The game has a dramatically different art style and has no direct story ties to Super Mario RPG, but its combat and party development resembles the 1996 game with the inclusion of action commands. Paper Mario, known as Mario Story in Japan, was rumored to be called Super Mario RPG 2 during development, and it’s easy to see why. To see us play Super Mario RPG in an episode of Replay, head here. Later Mario RPGs would push harder on the funny dialogue, but this first entry certainly set a specific tone. Super Mario RPG also set a standard of humor by pushing the Mario characters into atypical situations. He isn’t an original character, but you can also add Bowser to your party, which is one of the rare occasions where the fearsome dinosaur becomes a good guy. Unfortunately, the two haven’t seen much love following the release of Super Mario RPG from Nintendo (though Geno custom items can be used in Super Smash Bros.), but the two have their fans. Party members Mallow and Geno are not alternate forms of established Mario species and are instead totally original. It also does something Nintendo seems hesitant to do, even today: Add fleshed out original characters to the Mario cannon. Legend of the Seven Stars introduces turn-based combat with a timed-button press mechanic called action commands that allows players to counter attacks or deal more damage by pressing buttons at specific moments during the turn-based combat. Nintendo supervised the development and Shigeru Miyamoto was involved, but the game is hugely different from his typical adventures. It’s rare he is handed off to developers outside of Nintendo, and while Square Enix (SquareSoft at the time) was not the first or last to do it, Legend of the Seven Stars is his earliest and biggest departure. Mario has always been precious to Nintendo. Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars (1996)
SUPER MARIO RPG 3DS SERIES
With the recent release of Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam, we take a look at all Mario’s games that fall under the RPG umbrella and examine how the series has evolved over the years. Super Mario RPG and its descendants have story and dialogue, menu navigation, and tactical decision-making, which is basically a list of things you won’t find in a typical Mario game. Mario jumps on and over things, which is why it’s strange to consider how much success he has found in a genre so traditionally divorced from platforming.
