    Mario RPG Discussion Thread

    I don't disagree because you're right, but lets be honest, is there really a significant difference between the 6th and 7th year? I mean maybe, but I wouldn't think in a year, it would slow down enough where M&L sold 1/5 of the first week sales that SMRPG had. Especially after the news of the...

    Alright being the number cruncher, I'm back now that we've seen the latest Famitsu report on Brothership. These are first week physical sales in Japan as listed on the Famitsu website. Super Mario RPG Remake: 301,334 (November 2023) Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door Remake: 115,649 (May 2024)...

    Mario RPG Discussion Thread

    I've been on such an RPG run this year and it spawned from Mario RPG being remade. But we truly feasted in the last year. I thought M&L was dead and I never would have imagined we'd get remakes of SMRPG or TTYD. I hope we get full sequels for SMRPG and PM. I feel optimistic which is kind of...

    Anyone here planning on getting M&L Brothership? I have it on pre-order. I only have played the first M&L game so getting this one at launch is big. I'm excited for it!

    Mario RPG Discussion Thread

    You are correct, that was what I was referring to. I'm really intrigued how it all pans out. My local Gamestop told me that they had more pre-orders for TTYD. At the end of the day, I hope it does well. I'm almost done the remake and it's fantastic. I had the original back when it came out. I...

    Mario RPG Discussion Thread

    Paper Mario sold 115,649 copies. At a glance, this is bittersweet. It seems like with digital, it'll far surpass most other Paper Mario entries. But looking at what Mario RPG did with 301,334, I was expecting PM to get at least that, especially with being released on the Thursday (where Mario...

    Mario RPG Discussion Thread

    Not sure if you made this or not, but either way it's super cool. I had to take about five minutes to go through the pic and look at each design and it really is a perfect representation of the game as as whole. Here's hoping we get a true sequel at some point and see some of these characters...

    Mario RPG Discussion Thread

    I won't lie, as someone who has been keeping a very close eye on this, I was hoping for a bit more of a bump in this quarter. My number I always wanted to see was 5M, which seems like a bit of a stretch at this point. But that being said, being the fourth best selling Mario RPG game... being a...

    Mario RPG Discussion Thread

    I haven't seen this until now! This was a fun video! Well I am a little bummed they didn't discount Mario RPG, but it's possible they are still seeing what they feel are decent sales and don't feel the need to. Or they just didn't want to discount a newer game, which is totally possible. I did...

    Mario RPG Discussion Thread

    That's possible. But there were a LOT of people who didn't buy it because they were waiting for a price drop. So I wouldn't be surprised for a mini surge of sales. MAR10 Day always brings decent discounts (assuming they do it again).

    Mario RPG Discussion Thread

    Yeah I thought about this myself!!! I love his content and I know he said he was sick or something. I think it's coming. Maybe I'll tweet at him or something because I'm curious too. I also hope Mar10 Day brings a decent discount for Mario RPG to give the people who didn't want to buy it at...

    Mario RPG Discussion Thread

    I don't think Paper Mario has any bearing on Mario RPG and vice versa to be honest. They ran the Paper Mario series at the same time as Mario and Luigi. I think they may just alternate release schedules, but I think if they see both as viable options for future sequels, I think they do both. If...

    Mario RPG Discussion Thread

    I don't want to get ahead of myself, but this has to be good news in my opinion. And I agree. Now let me be clear, I had no issues with the game being the same price as other new games. But I'm also a grown single man with no kids and an adult job, so I won't lose sleep over a $90 game...

    Golden Sun franchise discussion thread

    So I played the original Golden Sun a few years ago on an emulator and never really got a chance to play the second, so I was left wanting more and never got that. I bought Dark Dawn when it came out, but got maybe a few hours in and stopped playing. But with the releases of Golden Sun and...

    Mario RPG Discussion Thread

    Not sure if it's entirely relevant to this thread, but if you love Mario RPG (which I'm guessing you do if you're in this thread) you need to play the Golden Sun games that just came to NSO. I played the first one on an emulator a few years ago (and liked it a lot) and I bought Dark Dawn when it...
