hold up as well as their sequels when judged by a modern standard, which was why they just missed this list. The 10 games on this list are the ones we feel are the best examples of both classic and modern Sonic style. So w...

Nintendo Works to Fix Game-Breaking Paper Mario Issue

-
Nintendo has promised to fix a game-breaking issue in Paper Mario: The Origami King that can keep players from progressing through the story. Light location spoilers for Paper Mario: The Origami King follow. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/05/14/paper-mario-the-origami-king-announcement-trailer"] On Mario and Olivia's journey to the last streamer in The Origami King, players have to collect four stamps for their Spring of Rainbows VIP card in the Shangri-Spa area. After you collect all four stamps from four different hot springs, you gain access to a secret fifth hot spring. However, once you enter the fifth hot spring, the Spring of Rainbows, you lose your VIP pass. And, the other four hot springs will not give Mario a second stamp, meaning it's impossible to regain the VIP pass after you've already used it. If you try to re-enter the Spring of Rainbows, Mario will once again be asked to show his VIP pass. So, if you leave the Spring of Rainbows b...

Super Mario RPG Remake: Release Date, Gameplay Updates, and Latest News

-

A month after the side-scrolling Super Mario Bros. Wonder hits Switch, Nintendo will return to the Mushroom Kingdom for Super Mario RPG, a remake of its 1996 cult-favorite collaboration with SquareSoft (now Square Enix).

Ahead of the remake’s upcoming release, we’ve compiled this comprehensive overview of everything we know about Super Mario RPG, including its release date, price, gameplay updates, and more.

Jump to:

Super Mario RPG Release Date and Price

Super Mario RPG will be released on November 17 exclusively for Nintendo Switch. It costs $60 USD.

Super Mario RPG Trailer

The official Super Mario RPG trailer was revealed alongside the game in June. More recently, Nintendo released an official gameplay trailer. Check them out below:

Super Mario RPG Gameplay Updates

Nintendo has largely kept the gameplay systems of the original Super Mario RPG in tact: Playtime will be split between exploring the world via isometric 3D platforming and turn-based combat encounters. You’ll still battle with three characters at a time from its playable roster of five: Mario, Bowser, Peach, Geno, and Mallow. Fighting will still be initiated by bumping into enemies.

While the recipe is largely the same, Nintendo has mixed in a few new ingredients:

Action Gauge

Successful Action Commands (timed button presses during attack or defense actions — a staple of the original game) will now fill an Action Gauge (seen in the lower-left corner of the screenshot below). Perfectly timed attacks will result in damage being done to all enemies.

Triple Move

When the Action Gauge reaches 100%, you can perform a powerful, three-person attack. The specific attack will vary based on the combination of characters in your party — each possible grouping will seemingly have a unique Triple Move.

Boss Rematches

After completing the game, you’ll now be able to go back and fight stronger versions of some bosses. According to a post on Nintendo’s Japanese site, these rematches are only available “if certain conditions are met after the ending.”

Monster List

A Monster List has been added to the remake. Nintendo’s description suggests something similar to a Pokedex: the list fills up by fighting monsters and includes information on their status and weaknesses.

Easy Mode

A new way to play Super Mario RPG, Easy Mode is for those looking to progress through the story with as little friction as possible. Nintendo notes this mode changes nothing about the story and can be adjusted mid-game. Easy Mode makes it easier to level up and defeat enemies.

Original and New Music Options

You’ll be able to switch between the original background music and the new soundtrack. Both were composed by Yoko Shimomura.

Super Mario RPG Story

In Super Mario RPG, the Mushroom Kingdom is invaded by the Smithy Gang, a group of sentient weapons from another dimension. In the process of crash-landing at Boswer’s Keep, the Smithy Gang breaks the wish-granting Star Road into seven pieces. This is where you come in, collecting star pieces to repair Star Road and chasing the Smithy Gang out of the kingdom.

Super Mario RPG stars five playable characters: Mario, Bowser, Peach, Geno, and Mallow — the latter two are original characters designed by Square.

Super Mario RPG Preorder

You can preorder the Super Mario RPG remake from any of the major online retailers. You can also preorder the game from the Nintendo eShop, but it isn't a physical copy.

How to Play the Original Super Mario RPG

There are currently two ways to play the original SNES release of Super Mario RPG: with a cartridge on Super Nintendo or on the SNES Classic Edition. Super Mario RPG was also released on the Wii and Wii U eShops, though both digital storefronts have since closed.

(The initial North American release was titled Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Swords. The subtitle, absent from the original Japanese release, has been dropped for the remake.)

In our Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Swords review (for Virtual Console), we awarded it a 9.5, calling it “a classic, deep, fun and cult-appealing installment in the Mario series that no Nintendo gamer should go without playing.”
