I recently had $10 on my debit card to burn and decided to go to the Wii Shop Channel. Something caught my eye almost immediately: Super Mario RPG on the virtual console.

I bought it without hesitation. I know what I'm doing this weekend while PSN is down! Nostalgia time.


Has anyone else played this--or Paper Mario (originally titled Super Mario RPG 2)? I love the Mario RPG games. They're so much fun.

Have you played Mario & Luigi 3? I haven't gotten a chance to play it yet but I heard it was really good.

SMRPG is a great game, still have the music from the forest stuck in my head. Paper Mario was fun, if a bit boring at times. The best imo is Paper Mario 2.

I love SMRPG, I have it on the VC too, though I haven't played it recently. I've also played all the Paper Mario and Mario and Luigi RPG games too. I'm also really looking forward to Paper Mario on the 3DS.

I've never played SMRPG, but I have seen many videos of it and it looks like a great RPG. I love how it's the grand predecessor to all the Mario RPG games like Paper Mario and Superstar Saga.

Yes, Super Mario RPG is so much fun.  I have beaten the game and I just love using the people like Mario, Peach, and Bowser.

I saw my cousin play Super Mario RPG Legend of the Seven Stars but I wanted to play it for it's cool battles and music and that main battle theme music is my favorite.  But I really played Paper Mario on the Wii and why I bought it because I saw my cousin had it for the 64 so I decided to get it from the shop channel.  I passed the game twice but I hate it when you finish it you can't start over with your current level in battling the bosses all over again but what I was left with was just an endless The End.

I love Super Mario RPG and the Paper Mario games. I never got to own Super Mario RPG for the Super Nintendo, but I'll eventually get a copy off of eBay (the cheapest I've seen one go for in a while was $25). I rented it a couple times as a kid, but for some reason could never get a copy of it.

As far as the Paper Mario games, I don't have the Nintendo 64 version (although I played it a LOT) but I have Paper Mario: Thousand Year Door for the Gamecube, and Super Paper Mario for the Wii (one of my first Wii games). I really can't wait for Paper Mario to come out for the 3DS.

Super Mario RPG is awesome! It is hard and challenging which makes it a great game. Mario games have always been great. I enjoy playing old games and Super Mario RPG is one old game I love to play.
