PapaGenos (someone who previously reported the Metroid Prime Remaster announcement ) got direct messaged last week about a Super Mario RPG remake coming -

Adding to that, a "leaker" on Twitter, Pyoro_ND, has leaked the announcement of Everybody 1-2-Switch and Sonic Superstars says that there will be a new Nintendo Direct this week and games including a new 2D Mario and a remake of a SNES classic will be announced in the Direct.



Posting this due to these leakers last claims, but take with a grain of salt.

 

[RoboFu]

If anything ever sounded soooo fake but I wish it was soooo true..

 

[amigastar]

I want a 3D Super Mario game while Switch is still supported.

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

Uhhhh… Seems super duper important to note that a Super Mario RPG remake and a remake of an SNES classic are likely referring to the same rumor, and not two different games.

 

[Torrent of Pork]

Super Mario RPG remake!?

 

[Sojiro]

I think a new 2D Mario would be very plausible, the Mario RPG remake seems like wishful thinking though.

 

[bender]

Hopefully they switch up the look of modern 2D Mario.

 

[93xfan]

I want the 2D Mario to look like the box art for SMB3 or SMW. Beautiful 2D hand drawn gameplay and a focus on 2D exploration and not so much on multiplayer.

 

[alphachino]

Imagine a hand-drawn 2D mario developed by Studio MDHR. Would be amazing

 

[Spukc]

I want the 2D Mario to look like the box art for SMB3 or SMW. Beautiful 2D hand drawn gameplay and a focus on 2D exploration and not so much on multiplayer.

NO
what we want is new super mario bros but MOAR levels and 8 player multiplayer lobbies

 

[Astral Dog]

Im fine with the 2.5D Super Mario Bros look,just make it prettier, fix that music and up the challenge

 

[The Pleasure]

Super Mario RPG remake!?

If that lasts over three hours, seek immediate medical attention. Or a linux fanboy.

 

[hybrid_birth]

Please be Dragon Quest remake in style of Octopath.

 

[Nautilus]

Just for the hype, regardless if he is super reliable or not: There are rumours by Zippo that a Chrono trigger remake may be in the works.

He is super inconsistent, so take it with a huge grain of salt!

 

[Knightime_X]

STOP IT!

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

Hopefully they switch up the look of modern 2D Mario.

Yeah that’s an understatement. They cannot do another sequel to NSMB. It would be so tone deaf.

 

[Raven117]

Please be Dragon Quest remake in style of Octopath.

don’t do this to yourself. Don’t do this to us

 

[Puscifer]

Super Mario World that plays like a "New" Super Mario Brothers is the only real thing I could think of. I would love another Super Paper Mario platformer though, such an odd outlier in that series.

 

[Synless]

Please be Dragon Quest remake in style of Octopath.

 

[hybrid_birth]

I know they are making it. I just hope they show it off at the direct with release date.

 

[Imtjnotu]

I just restarted Mario RPG yesterday

 

[German Hops]

Is Super Mario RPG the one that featured Princess Peaches dildo?

I'm in..

 

[Efren is G.O.A.T.]

Chrono Trigger?
Earthbound in Link's Awakening art style would be neat.

 

[SpiceRacz]

 

[Azelover]

I have this eerie feeling this Direct is not gonna happen..

 

[Shifty1897]

We need a poll, is the Super Nintendo classic remake Super Mario RPG or Chrono Trigger?

 

[hybrid_birth]

don’t do this to yourself. Don’t do this to us

 

[Syphon Filter]

The last thing we need is more lame remakes, why not make a new mario rpg?

 

[bender]

...why not make a new mario rpg?

 

[existensmaximum]

I want the 2D Mario to look like the box art for SMB3 or SMW. Beautiful 2D hand drawn gameplay and a focus on 2D exploration and not so much on multiplayer.

I've wanted this since like 1993. That would be my ultimate dream Mario game!

 

[Miyazaki’s Slave]

Would be hilarious if Todd showed up with the rumored cloud version of Starfield for the Switch.

"I think ya got a hit on ya hands there chap!!!"

 

[Dr.brain64]

Super mario world 3 please

 

[01011001]

it has been a while since the last 2D mario... and that would be an OK game to bridge the time until the Switch 2 releases.

 

[GigaBowser]

 

[Thaedolus]

I’d really love to play a Mario RPG remake with the kiddo, absent that maybe we’ll just play the OG next.

 

[cartman414]

I'd rather have Paper Mario 1/2. But it's fine if they get to that later.

 

[DownLikeBCPowder]

Never have liked the repulsive and round look of the "New" style SMB. Would love a reboot to something that looks closer to the first and third game, though I'd settle for SMW style.

 

[TexMex]

Why do people keep saying there’s a direct this week like it’s been announced?

 

[Pallas]

Is it our time again!? Axem rangers baby.

 

[justiceiro]

Watch this remaster be the rumored f zero remaster. That would get the mood going.

 

[Knightime_X]

The "2d mario" and snes remake are probably leaks pointing toward the same game.
That new game \ remake is probably Yoshi's Island

 

[MrA]

Uhhhh… Seems super duper important to note that a Super Mario RPG remake and a remake of an SNES classic are likely referring to the same rumor, and not two different games.

nah man tinstar remake, you know you want it.

 

[acm2000]

Ah the remake, a developers easy way out of having to come up with anything new and creative.

 

[Raven117]

You are damn right

 

[L*][*N*K]

Really excited about a possibility of a Mario RPG, maybe we will get lucky enough to get a Mario and Luigi RPG who knows?

 

[Comandr]

Super Mario RPG is pure charm and delight. The only way I could get behind a remake is if they just redrew the sprites and backgrounds and re-recorded the music with modern instrumentation. It’s so simple and yet I feel like I’m asking for the world here.

 

[Soodanim]

Of all the games in the world, I don't think Mario games need remakes. If there's one thing Nintendo tends to get right, it's art style. But it's more than just that, and more often than not Nintendo games age very well. I'll be interested to see if they do announce a remake and what it might be.

Have you all played Super Mario World in widescreen with shaders? They could just release that as a digital title and win hearts

 

[cireza]

There is already a 2D Mario on Switch so I doubt they make another one.

 

[harry mason 1989]

Nintendo have the best first party games

 

[DenchDeckard]

Give it to me.
