So how many of you all still have your original Super Mario RPG cartridge? Do you have a fun story to go along with it?
I don't have my original copy but I know where it is. My grandmother, who lived way out in the boonies where there was nothing but walnut orchards for miles, still has an old SNES with the same, small selection of games. Addams Family Values, Super Mario World, Primal Rage, Krusty's Fun House, Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts, some dumb sports games, and of course, my copy of Super Mario RPG.
I had to live out there in a particularly trying time in my life, and there was absolutely nothing to do there. I'd go "exploring" with my brother but often times we'd just find nothing but farms and ditches. So I sat indoors and played the heck out of the two Mario games, so I know SMRPG almost front to back. I must have replayed those games five or six times when I lived there. At one point, my brother and I even took turns "voice acting" the characters... idk why but my brother tried to make Geno sound like a generic surfer dude. I'll take that as a sign that he thought Geno was cool, since his idea of cool back in the 90's was absolutely Michelangelo from the TMNT.
Super Ghouls n Ghosts was too hard for me, Rage was too short, and besides Super Mario World, I didn't care for the other games... so really, that was all I ever played there.
These days, my method of playing Super Mario RPG is the SNES Classic Edition. I also got it as a gift on the Wii shop channel, but that old wii broke down years ago. Maybe some day i'll reclaim my copy of SMRPG, but it's not really going to do me much good. I'm fine with a non-physical version... besides, I love the borders and extra functions on the SNES classic.
